– An Egyptian archaeological expert pointed out an error in the Egyptian TVN entertainment show’Seol Min-seok’s Naked World History’.
On the 20th, Kwak Min-soo, head of the Korean Institute of Egyptology, said, “I am looking at the side of Cleopatra of’Seol Min-suk’s naked world history’. The maps are all wrong,” he said.
The errors mentioned by Director Kwak include the places that were set in the Cleopatra period and those related to the Alexandria Library. He also gave concrete examples, saying, “The words that Alexandros built the library of Alexandria or that a name such as Ptolemy-Cleopatra was compared to the title of Dangun, for which name was Ptolemy-Cleopatra, was really absurd.” The library of Alexandria is known to have been built during Ptolemy II, not Alexandros.
He added, “Compared to him, he said, “I have come, saw, and won VENI VIDI VICI” from Egypt to Rome, and said that it is just as aegyo.” According to him, the Latin translation of’come, see, and win’ is the word Caesar returned to Rome, who defeated Parnaques II’s Pontos Kingdom army in the Battle of Zela. He also said that there were many other mistakes, but he would omit it.
Director Kwak said, “Talking about’historical facts’ and rumors together is definitely a good strategy to draw attention when talking about history, but if what you are trying to do is not just’unraveling’, but’historical stories’, Separately, it must be clearly stated that this is true, and this is a rumor.” In addition, he pointed out that the factual relationship itself is often wrong.
He said, “I have a really big problem with the fact that it is confirmed that I am telling a’history story’ fun and just gossip with rumors,” he said. “This program conducted by Seol Min-suk is the ultimate. same. It seems that the content I asked myself did not reflect well, and just do not look at it.”
He also revealed that he decided to put his name on the credits at the end of the protest, saying, “It was really absurd and absurd that the production team couldn’t put my name on credit as an advisor in the first place.”
On the other hand,’Naked World History’, which was first broadcast on the 12th, is a program designed with the intention of digging into the history of the world that we did not know from various perspectives. Seol appears as a history lecturer.
