Update

[edit]

WHEN WAS LAST UPDATE??? KOREAN DIASPORA POPULATION NEED SERIOUS UPDATE. WHY ARE YOU USING PAST INFORMATION AND NUMBERS???? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Kpeninsula (talk • contribs) 17:57, 17 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Good Job

[edit]

Thanks for redoing the chart, especially the part with the Korean adoptees. Republic of China (Taiwan) is NOT PRC- regarding the 4 adoptees. Look it up in International Adoption of South Korean Children. 66.27.215.103 (talk) 04:02, 1 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Kore Korea

[edit]

In Gilbert Islands, Korean sailers have sex trade with local teenage girls. It caused more than 80 babies with unknown Korean father. "Kore Korea" in local laguage means the dam the sailers have sex with local kids. It caused local government forbid Korean ship to board.[2] It is crticized by UN in 2004.

I think this should include into this article, of course, a few sailors crime should not affect the good of all Gyopo, but this is not an incident, and we have the responsibility to let people know this and take a lesson.It is good for both oversea Korean and innocent Gilbert people. But I will not add into the article unless all editor think it is necessary.--Yeahsoo 01:10, 19 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

My point is that they are not Gyopo in the first place. The term refers to overseas residents/migrants and the history of their settlement. A sailor who makes a call at a port in the Gilberts is not a gyopo. This is like calling a German tourist in New York a "German American". The information might belong in the page Foreign relations of South Korea in a section about the bilateral relations between South Korea and Kiribati. cab 01:24, 19 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]


you can write 한교 (韓) too this word can be used too


Biggest diaspora?

[edit]

I've been doing some research, and it looks like New Zealand has the biggest Korean diaspora by percentage of population. In 2006 it was 0.75 per cent of the population, surging rapidly towards 1 per cent. I'm loathe to add this to the article, though, because it's "original research". —Preceding unsigned comment added by 125.240.61.2 (talk) 06:12, 3 February 2009 (UTC) It's not "original research"- use basic math & common sense! Divide the number of Kor NZ immigrants by the population of NZ. 66.27.215.103 (talk) 11:53, 31 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]


Perhaps, someone should include a brief description of the story of overseas Koreans in Canada considering that Canada is the country with the 4th most overseas Korean (ahead of Russia) too. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Shaun Vancouver (talk • contribs) 03:21, 24 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Serious update require

[edit]

The stats and number of overseas Koreans are seriously out of date, please update them. Please note, we need to distinguish overseas Koreans in neutralized citizen, Korean passport/citizen holders temporary living in overseas, and mixed Koreans.--Korsentry 04:49, 1 May 2009 (UTC) —Preceding unsigned comment added by KoreanSentry (talk • contribs)

When did Korean emigration to the United States begin?

[edit]

The article says Korean emigration started in 1903 and in the 1800s, and neither is cited: "Korean emigration to the United States is known to have begun as early as 1903, but the Korean American community did not grow to a significant size until after the passage of the Immigration Reform Act of 1965.[17] Between 1.5 and 2 million Koreans now live in the United States, mostly in metropolitan areas.[1][18] A handful are descended from laborers who migrated to Hawaii in the late 19th and early 20th centuries." --BB12 (talk) 04:48, 8 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]

I know this is an old post, but wanted to share what I learned in case it helps others. I've researched this topic a lot recently (read a book and around two dozen research papers), and here is my understanding (min refs cause laziness, but I def will put this info in articles later and cite).
As far as I can tell, the first Koreans to ever set foot in the United States/North America were part of the first diplomatic mission sent by Joseon, in 1883. I've tried hard to research if anyone went earlier, but it doesn't seem so. One member on the mission stayed behind and studied in a US college for a few months, but if I recall went on to Paris afterwards and eventually returned to Korea. Korea maintained a few dozen students in the United States until the late 1920s, when Japan tightened its grip on colonial Korea.
Migration with the intent to permanently settle in the US did not begin until the Hawaii migration in 1903. Migration basically halted entirely around the 1920s.
In the 1940s, only 107 Koreans moved to the US; these were the family of Korean-American OSS agents. 6231 migrants in the 1950s; mostly war-brides and their children. [1]
>90% of the Koreans in the US are descended from Koreans who moved to the US after the mid 1960s.
Again, this is just my take, could be wrong in some places, but I think above is general consensus. toobigtokale (talk) 19:56, 30 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]

What role us military plays

[edit]

Having an immigrant south korean mother married to a us soldier, im curious how much of the numbers are a result of troops families moving around the world.Seems like many korean families ive met here in the united states mostly have/had US military husbands. I guess im not sure what im asking. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Cornersss (talk • contribs) 14:25, 7 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]

I’m reading this article and found the amount of information about Berger county to be disproportionately high. Why spend all those paragraphs for a Koreatown significantly smaller than LA’s K-town for example? And the citation of the most Korean restaurants in a one mile radius in the USA is a random, dated travel blog - should be removed. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2600:387:6:80F:0:0:0:AD (talk) 06:13, 4 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]

"Hanin"?

[edit]

I'm not sure we should prominently feature "Hanin" as the term to use to refer to the diaspora. Several reasons:

  • If anything, it should refer to Koreans as a race (including people in Korea), and not just the diaspora.
  • "Han" is a term used mostly by South Korea. I don't know what term NK uses for the diaspora.
  • 재외교포/재외동포 could be the terms that we prominently feature on this article, but perhaps we could just not feature a particular terms and only mention the various terms that exist.

Article needs some minor cleanup

[edit]

Some MOS:OVERLINK issues, some really dense paragraphs in the recent history section that is perhaps too biased to the American diaspora. toobigtokale (talk) 00:17, 10 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Some major cleanup; missing mentions of major groups and events in Korean diaspora history. Even the America section has a recency bias. toobigtokale (talk) 22:16, 6 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Mexico, the first time Koreans visited the United States, the first student to study abroad, South Koreans in Germany, North Koreans in Russia, North Koreans in China, and more. This article needs some serious work; would take days. toobigtokale (talk) 22:18, 6 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
