In the 15th century the city became an important fortress and was the center for trade between Japan and Korea. (Trade between the two countries was limited and sporadic in nature.) After Japan imposed the unjust Kanghwa Treaty on Korea in 1876, Pusan became the first open port, and Japanese merchants and private entrepreneurs settled there. Since 1925, Pusan has been the administrative center of Kyongsang-namdo Province. In the 1920’s and 1930’s the city developed into a major industrial center. It has played a prominent role in the workers’ and national liberation movements of the Korean people. PusanPusan
