Korean Chinese In Japan
Korean Chinese in Japan, also called are ethnic Koreans who hold Chinese nationality and reside in Japan. They have "Joseon" () listed as the ethnicity on their household registrations in China, but they are simply considered Chinese nationals by the Japanese government. Korean Chinese people constitute about 10% of the Chinese population in Japan, approximately 70,000 to 80,000 individuals. Korean Chinese in Japan have very little historical connection with the Zainichi Korean community. It has been argued that the Korean Chinese society in Japan is very different from that of the Korean Chinese (Chaoxianzu) in Korea. The Korean Chinese community in Japan began to take shape in the late 1980s due to an influx of international students. This trend saw a significant increase in the mid-1990s as more Chinese people pursued higher education in Japan or other countries, marking a notable expansion of the Korean Chinese presence.

Korean Language
Korean (South Korean: , ''hangugeo''; North Korean: , ''chosŏnmal'') is the native language for about 80 million people, mostly of Koreans, Korean descent. It is the official language, official and national language of both North Korea and South Korea (geographically Korea), but over the past years of political division, the North–South differences in the Korean language, two Koreas have developed some noticeable vocabulary differences. Beyond Korea, the language is recognised as a minority language in parts of China, namely Jilin, Jilin Province, and specifically Yanbian Korean Autonomous Prefecture, Yanbian Prefecture and Changbai Korean Autonomous County, Changbai County. It is also spoken by Sakhalin Koreans in parts of Sakhalin, the Russian island just north of Japan, and by the in parts of Central Asia.

Chinese Languages
The Sinitic languages (漢語族/汉语族), often synonymous with "Chinese languages", are a group of East Asian analytic languages that constitute the major branch of the Sino-Tibetan language family. It is frequently proposed that there is a primary split between the Sinitic languages and the rest of the family (the Tibeto-Burman languages). This view is rejected by a number of researchers but has found phylogenetic support among others. The Greater Bai languages, whose classification is difficult, may be an offshoot of Old Chinese and thus Sinitic; otherwise Sinitic is defined only by the many varieties of Chinese unified by a common writing system, and usage of the term "Sinitic" may reflect the linguistic view that Chinese constitutes a family of distinct languages, rather than variants of a single language. Population The total speakers of the Chinese macrolanguage is 1,521,943,700, of which about 73.5% (1,118,584,040) speak a Mandarin variety. The estimated number ...

Chinese People In Japan
Chinese people in Japan include any people self-identifying as ethnic Chinese or people possessing Chinese citizenship living in Japan. People aged 22 or older cannot possess dual-citizenship in Japan, so Chinese possessing Japanese citizenship typically no longer possess Chinese citizenship. The term "Chinese people" typically refers to the Han Chinese, the main ethnic group living in China (PRC) (including Hong Kong and Macau SARs), Taiwan (ROC) and Singapore. Officially, China (PRC) is home to 55 additional ethnic minorities, including people such as Tibetans, though these people might not self-identify as Chinese. Han Chinese people have had a long history in Japan as a minority. Population and distribution Most Chinese people, or descendants of Chinese immigrants, who are living in Japan reside in major cities such as Osaka, Yokohama, and Tokyo, although there are increasingly also significant populations in other areas as government immigration policies increa ...

Korean Chinese
Korean Chinese, also called Chaoxianzu (; ), is the Korean (Joseon) ethnic minority group in China. They are one of the 56 officially recognized ethnic groups by the Government of China and the Chinese Communist Party. They account for the vast majority of ethnic Koreans in China. Chaoxianzu are Chinese nationals mostly born in China. "Chaoxianzu" is an official term used in China and occasionally globally. The number of Koreans migrating from the Korean Peninsula to Manchuria increased significantly in the late 19th century and early 20th century, forming their own communities, especially in the Yanbian region. Consequently, Korean Chinese have a dual identity: a national identity as Chinese and a cultural identity as ethnic Koreans. Many Korean Chinese, educated under the Chinese Communist Party's education system, often view the Korean War as the 'War to Resist America and Aid Korea,' reflecting a Chinese perspective. They are descendants of Koreans who migrated to China p ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

Joseon
Joseon (; ; Middle Korean: 됴ᇢ〯션〮 Dyǒw syéon or 됴ᇢ〯션〯 Dyǒw syěon), officially the Great Joseon (; ), was the last dynastic kingdom of Korea, lasting just over 500 years. It was founded by Yi Seong-gye in July 1392 and replaced by the Korean Empire in October 1897. The kingdom was founded following the aftermath of the overthrow of Goryeo in what is today the city of Kaesong. Early on, Korea was retitled and the capital was relocated to modern-day Seoul. The kingdom's northernmost borders were expanded to the natural boundaries at the rivers of Amrok and Tuman through the subjugation of the Jurchens. During its 500-year duration, Joseon encouraged the entrenchment of Confucian ideals and doctrines in Korean society. Neo-Confucianism was installed as the new state's ideology. Buddhism was accordingly discouraged, and occasionally the practitioners faced persecutions. Joseon consolidated its effective rule over the territory of current Korea and saw ...

Chinese Nationality Law
Chinese nationality law details the conditions by which a person holds nationality of the People's Republic of China (PRC). The primary law governing these requirements is the Nationality Law of the People's Republic of China, which came into force on September 10, 1980. Foreign nationals may naturalize if they are permanent residents in any part of China or they have immediate family members who are Chinese citizens. Residents of the Taiwan Area are also considered Chinese citizens, due to the PRC's extant claim over areas controlled by the Republic of China (ROC). Although mainland China, Hong Kong, and Macau are all administered by the PRC, Chinese citizens do not have automatic residence rights in all three jurisdictions; each territory maintains a separate immigration policy. Voting rights and freedom of movement are tied to the region in which a Chinese citizen is domiciled, determined by ''hukou'' in mainland China and right of abode in the two special administrativ ...

Zainichi Korean
comprise ethnic Koreans who have permanent residency status in Japan or who have become Japanese citizens, and whose immigration to Japan originated before 1945, or who are descendants of those immigrants. They are a group distinct from South Korean nationals who have emigrated to Japan after the end of World War II and the division of Korea. They currently constitute the second largest ethnic minority group in Japan after Chinese immigrants, due to many Koreans assimilating into the general Japanese population. The majority of Koreans in Japan are , often known simply as , who are ethnic Korean permanent residents of Japan. The term Zainichi Korean refers only to long-term Korean residents of Japan who trace their roots to Korea under Japanese rule, distinguishing them from the later wave of Korean migrants who came mostly in the 1980s, and from pre-modern immigrants dating back to antiquity who may themselves be the ancestors of the Japanese people.

Korean Chinese In Korea
Korean Chinese in Korea, also called Chaoxianzu ( zh, , p=Zàihán Cháoxiǎnzú, s=在韩朝鲜族) or Joseonjok () are Chinese nationals of Korean ethnicity who live in Korea, primarily South Korea, with a visa or after having changed their nationality. They are a diasporic community whose ancestors migrated to China in the late 19th and early 20th centuries and have since relocated to Korea. Korean Chinese in South Korea From the establishment of the Republic of Korea in 1948 until the early 1990s, there was limited governmental outreach or engagement with the Korean Chinese diaspora. Then, after diplomatic relations were normalized between South Korea and the People's Republic of China in 1992, many ethnic Koreans living in China moved back to their ancestral homeland. Inspired by the newly revived and thriving South Korean economy, Korean Chinese from various backgrounds - labourers, farmers, housewives, teachers, and even public officials - left China, chasing the 'Kor ...
