Simply google 中朝友谊纪念章 1954 and see for yourself. 

Chinese analogue of mondvor site doesn`t exist.

Reverse reads 

中朝友谊纪念章 1954

China - DPRK Friendship Medal

But unfortunately this is a modern chinese fake.

I think photo was made somewhere between 1906 and 1909  

He died January 11, 1920

Looks like lieutenant-colonel.

Nice photo.

His actual name is

井上仁郎

Inouye, Niro

Later photo https://ja.wikipedia.org/wiki/井上仁郎

Major Inouye's awards on his bar are:

Order of the Golden Kite 5th or 6th class
Order of the Sacred Treasure 5th or 6th class
1894-95 China War Medal
Imperial Constitution Promulgation Commemorative Medal (probably)

 

 

 

Most likely 5th class kite (4th class is another theoretical possibility) 

I wonder why he didn`t wear his "Constitution" on later photo.

射較手優賞三重高農

Looks like somebody made a mistake by soldering it in the wrong place  

Unfortunately original regulation for this badge is still unknown. 

This rising sun order came from 1980+ time period.

EK is a technical mark of japanese mint.

Yes, this is Showa piece with correct case. 

This order was made before the end of WW2.

The earlier cases have "7th class Kinshisho" whereas the later (Showa) cases have "7th class Kinshikunsho" inscription. 

So the earlier inscription is shorter by one character.

George, it`s a fantasy fake. 

It combines elements of real chinese awards from republican (and warlord) period.

The enamel looks terrible and reverse has uneven surface.

Modern chinese fake.
