 Considering the number of influences of Koreans residing presently in Japan, it is very important to study their history. Nevertheless, such a study has been relatively neglected for their status and historical peculiarity. This study is a basic research that reflects this negligence and lays the foundation that will ensure an academically firm status of Koreans living in Japan based on the Korean history.
