"They can create anything because there is nothing."
I'm sure I am not the only person who thought the words associated Chosonninja.

自分のチャンネルに書いてるけどまさにこれだなw
韓非子に言う、食客の中に、斉王のために絵を描く人間がいた。王
が質問して言った。「絵画は何が一番難しいか」。答えて言うには 、「犬や馬が最も難しいです」。「何が最も易しいか」。答えて言 うには、「お化けのたぐいが最も易しいです。犬や馬というものは 、人々が皆見知っているものです。朝夕目の前で見ているものです から、これに似せるのは難しいので、それで難しいのです。お化け のたぐいは形が無く、形がないものは見ることができませんので、 それで易しいのです」

I found actual texts of the book.
Please check my blog.
>if Korea didn't have needles, how did they sew hanbok?
The book says Korea imported needles from China.

Also the use of hangul is strongly underplayed by Japanese rightists and historical reivisionists -- by some accounts, roughly 15% of Korean peasantry could read hangul by the end of the 19th century, mostly for writing their own names and such. It was also used to transcribe Chinese characters for the instruction of the children of yangban learning the Confucian classics. So how can anybody say with a straight face that it went "extinct" until the Japan discovered it for Koreans? Bullshit

Google "金箔" or geumbak, the Korean tradition of applying gilt patterns to silk clothing. So Koreans never wore patterns because the Japanese had them? This woman is a terrible fake

Either way, Joseon of 17th century (era of Hwang Jin-Yi) was much different than Joseon of 19th century, when it was weak and backward due to centuries of corrupt rule under the Qing, as well as devastation from the Manchu invasions. Read Henrick Hamel's accounts of life in Korea during the 17th century. He describes elaborate cities, temples, court life, etc. -- much of which was gone by the time of the Japanese annexation, but it was a totally different country then.
This woman is really reaching to find conspiracies in Korean dramas.... In either case, can you find a historical documentary in any country that is not full of errors and distortions? Just look at the series "Rome" by HBO in America. Where is the mention of all the slavery and hardship of the common people of the Roman Empire?
If she sticks to criticizing historians, this is fine, but historical drama makers are only for etnertainment, and nobody expects them to master finer details!

If Americans blindly believe what they saw on Hollywood historical movies then it's a big problem.

The practice of Koreans wearing white clothing was NOT universal even in late Joseon period. Look how she lies with a straight face. I hate Korean nationalist, but Japanese nationalist are such contemptible liars.

Thank you, but what she said was they didn't wear pattern printed fabric.
High class Koreans were wearing color fabric because they could buy color fabric or dye from China.
