Isolationism

Isolationism is a nationalist, non-quadrant ideology. It believes that nations' interest are the most important, and it wants to keep the affairs of other countries at a distance.

In 1641–1853, the Japanese Tokugawa shogunate pursued a policy called kaikin. The policy forbade foreign contacts with most foreign countries. Despite all that, Japan maintained limited trade and diplomatic relations with China,  Korea, and the nearby Ryukyu Islands, as well as the  Dutch Republic, Japan's only Western trading partner for most of the period.

In the mid-1860s, Regent Heungseon Daewongun, father of Emperor Gojong, pursued a policy of strict foreign policy isolation as he strengthened the army and began to equip it with the latest Japanese weapons, reorganized the military system, transformed the coast guard. The policy of isolation has strengthened Korean patriotism and protected their culture. Heungseon Daewongun was able to protect Joseon from cultural imperialism and westernization and thus protect Korea's heritage from it. He also wanted to avoid engaging with the West, which would have been inevitable if Western countries had been allowed to trade freely, as this would have worsened the state's influence.
