    Hey Asian Boss!! I think a really cool subject to cover here would be Russian Koreans living in Uzbekistan (and a lot of the surrounding countries). They're called Goryeo-in (Goryeo people), and they are Koreans who fled the war and have settled in Uzbekistan for so long that they have developed their own culture. They look very korean but don't speak any of the language. the food has also evolved into a korean/russian/uzbek food fusion and is so interesting!! I grew up in Uzbekistan and was always mistaken for a Goryeo-in. Their culture is absolutely fascinating, and I would love to see some Central Asian representation on such a big channel like this :-)

      Central Asia in general has such an interesting history due to the silk road, it truly is the melting pot of dozens and dozens of cultures. the diversity in the way people look is incredible as well. some people look very european, some look middle eastern, some look VERY asian, some look mixed, there is no "foreign" appearances there. Such a painful history behind the country as well...

      I doubt the people in Central Asian countries would even watch Asianboss videos due to language barrier cuz the language they speak besides their native tongues is Russian.

A lot of the new generation people living there speak english in addition to russian and their native languages due to social media. In my experiences, when I tell people "I grew up in Uzbek", most of them don't know where it is and only get a geographical grasp when i tell them it's neighbouring Afghanistan. Even if the Central Asian people weren't as interested in the video, it would be watched by a lot of asianboss' subscribers and highlight wonderful cultures they probably have never been educated about :-)

      I read this awhile ago, these Korean would identify themselves closely with North Korea and received funding from North Korea in the early years and portrayed the nation’s founder, Kim Il-sung, as a heroic fighter against Japan. These school are sponsored by North Korea and Chongryon. Since 1957, North Korea has spent about $452 million to help finance Korean schools in Japan (according to Oh Gyu-sang, of the Zainichi Korean History Research Institute in Tokyo). These school continued to support North Korea up until today. On the opposite side, there's also Kankoku gakko sponsored by South Korea which I think is completely different. As of 2013, there were 73 North Korean grade schools and ten North Korean high schools in Japan. Furthermore in 2014, there were about 150,000 pro-North Korea Zainichi Koreans in Japan, and they form the clientele of the North Korean schools.

      I'm European and I knew it too. After the war North Korea had more money and supported the koreans in Japan and they have stayed on their side since. But I'm sure that the japanese koreans are a bit more well informed than an actual north korean. They wish like all north koreans for a united korea and have a more romanticize view of korea, it's past and future but but I'm sure they are more nuanced even though they maintain the romanticized view of a united korea. I definetly believe the principal when he says they are not indoctrinating the children, but I'm sure these children will not be as anti North and anti unification as many younger south koreans are these days

There are so many Japanese people, like Hiroko, who will shed tears with us. She is such a deeply empathetic person.

      There are two types of schools in Japan: Korean schools and North Korean schools, and the Korean schools provide education with approval from the Japanese Ministry of Education, so this is not a problem.
      North Korean schools are not approved by Japan's Ministry of Education, and they provide education that worships Kim Jong-un, so they are not recognized as schools in Japan.
      The school was established by Chosenren (communist), an organization that carried out terrorism in post-war Japan and was designated as a terrorist by GHQ and the Japanese police. He was a quasi-terrorist who exported pachinko to Japan and remitted the money he earned from pachinko to North Korea.

    Hiroko is such a great person for these interviews. She always shows her guests a ton of respect that the English subtitles don't really convey. I know a lot of Japanese people feel negatively towards these schools because of their connection to North Korea, but Hiroko is still able to empathize with the feelings of the principal and the kids of the school and treat them as human beings and not just race or label. It is easy to make enemies and cast judgment on a group, its much harder to try to find commonalities and have compassion for people as individuals especially those who have different ideological views than you do.

      That is really only the case in the last couple of decades. When my ancestors came over from Europe (Germany, France, Italy, Poland) they were discrimated against for not speaking the language. Ive heard from multiple branches of the family that many of my great, great grandparents generation forbade their children from teaching the next generation anything but Engligh. "You are in America now so you need to speak English". So much of the food and traditions that many of the later generations of immigrants are amalamations made up and are not found in the original countries of origin. For example: Corned Beef and Cabbage is seen as a traditional Irish-American dish but if you go over to Ireland they've never heard of it.

    The problem is that Japan recognizes someone as japanese if and ONLY IF they are fully ethnically japanese. It's not like in anglophone immigration countries where you can have a hyphenated identity. This means that as soon as someone reveals they are not fully ethnically japanese, he/she will immediately be labeled as a foreigner, regardless of whether he was born and raised in japan or not. So in a sense, minorities in japan are not allowed to appreciate or even learn about their ethnic culture without having to FULLY giving up forever the possibility of living as a normal japanese person, which is very sad.

      You don't understand the most important distinction between Japan (and many other countries) and the US regarding racism and discrimination.
      Of course bigotry and intolerance exists throughout the world in every culture, exhibited by individuals.
      In Japan, however, racial discrimination is part of that nation's official laws. Malaysia too (bumi putra), Korea itself has laws which treat males and females differently.
      I could go on and on.
      The point I'm making is that we need to understand when a country has LAWS which are discriminatory before we cast criticism.
      I have many Japanese friends, some who are considered 100% Japanese as well as others who are descended from Koreans who were forced into Japan and by the Japanese own laws, are classified as not being real Japanese, even though they are technically citizens of Japan.
      in striking contrast to that official and xenophobic behavior of the Japanese government, The US government embraces humans from all cultures and tries its best to allow many immigrants to become real Americans. Again, this is not true in Japan. I have experienced racism in Japan, so i know first hand.

    I read this awhile ago, these Korean would identify themselves closely with North Korea and received funding from North Korea in the early years and portrayed the nation’s founder, Kim Il-sung, as a heroic fighter against Japan. These school are sponsored by North Korea and Chongryon. Since 1957, North Korea has spent about $452 million to help finance Korean schools in Japan (according to Oh Gyu-sang, of the Zainichi Korean History Research Institute in Tokyo). These school continued to support North Korea up until today. On the opposite side, there's also Kankoku gakko sponsored by South Korea which I think is completely different. As of 2013, there were 73 North Korean grade schools and ten North Korean high schools in Japan. Furthermore in 2014, there were about 150,000 pro-North Korea Zainichi Koreans in Japan, and they form the clientele of the North Korean schools.

If these kids were given the Japanese curriculum, they would not learn about nanking, Korean comfort women or other things that the Japanese government has censored dealing with some of the atrocities committed by Japanese soldiers during WW2. Not saying the North Korean approved version of history is the "correct" version (probably isn't) but just illustrating that every kid learns the version of history approved by someone with the intent to promote their cause.

The school may self-explain as a place for people who don't want to chose between North and South Korea, but the reality is that such schools are inofficially for those close to the north. Also, the word "choson" itself means the old undivided Korea, but nowadays is used as a short for "North korea" as well, making the word ambiguous. There is no need for Asian Boss to be partial or condemning of any of this, but facts must be stated clearly for the audience.

The young kids who attend this school and even their parents may not think about it so much, but these Korean schools in Japan were established by Koreans loyal to the North Korean regime, and their university, "Korea University" in Japan, even received subsidies from Kim Il Sung, the first supreme leader of North Korea, in the past. Yes, it's great that they teach Korean language and culture to children of Korean ancestry living in Japan, but let's not forget that they also teach North Korea-approved curriculum especially to older students and even take them to North Korea for excursions and internships. As you know, North Korea is extremely hostile to Japan and to the West.

My hypothesis is that Koreans and the Yayoi Japanese are decended from the same stock of nomads from the step that settled in the peninsula of korea thousands of years ago. koreans stayed, the current japanese left. When they left, the took with them the language of the people which melded with the jomon language to create a language that is phonetically more similar to malay or even islander, but grammatically identical to modern korean (which actually was not the language back then, there was more than one language spoken on the peninusula (shilla, baekje, koguryeo)), i'm sure the grammar was very similar between the three in the same way spanish and italian have very close grammar.

As a country they never have tried to overcome this. Thus, a deep racist sentiment still lives on in their culture. Since Japan is a culture that likes to save face, they're willing to unfairly smear Chosun schools to look like they're supporters of a dictator and thus justify their mistreatment.

    LOL. In the introduction, the narrator says that the Zainichi Koreans were either forcibly mobilized (強制連行), just needed to find a way to live, or various other reasons. That is lacking in the English subtitles, which will make people think that most or all of those people were forcibly mobilized. Descendants of the forcibly mobilized are a very small part of the current Zainichi Korean population.

      This is propaganda disguised as a perfect victim.
      There are two types of schools in Japan: Korean schools and North Korean schools, and the Korean schools are approved by the Japanese Ministry of Education and provide education, so there is no problem.
      North Korean schools are not approved by Japan's Ministry of Education, and they provide education that worships Kim Jong-un, so they are not recognized as schools in Japan.
      The school was established by Chosenren (communist), an organization that carried out terrorism in post-war Japan and was designated as a terrorist by GHQ and the Japanese police. He was a quasi-terrorist who exported pachinko to Japan and remitted the money he earned from pachinko to North Korea.
      The reason why communists were smuggled into Japan from the Korean Peninsula was because the South Korean and American forces carried out massacres in Jeolla Province and Jeju Island, so the South Korean government has an obligation to take them back.

    To Clarify Japanese Vocabulary:
    Korean Speakers Scroll Down!!!
    北朝鮮 (Kita-cho-sen) lit. North Korea = North Korea and is the official country name for “North Korea”
    朝鮮 (cho-sen) lit. ‘Korea’ = It is the word KOREA and is short for 朝鮮半島 (Korean Peninsula). So it is referring to the area, NOT the country, in contrast to how in english sometimes South Korea is shortened to just “Korea”. HOWEVER sometimes, or maybe even often times, people will shorten 北朝鮮 to 朝鮮 which can cause confusion. So in another words 朝鮮 can either mean North Korea, or the Korean Peninsula as a general area depending on context. In this video’s case, when the interviewed says “I am 朝鮮人 (I am KOREAN)”, they are referring to the Korean Peninsula, and NOT the country “North Korea”. They are saying they are ethnically of Korean origin from the peninsula BEFORE the Korean war.
    韓国 (kan-koku) lit. South Korea = South Korea and the official country name as well as the most common way to refer to South Korea. As you can see it is not called ‘South’ Korea in Japanese, or else it would be 南朝鮮. Therefore, there is never confusion with SK, as 韓国 will ALWAYS mean South Korea.
    To Summarize, 韓国人 (kan-koku-jin) will ALWAYS mean a South Korean person. However, 朝鮮人 (cho-sen-jin) can either mean a North Korean person, OR a person of KOREAN decent meaning they are from the korean peninsula.
    Lengthy Explanation I know… I couldn’t leave any thing out of it though as I don’t want to stir up any political debates.
    Reference for Korean Speakers:
    I have used the word in both 한국말 & 조선말 when appropriate.
    韓国 = 한국 (한국어), 남조선 (조선어)
    北朝鮮 = 북한 (한국어), 북조선 (조선어)
    朝鮮半島 = 한반도 (한국어), 조선반도 (조선어)
    朝鮮 = is either short for 朝鮮半島 (한반도/조선반도) OR 北朝鮮 (북한/북조선).
    Therefore there can be confusion when anyone says the words 朝鮮 or 朝鮮人 (북한인/북조선인), as you would have to guess if they’re talking about the Korean Peninsular or North Korea.

    I think this video left out lots of information and sort of... poorly made.

They also have portraits of the North Korean leaders. So it is less of a I want to keep my Chosun (Pre-Korean war) identity but more of I want to keep my North Korean Ideology roots. You can see this in the video as well, if you look at the colorful posters shown at 6:26, it mentions North Korean "collectivism ideology" and the "Juche Ideology". The text books they use is also pro-North Korea. Lastly, a lot of Zanichi people have actually gone back to North Korea, and they also donate/give funds to North Korea. I think it would've been better if you guys gave more of a background information, rather than just interviewing them.

      Please consider separately the Korean Japanese who came to Japan as laborers before 1945 and the Korean communists who came to Japan after WW2.
      The people who created Chosenren were communists who smuggled into Japan after the war, and most of them were from Cholla Province and Jeju Island on the Korean Peninsula, who were massacred by South Korean and American troops and fled to Osaka, Japan. Ta.
      In fact, they are communists who worship Kim Il Sung, who lived in southern South Korea, not those who lived in North Korea.
      They often carried out terrorist activities in post-war Japan, which were thwarted by Japanese riot police and American GHQ.
      Chosun Gakko was created by the Chosun Federation.
      Chongryon is designated as a quasi-terrorist group in Japan.
      This Korean school is not a school in Japan as it is not approved by the Ministry of Education.
      Originally, the South Korean government should have taken over the people who were smuggled into Japan, and Japan also supported them to return home through a repatriation project, but they remain in Japan because Japan earns foreign currency and sends money to North Korea. do not.

I don't know what kind of agenda this school has, but I'm guessing it supports North Korea (I read it in another comment so I can't be 100% sure).

      Dimitra Papadopoulou I don’t disagree, but because young kids are impressionable and have yet to develop their critical thinking, wouldn’t it be better to delay such information? Furthermore, don’t we delay certain types of information until individuals are mature enough to handle it? To reiterate, I don’t disagree with your statement entirely. I just personally think (and could be incorrect in saying) that their education isn’t necessarily attributed to ulterior motives.
      As for this potential agenda, I found that Chosen schools were financially supported by North Korea up until 2014. Economic sanctions on the country have affected their respective capacity to support these schools. I think it’s conceivable to link North Korea to this way of teaching, however, I can’t independently verify sources that speak on this matter.

      人それぞれだと思います。私の周りだと朝鮮学校卒の人たちは子供の時から2ヶ国語に聞きなれてるから英語やその他の外国語の習得がめっちゃ早いし発音も綺麗で羨ましかった。アイデンティティに関しても必ずしも北寄りになるわけではなく、どちらになるにしてももっと自然に自分を受け入れる感じでした。

    Loved this and can relate to it as well. The good thing is that not only are the children learning about their own culture and history, they are also bilingual in both Korean and Japanese. I think that is awesome. They have two places that they can call home, Korea and Japan. Thank you Asian Boss, I love stories like these. It’s so fascinating and educational. Please do more!

    • @TakahashiTakami
      @TakahashiTakami 4 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      @grey momo I'm pretty sure it has to do with an identity thing. I mean I can relate because I'm Japanese American, but originally born in Japan, so I don't consider America my "true home" so to speak. It's understandable from my point of view. But as the young man said, whether we are Korean or Japanese, or anything else under the sun, we're still all human.

    • @TakahashiTakami
      @TakahashiTakami 4 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      @grey momo This is true. But unfortunately, it's just how we were raised in America. We were raised to call ourselves by our ancestry first, and then American. But we're proud to be Asian. I'd be more proud of being American though, if our government wasn't so corrupt.

    • @TakahashiTakami
      @TakahashiTakami 4 ปีที่แล้ว

      @grey momo Well, I mean, America isn't the only place that has racism and discrimination. Pretty much everywhere in the world has some shape or form of it.
      Also, Americans of British ancestry don't call themselves British because British isn't really an ethnicity. It's like American. American isn't an ethnicity, it's a nationality.

    • @TakahashiTakami
      @TakahashiTakami 3 ปีที่แล้ว

      @grey momo Late response, but this is probably because Europeans aka. Caucasians are the majority of the population here in America. Whereas, Africans and Asians are minorities. So we’re always having to explain that we’re Asian Americans or African Americans to others. This may go back to the history that America has with other countries and how minorities here are often victims of racism and what not.

    Did they realize that living as Chosun in Japan is much much much much much better than in their home country North Korea? Maybe better they have to integrated into Japan society like Afro American did or Overseas Chinese did (But Chinese Malaysia excluded). So they will be more accepted.

    I always liked Asian Boss videos, but here we have a manipulation of the viewers' emotions. I feel being cheated. Without the explaining of context viewers assume that the school is discriminated by Japanese media and people based on being Korean. But hold on, the problem is North Korea and its influence.
    I know, that a lot of people live in the land of pink pony and unicorns, but in the real world North Korea is actual threat for both Japan and South Korea.
    I am not saying, that children should suffer, it is obviously not their fault. It is the fault of their parents and Chongryen.

      Please consider separately the Korean Japanese who came to Japan as laborers before 1945 and the Korean communists who came to Japan after WW2.
      The people who created Chosenren were communists who smuggled into Japan after the war, and most of them were from Cholla Province and Jeju Island on the Korean Peninsula, who were massacred by South Korean and American troops and fled to Osaka, Japan. Ta.
      In fact, they are communists who worship Kim Il Sung, who lived in southern South Korea, not those who lived in North Korea.
      They often carried out terrorist activities in post-war Japan, which were thwarted by Japanese riot police and American GHQ.
      Chosun Gakko was created by the Chosun Federation.
      Chongryon is designated as a quasi-terrorist group in Japan.
      This Korean school is not a school in Japan as it is not approved by the Ministry of Education.
      Originally, the South Korean government should have taken over the people who were smuggled into Japan, and Japan also supported them to return home through a repatriation project, but they remain in Japan because Japan earns foreign currency and sends money to North Korea. do not.
      They are also involved in the abduction issue of Japanese people, so it is natural that they are hated.

    Hey Asian Boss! First of all, I'm a big fan of your work. I'm currently writing my Bachelor thesis about this topic (primarily the history of it, but also how it looks today) and I would love to see more of Koreans in Japan. I think it's a critical topic for foreigners, but also for japanese people.
