===== Economic relations and effects =====
The Japanese and Chinese invasions had ravaged Corea, leading to a sharp increase in demand for timber to be used in reconstruction and shipbuilding. In 1654, the Corean state sent a delegation to the Governor of Dutch Formosa in order to invest in new timber from the [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tamsui_District Tamsuy region]. In 1668, Corea began importing small quantities of timber from [[Siam]] and [[ColonialHistory Eastof IndiesSoenda|Java]] via Formosa. This longstanding trade was justified to staunch neo-Confucianists by portraying [[Tauland|Formosa]] as a tributary of the Qing (the Formosans sent annual 'tributary' missions to Peking, much like Corea and [[Viet Nam|Vietnam]]).
 
===== Cultural impact =====
Dutch traders and missionaries introduced Christianity, specifically Calvinist Protestantism, to the Corean populace. Christianity would come to play a big role in domestic politics, society, and education. The first official Corean church was established in 1703 in Poesjan, with the first Hansjang church being built in 1724.
 
Cuisine from the [[Netherlands]] also impacted Corea. [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bitterballen Bitterballen], various sweet pastries like ''[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vla vla]'', and Chinese Soendan cuisine were Coreanised and incorporated as regional Corean confectionaries and street foods.

After the abolition of the Sjakwang dynasty, the ideology of [[national republicanism]] became dominant in Corea. Several political parties and associations - many of them formerly persecuted by the imperial government - coalesced to form a republican administration with [[Russia|Russian]] support in the mid-1930s.
