The Iljinhoe (meaning Progress Party) was a political organization formed in the Korean Empire on August 8, 1904. It claimed that Korea could not develop capitalism on its own, and demanded a merger with the Japanese Empire. It cooperated with the Imperial Japanese army during the Russo-Japanese War.
