중국 노비의 모든 것 | 2천 년 전 중국 노예들의 진짜 삶

Welcome to Story Station today. We often assume that China, with its vast land and large population, must have had cruel punishments and countless slaves. However, looking at actual records reveals that unlike Joseon, where 30% of the population were slaves, the number of people living as slaves across the vast land of China was merely a little over 1 to 2 percent. Why on earth did such a difference occur? In this video, we explore everything from the origins of the four social classes (scholars, farmers, artisans, and merchants) to the true lives of slaves whose lives were worth as much as an ox. If you stay with us until the end, the word "social status" will resonate with you in a completely different light.
