The Emperor Of China
I missed out some points:
NO.
満州, Manchu or however pronounce it, was first written as 満洲, and it was the name of their race around 12th Century. Then the became the name of the country as 満州.
>then I guess it’s also ok for Chinese to do that?
No, you cannot in the same way that what the Hans are doing today to Tibet, Uighur and others are wrong. There are International Laws today.
>japan never invented their country’s name, China did for them twice
No.
Wa, was a country name of its own. China only assigned the character 倭, according to their shameful practice of assigning derogatory characters on other countries.
On the other hand, both the name and the characters for Nippon, or 日本, were given by the Japanese themselves. That is why it does not sound Chinese, and nor are the characters derogatory.

The most of the similar cultures you see today between Korea and Japanese are from the time of annexation and after the War, though the Korean Peninsula's history was more or less started by the Japanese at the southern part of the Peninsula.
The surnames are coincidence. Jomon people have nothing to do with Koreans. They are D2 haplogroup.
All the upper class of Joseon was all learning Chinese characters and write in Chinese characters. Hangul was invented in 15th century, but it was for lower class. That is why there is no official documents in Hangul.
They all learned Confucianism, and everything good came from China. That is why there is almost nothing original of Korea today.
>Chinese influence did continue to trickle into Japan even into the Ming Dynasty.
"trickle into Japan." Yes, though there was no official diplomatic relation, some domains or clans were dealing with China.
But you are wrong about Geisha and Kisaeng. Geisha started and has always been art performers. Prostitution was banned in Japan after the WWII, so clients could have gone to prostitution afterwords but Geisha performed dances and music in "tea houses" although you cannot deny that prostitution could have happened in some instances. But the main was always art performing. That is why even today, their dances and music performances remains as a strong and living cultural heritage.
On the other hand, Kiesaeng. There is no art involved, and that's why you do not see any today.
Korea has long history of prostitution and human trafficking. Prostitution was only banned in 2004 and there was a very strong protests. Even this year, there was a huge protest demonstration.
There were 30,000 Korean prostitutes in US and 50,000 in Japan, in both cases the highest number by country.
