Pirated Version of Agricultural products
Japanese takes many years and develops a new kind. Koreans always make observation of Japan and carry the kind to Korea. Koreans always answer, “what is wrong?”.
Theft of Japanese high quality grape again
(Japan・FNN)
(November 9, 2021)
In a high-quality department store for the celebrity in Seoul City, Korea, a certain grape causes controversy recently. It is the super high-quality grape that puts on sale as the product in Korea. Its name is “대황옥” (Dae-hwang-ok). The price is about 55 dollars for 1 bunch.
In fact, “theft scandal” is raised concerning the grape. “Scandal” is that Korean stole the Japanese grape again.
It is the kind called “Horoyoi”, and it is big and slightly reddish with yellowish green skin. People say that the Korean “Dae-hwang-ok” closely resembles “Horoyoi” that had been developed in Japan more than ten years.
The press pool left from Seoul for the about 200km away town to look for the farmer who cultivated “Dae-hwang-ok” to check the truth.
When we asked the farmer directly, he admitted plainly that he cultivated “Horoyoi” without permission.
“Iizuka orchard” that cultivates “Horoyoi” in Nagano prefecture says, “The Korean act tramples our feeling for the grape that we brought up with great deal of effort”.
Yoshiyuki Iizuka, the owner of Iizuka orchard says, “We repeated terrible troubles and made the product at last. But the Korean thinks to get it easily and gain money immediately. Such an idea itself is out of common sense. I doubt Korean’s human nature. I am very exasperating.”
Cultivation of Japanese high quality grape without permission

Yamanashi prefecture developed this.
(Registered on March 25, 2013. Registration No. 22550) |
Ishikawa prefecture had developed this for 14 years.
(Registered on March 15, 2007. Registration No. 15020) |
without permission
It is “Rubyroman”. It is beautiful grape like a jewel.
This grape had been sold for 1 bunch 1.4 million yen. It is cultivated only in Ishikawa, Japan. But it was sold as Korean products in Seoul.
Furthermore, “Jewelmuscat”. This is cultivated only in Yamanashi. But this is sold as the Korean product, too.
Such Japanese high quality grapes are cultivated without permission in the town approximately 150km away from Seoul.
The Korean farmer said, “I did not get them with a right procedure. I think that I stole them from the Japanese viewpoint, but I want you to overlook it.”
The Japanese law prohibits bringing out the seeds and the seedlings such as “Rubyroman” or “Jewelmuscat” abroad.
Sweet potato “Beniharuka” - Distribution without permission extends in Korea, 40% of the cultivation area is for “Beniharuka”

“Beniharuka”
“해남 1호 (Haenam №1)”
When Korean farmers inspected a Japanese production center, some of them took a seed potato of “Beniharuka” home. That is thought to be the cause of the outflow to Korea. The cultivation began in Hainan county of Jeollanam-do in the southern part of Korea in around 2015. And in 2018, it reached 40% of the sweet potato cultivation area of Korea (20,753 hectares).
Korean “Beniharuka” costs 1, 000-2, 000 yen per 5 kilos there, and it is cheaper than Japanese products. Cultivation spread in a short term, because Korean public institution, that is, the district technology center advanced the tissue culture in the background, and it provided the cheap seedling as “Hainan 1”.
We did phone interviews to the Korean national seed center that is the organization managing the seeds about “how it supervises such a state”. The centeer answered, “The person in charge is not here now. We will reply by an email later.” However, the email does not arrive by October 14th.
- It is since old days that Korean steals Japanese farm products. Mihaya and Asumi (Japanese mandarin orange), Shine Muscat, Tochiotome and Red pearl and Akihime (Japanese Strawberries), Hitomebore (Japanese rice), Wagyu etc.. Koreans always study Japanese things and aim them.
- Even if you drop your wallet in Japan, it comes back in most cases, but in other words, Japanese are foolishly honest and good-natured.

Korean mandarin orange without permission (2018) - Jeju Island, Korea
The new kind “Mihaya” has been produced without permission. It was registered in Japan in 2014. This time the Japanese side stopped it. The shipment of the mandarin orange without permission was stopped.
This shipment stop happened also in the Korean farmhouses that produced “Asumi” without permission. “Asumi” is the kind that Japan took 22 years for its development. This is because the Japan’s National Agriculture and Food Research Organization (NARO) that developed the kind applied for the registration to the Korean government in January, 2018.
Until now Shine Muscat and brand strawberry have been produced in Korea without permission in the same way. Japan had no choice but to let it drop.
(Japan・Fuji News Network)
- It is not sure whether selling of the mandarin oranges without permission is prohibited. This is because Korea is the country of “Kenchanayo(Never mind)” anyway.
- The Korean ignores the international law without compunction. For example, Korea breaks the 1965 treaty between Japan and Korea, and the Japan-Korea agreement on comfort women. It is an untrustworthy country.
- Japanene are foolishly honest and good-natured. Japanese should know the Korean national traits.
シャイン マスカット
샤인 머스캇
It has a characteristic that sweetness of mean sugar content is 19 degrees. A Japanese research organization developed it for 30 years. It is the kind Japan boasts to the world, but, in fact, this “Shine Muscat” is very popular now in Korea.
“Shine Muscats” are done to a big pile in the prominent place of the fruit corner in a supermarket in Seoul, and you can know the popularity.
In fact, all this “Shine Muscats” are Korean domestic products and they are made without permission of Japan.
“Shine Muscats” of “the cultivation without permission” are unashamedly displayed in the shop in Kimcheon city, that is situated almost at the center of Korea and is famous for the special product of grape.
Kim Jaegyeong, the manager of Agriculture and Stockbreeding section of Kimcheon city said, “In those days when Shine Muscat was developed in Japan, Japan did not register the variety in Korea. It might be a Japanese mistake.” She added that it is not illegal to cultivate Shine Muscat in Korea.
Kimcheon city is backing Korean farmers up, making “Cultivation technology manual of Shine Muscats”.
In fact, the National Agriculture and Food Research Organization that developed Shine Muscat in Japan carried out the registration of variety in Japan in 2006. But it did not do the registration of variety in foreign countries then because it did not imagine the export.
It is an international treaty that the registration of variety of the fruits in foreign countries must be done within six years from the registration in its own country. Therefore the application time limit has already passed now. Though Korea did not bear the development cost at all, Shine Muscat is “free to produce” in Korea.
The overseas outflow of the Japanese “brand fruits” is not only this.
In the time of Pyeongchang Olympics, Korean strawberries that Japanese curling girls ate attracted attention. But the strawberries were made by taking seedlings from Japan without permission and crossbreeding them. It estimated the amount of loss of Japan for five years was up to 22 billion yen, because Korea exported the strawberries.
The export of Shine Muscats in Kimcheon city are anticipated to be approximately 100 tons this year, too.

How many times must Japanese be deceived by Korean? Japanene are foolishly honest and good-natured. Japanese should know the Korean national traits.

In the common countries this is a shameful conduct, but in Korea this is a success story. The Korean farmers who took the seedlings without permission are heroes in Korea. ( “Miracle of Nonsan strawberry”, Korea・Yonhap News)
It is same as the terrorist who assassinated the Japanese Prime Minister becoming a hero.
It is same as the Korean criminal who caused the explosion in Yasukuni shrine restroom on December 10, 2015. He said he wanted to be a hero in Korea. Koreans say “The crime against Japanese is innocent (반일무죄 反日無罪)”.
Kinds of Japanese strawberry flow out into Korea
Ministry of Agriculture, Forestry and Fisheries estimates the loss is 22 billion yen in five years
(Japan・THE JAPAN AGRICULTURAL NEWS)

This is a success story in Korea. They say “Korea turned down Japanese request of royalty and did well”.

日本・日本農業新聞
農水省によると、韓国のイチゴ栽培面積の9割以上が日本の品種を基に開発した品種。
栃木県の「とちおとめ」や農家が開発した「レッドパール」「章姫」などが無断持ち出しなどで韓国に流出し、韓国はそれらを交配させて「雪香（ソルヒャン）」「梅香（メヒャン）」「錦香（クムヒャン）」という品種を開発した。アジア各国への輸出も盛んで、日本を上回る。
農水省は、日本の品種が流出していなければ韓国の品種も開発されず輸出もできないと想定。
日本が輸出できるはずのものが韓国産に置き換わったとして損失額を試算した。
韓国の輸出額から推計して、日本の損失額は5年間で最大220億円だったとした。昨年1年間の日本産イチゴの輸出額は11億円のため、5年間に換算するとこの約4倍に当たる。
品種登録できていれば品種開発者が得られていたロイヤリティー（許諾料）は年間16億円だったと推計した。韓国には品種登録制度はあるが2012年までイチゴは保護対象になっておらず、流出前に日本側が品種登録できなかった。
品種登録していれば、栽培の差し止めや農産物の廃棄を求めることができるが、登録していないため、こうした対抗策が取れない。
(English translation)
Japan・THE JAPAN AGRICULTURAL NEWS
According to Ministry of Agriculture, Forestry and Fisheries of Japan (MAFF), 90% or more of the strawberry cultivation area in Korea cultivates strawberry developed based on Japanese kinds.
“Tochiotome" that Tochigi prefecture developed and “Red pearl”, “Akihime”, etc that Japanese farmers developed were took out into Korea without any permission, and Korea crossbred them and developed the kinds called the “Solhyang”, “Mehyang” and “Kumhyang”. Their export to each Asian country is prosperous too and exceeds Japanese export.
MAFF thinks that if Japanese kinds had not flowed out into Korea, Korean kinds would not have been developed and exported.
MAFF calculated the amount of loss, assuming that strawberry that Japan should be able to export was replaced by products in Korea.
It estimated the amount of loss of Japan for five years was up to 22 billion yen. The Japanese export of strawberry was 1,100 million yen last year. It is 5,500 million yen in five years. So the amount of loss is approximately 4 times of that.
If Japanese farmers had been able to register the kinds in Korea, they would have got 1,600 million yen a year as royalty. Korea has the variety registration system, but the strawberry was out of registration until 2012, and so Japanese side was not able to register the kinds before the outflow.
Because Japanese farmers could not register the kinds, they could not demand suspension of the cultivation and the disposal of Korean products.

Stop the pirate copies of strawberry!
At last Japanese government was moved by the TV news.
Korean farmers must pay royalty in the shipment of the strawberry of foreign seed after 2008.
85% of the strawberry which Korean farmers cultivate are Japanese kinds.
But it’s too late.･･･
Korean strawberry kinds cultivation rate overtook Japanese kinds, Royalty to pay was reduced to half.

“Hitomebore” is one of the kinds of the Japanese rice. It was named as “Hitomebore” and was registered in 1991.
25% of Korean brand-name rice chosen by Korean department of agriculture and forestry are illegally imported Japanese seeds banned in Korea.
As a result that Korean agriculture and forestry department chose 12 excellent blended rices, the first place and the twelfth place were Japanese “Koshihikari” and the fourth place was Japanese “Hitomebore”.
Because it is in violation of the law to cultivate Japanese kinds and to distribute them in Korea, that is in question in Korea now.
Do Koreans understand how much “cost”, “time” and “passion” are necessary for selective breeding, and the meaning of stealing them?
What is “한우”!!?

“한우 (Han-u)”It’s Korean beef. 2001 The sperm of the seed bull is stolen in Miyazaki in Japan. 2007 The sperm of the seed bull is stolen in Miyazaki in Japan. 2009 The sperm of the seed bull is stolen in Nagasaki in Japan. If you check the gene, you can know the facts, but Japanese Government does not do that. On the contrary, the government abolished “the examination section of breeding stock” of “National Livestock Breeding Center” that checked the gene. In 2010 Korean beef “한우 (Han-u)” started to be sold for the first time. They say it is hardly different from Japanese beef“和牛”. |
