The different flow situation of ethnic Korean homology was caused by the results which Korea' s internal thrust and the pulling of north-eastern China and Japan's role played in together, in the final analysis, it was the product of colonial rule that Japan invaded in Korea. Thrust came from a series of colonial rule after Japanese annexation and the implementation of Korea, and ethnic Korean farmers had to be bankruptcy, and the Korean domestic labor market was difficult to absorb these farmers. Pulling came from two ways; on the one hand, it was enough to attract ethnic Koreans that northeast China had a vast and fertile lying idle land and the Chinese government' s Kai jin policy, and the linked conditions of land between the two countries led the ethnic Korean drive into action; On the other hand, Japanese capitalists who had already been Modernization needed cheap labor, and the ethnic Korean were naturally attracted by all sorts of temptation. Therefore, internal and external reasons led the ethnic Korean farmers who had lost their land moved to Japan and China, then, two of the largest overseas Korean immigrant community came into being in China and Japan.Second, whether Chinese Korean or Korean in Japan were the poor farmers in Korea until moved. Northeast China was wide and sparsely populated, and there were a lot of virgin land. After ethnic Koreans moved to the northeast, they opened paddy fields and gathered to form many nation areas around the paddy fields, and created a typical rural-based society. From the class point of view, these villagers were still peasant class. The Korean people who moved to Japan, because Japan had embarked on the path of modernization at the time, was naturally into the modern chemical industry system all over Japan, kept a living by selling out the workforce, from farmer transformed to worker. Most Korean in Japan lived near the harbor and industrial mining district, and had a high degree of mixed with Japanese, and had the characteristics of urban society.Third, the Koreans both moved to the northeast China and moved to Japan were the same ethnic Koreans who were leaving homeland to live in foreign nation, as the economic life forced or unwilling to Japan' s colonial rule, the former opted China in the weak influence of Japan' s, and in the northeast carried out anti-Japanese armed struggle and national education, and made a significant contribution for the recovery of Korea and liberation of China. And the latter had chosen to Japan implement its colonial rule, most of the people carried out the economic struggle in order to safeguard the survival rights and interests, and a small number of people joined in the socialist movement.Fourth, after Japan' s defeat, most of Koreans living in northeast China, like the vast majority of other Chinese peoples have been equal treatment in political, economic and cultural aspects, especially equal share of land and become masters of the land. With the establishment of the People' s Republic of China, one of the Chinese minorities, they have gotten their own legal identity of Chinese Korean. Under the socialist system, unity and equality in the Chinese Communist Party of policy, they set up the Korean Autonomous Prefecture and countries, perform the right of national autonomous exercise, and develop the national culture education. In Japan, after the post-war, implemented the "return* policy for Koreans in Japan, on the detention of Koreans lifted a one-time Japanese nationality, Since then, they live in Japan, as the "foreigners" identity living under the capitalist system, and have long been received social discrimination, exclusion and discrimination in Japan.Fifth, Identity of Chinese Korean has a long and complex historical process, from the national, ethnic, and multi-faceted cultural relations, and Chinese Korean has gradually established on the Chinese national identity, cross-national identity of the world Korean nation, ethnic Korean identity of Chinese minority and so on, and at all levels are co-exist but not opposite, harmonized, and have different position and meaning in different international and domestic situations. Koreans in Japan have the multi-national characters, and there are confusion and crisis on national identity. The legal status of "Japanese" or "foreigner" made them caught in a dilemma when they deal with the relationship between the state and national issues. The split of Korean Peninsula led internal "the 38th parallel" among Koreans in Japan, but also caused them psychological pain . and confusion on choice of nationality and ownership of the physical and mental issues.Sixth, after ethnic Koreans have moved their residence, due to the differences of political, economic and social systems and cultural backgrounds in the host country, in particular the differences of nationality policy and national policy, Chinese Korean and Korean in Japan are divorced from the natural nation development track of ethnic Korean and embark on a different path of development. But they still have the same blood group identity and the origin of identity, at the same time both of them have maintained inextricably linked with the home countries, both adhere to the development of national education, they are also showing many common characteristics in the way of life, cultural traditions, customs and so on, So that the two Koreans societies have a homogeneity.Economic integration in the world today, Chinese Korean and Korean in Japan having a common history of suffering have become the first to the global village, their history, their experience, their vision and their awareness and so on, will become a valuable asset to build the future of Northeast Asia and even the global village. We look forward to the Chinese Korean and Korean in Japan show their charm and vitality on multi-relations between China- North Korea-South Korea-Japan and other multilateral and peaceful reunification of the peninsula, and creatively to develop unique ethnic culture and universal value, and play a role as a bridge in order to safeguard and promote peaceful coexistence of countries in East Asia and for the healthy development of East Asia region.
