How greatly the Japanese invaders coveted and plundered the Korean books was proved by the fact that the books rare in Korea were discovered in Japan from time to time after the war.

A Japanese academician told: We have to consider sincerely about the great deal of rare Korean books in possession of Japanese feudal lords across Japan.

The books Japanese plundered from Korea are kept in the Japanese diet library, cabinet archive, university libraries and many other places.

The plunder of many books from Korea during the war greatly affected the development of science and culture in Korea after the war.

The Korean King gave an order to Hongmungwan following the war and had to take measures to obtain across the country those books so plentiful before the war like Ryokdaebyongyo, Hunmongjahoe and etc.

The Japanese plunder of the Korean books during the Imjin Patriotic War was really an unprecedented heinous inhuman criminal act.
