Historically, trade between Ko카지노일번지rea and Japan was usually hampered by piracy. The Japa바카라일번지nese wako pirates would routinely raid Korean and Chinese coasts, while the Japanese authorities seemed powerless to stop them. China responded by declaring war on the pirates, ambushing them and burning their ships. The Chinese also attacked known pirate bases and beheaded those they captured.
