Taki Kumejiro was born into a family whose business was a fertilizer business, took over and managed it. In 1885, he founded a fertilizer factory himself and grew into a capitalist in Japan. Based on this business, it entered Joseon in earnest from the mid-1910s. He was transformed into a large landowner by making a farm based in Gimje and Mangyeong Plain areas in Jeollabuk-do. In addition, he started his business in Joseon with an interest in forest and mining. Among them, he focused on agriculture and forestry. All of these businesses were closely linked to fertilizer manufacturing, the foundation of his capital accumulation. As was the case with most Japanese landlords who lived in Joseon, Taki also harshly exploited tenants to make the most profits in farming management. Most of them were Korean tenant farmers, but in the end, the tenant farmers caused a large-scale tenant dispute. And it was not just for a living, but also for resisting ethnic discrimination. Based on his reputation and great capital in his hometown, Taki first ran for the 10th House of Representatives election of the Imperial Japanese Parliament in 1908, and was elected. And he ran six times until the 18th general election of the National Assembly in 1932, and was elected. He mainly proposed the 'agricultural bill' and 'rice bill' to the imperial parliament. These were all closely related to the business that he was doing. Regarding Joseon, he proposed to the National Assembly the issue of suffrage of Japanese and Koreans living in Joseon and industrial development. This was all about colonial rule policy. Most of the members of the Imperial Assembly related to Joseon are groups that pursue their own interests related to Joseon while pursuing the interests of the empire. Therefore, they sometimes criticized and opposed the Japanese government's colonial policy. And sometimes they collaborated with the Japanese government. Therefore, Taki must be a member of the National Assembly who knows Joseon well, a colonial lobbyist who communicates the needs of the Japanese people living in Joseon to the Japanese government, and at the same time, an imperial lobbyist who proposes or proposes legislation for his own benefit.
