How did Zhou Enlai end up receiving a fairy objective evaluation from the Chosun Daily Newspaper (Chosun Ilbo) during the Cold War Era? This paper analyzes several editorials written by the Chosun Daily Newspaper during the Cold War Era that discuss Zhou Enlai’s diplomatic activities. In particular, seven editorials, two from 1954 and one each from 1957, 1958, 1970, 1971, and 1976, as well as various reported content released before and after the aforementioned editorials, were utilized to review what the position and claims of the Chosun Daily Newspaper were. In these editorials, the Chosun Daily Newspaper commented on the diplomatic activities of Zhou Enlai because they were directly related to Korean interests.
The results of this analysis were that most of the editorials stated Zhou Enlai’s claims lacked authenticity and his intentions to invade were wrapped under the guise of peace. In addition, the strange role that Zhou Enlai took as he travelled between the Soviet Union and Eastern Europe was seen as a communist deception. The Chosun Daily Newspaper criticized Zhou Enlai’s international activities as being deceitful, disguised, an antilogy, a paradoxical role, an infiltrated strategy, etc. However, after his death, he was given the evaluation of “peace salesman” and “diplomacy advisor.” Is this the least objective assessment of the deceased?
