영문 초록

The objective of this research is, first of all, to understand the lives of 2 million Korean People, especially those of the women, who rapidly came close to us since China opened its doors to foreign countries. The second objective is to understand the North Korean women's lives through understanding the lives of Korea women in China who have kept a close relationship with them, in order to be ready for the reunification of South and North Korea, which is expected to actualize sooner or later, and to reduce the discord and conflict that can occur inevitably because of the differences between both countries. For these objectives, the contents of the recorded dictations of 22 women of Korean People who currently live in China were analyzed by dividing into consciousness and experiences. In the consciousness aspect, is their consciousness of nation, of people and unification, and their women's conscious mess were analyzed. The Korean women believed that they had actually benefitted from the Chinese policy of minority preferential treatment, therefore as the citizens of China, they felt a strong Chinese identity. Before the opening, they were pro-North Korea, but after the opening, the preference of South Korea was steadily increasing. The reason could be that their national pride was strengthened by South Korea's rapid economic progress but the better reason was very practical that since there was a big economic difference between China and South Korea, once they connected with south Korea, they thought they could highly benefitn from Korea in generating their income. For many women, South Korea was considered as a country of opportunities. However, due to the influence of Chinese national policy to minorities and the length of history of emigration of Korean People, the national consciousness of young women was more and more weakened. They recently started to be interested in the re-unification of the Korean Peninsula, but it was just a superficial level. Most of the women interviewed for this study had no conciousness of women's issues/problems. Even though they were suffereing from the heavy double burden of outside labor and housework, they accepted a traditional concept of duties of man and wife, and agreed with fatalism. Recently, the problems of sexual disrimination in job opportunities and child care were raised among women, especially professional women in 20-30's. But for solving the problems, they showed a resigning attitude. On the other hand, the number of young women who thought a fulltime-housewife as an ideal woman was increasing. The reality of Korean women in China was analyzed centering around their family relationship, economic activity and love and marriage. Family relationship was shifted generally from authoritative to democratic one, and the women believed that the relationship of man and wife had a key to decide whether they were happy or unhappy. Moreover they were strongly attached to their children, and felt certain that education played an important role in children's future success. The elderly women believed that it was parents' duty to give financial support to their children even though they got married. And young women took the financial support for granted, and they showed an over-protective attitude toward their children. For living and children's education, the women participated in all sorts of labor. But the younger generation they got, the weaker the occupational consciousness was. Since the liberalization of China, as the epicurian culture spread throughout the societyv of Korean People in China, the traditional sexual ethics were inclined to collapse, however, the women still kept the traditional concept of chastity. But as emotional exchange took bigger parts in the relationship of man and wife, the rate of divorce increased. Among the young women, the idea not limiting their spouses to just Korean People was widely spreading, and the major reason was because of Kore
