Dutch influence in Corea became firmly rooted in the southern city of [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Busan Poesjan] and the wider [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yeongnam Jangnam] region. King Hjandjo would later cede [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yeongdo_District Yjang island], a district off the coast of Poesjan, to the Dutch East India Company as a trading post in 1710. In 1713, a formal Dutch colonial authority was established in the city structured after the administration in [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dejima Desjima]. The Japanese immigrant town of [https://ko.wikipedia.org/wiki/%EC%B4%88%EB%9F%89%EB%8F%99 Tsjorjang] was incorporated by 1800. It would eventually expand to include all of modern central and southern Poesjan by 1840.

However, Dutch control of Poesjan became extremely controversial and a major point of contention for centuries. Many officials and scholars pointed to the [[History of Japan#%25C5%258Cmura%20Rebellion%20(1656-1658)|Ōmura Rebellion]] in Japan, which began with Christian influence in mainland Japan.
