The Kingdom of Joseon (Chosŏn'gŭl: 대조선국; hancha: 大朝鮮國, literally "Great Joseon State"; also Chosŏn, Choson, Chosun) was a Korean kingdom founded by Yi Seonggye that lasted for approximately five centuries, from July 1392 to October 1897. It was officially renamed the Korean Empire in October 1897. It was founded following the aftermath of the overthrow of Goryeo in what is today the city of Kaesong. Early on, Korea was retitled and the capital was relocated to modern-day Seoul. The kingdom's northernmost borders were expanded to the natural boundaries at the Yalu and Tumen Rivers through the subjugation of the Jurchens. Joseon was the last dynasty of Korea and its longest-ruling Confucian dynasty.
During its reign, Joseon encouraged the entrenchment of Chinese Confucian ideals and doctrines in Korean society. Neo-Confucianism was installed as the new dynasty's state ideology. Buddhism was accordingly discouraged and occasionally faced persecutions by the dynasty. Joseon consolidated its effective rule over the territory of current Korea and saw the height of classical Korean culture, trade, science, literature, and technology. However, the dynasty was severely weakened during the late 16th and early 17th centuries, when the Japanese invasions of Korea (1592–98) and the first and second Manchu invasions of 1636 nearly overran the Korean Peninsula, leading to an increasingly harsh isolationist policy for which the country became known as the "hermit kingdom". After the end of invasions from Manchuria, Joseon experienced a nearly 200-year period of peace.
Jung Il-woo (Hangul: 정일우; born 9 September 1987) is a South Korean actor. He is best known for his roles in the sitcom Unstoppable High Kick (2006), and the television dramas The Return of Iljimae (2009), 49 Days (2011), Flower Boy Ramyun Shop (2011), and The Night Watchman's Journal (2014).
The son of a former television news anchorman, Jung Il-woo studied Broadcasting at the Seoul Institute of the Arts, then later dropped out and transferred to the Theater and Film department of Hanyang University.
In August 2006, Jung sustained injuries in a serious car accident while riding with childhood friend and fellow actor Lee Min-ho, who was badly injured in the accident.
Jung made his acting debut in 2006 with a minor role in the thriller The World of Silence, but he first rose to fame playing a rebellious teen and motorcycle fanatic with a crush on his teacher in daytime family sitcom Unstoppable High Kick. He then joined the ensemble cast of 2007 romantic comedy film My Love.

No matter what happens today
You can't let nothing hold you down
And it's not what they say
So be strong because your moment is now
Let the wind lift your dreams up to the sky
Cause the storm in the desert has arrived
No matter what
We stand tall
Yalla Asia one and all
[Chorus]
Yalla Asia Yalla Asia
Yalla Asia Yalla Asia
Asia Asia (Asia)
[Karl Wolf]
Write all your fears there in the sand
And then let them all wash away
Your turn is here
Part of the plan
Now let's start upon this beautiful day
Let the wind lift your dreams up to the sky
Cause the storm in the desert has arrived
No matter what
We stand tall
Yalla Asia one and all
[Chorus]
Yalla Asia (Yalla Asia)

From small beginnings we can make a gripping row
That in this one small stair we'll go
A thousand miles
Never thought of now
The game is on
Just believe and follow your true colors
Shout out "Yalla Asia"
[Chorus]
Yalla Asia (Yalla Asia)
Yalla Asia (Yalla Asia)
Yalla Asia (Yalla Asia)
Yalla Asia Asia Asia
