Where did the Korean people from Central Asia come from?

From a world historical perspective, a nation actually has a relatively fixed geographical location and living area, which basically forms a concentrated and continuous distribution. Especially for some ethnic minorities. Therefore, we can see that in China, the main ethnic minorities have their own concentrated areas, which is also true around the world. But there are exceptions. The most typical one is Korean. What many people don’t understand is why there are 400,000 Koreans in the five Central Asian countries? How do they exist? You probably can't remember it.

The Koreans are an ancient ethnic minority in East Asia, especially Northeast Asia. From the perspective of national origin, the Korean nationality was a new nation formed by the fusion of the Han nationality and ethnic minorities at that time. From the perspective of distribution, it is mainly distributed in the Korean Peninsula, South Korea, Northeast China and other places, with a total population of more than 60 million. From a distribution perspective, it's very concentrated. But strangely, according to world census, there are about 400,000 Koreans living in Central Asia, thousands of miles away from Northeast Asia. Judging from the specific distribution, there are more than 200,000 people in Uzbekistan, more than 100,000 people in Kazakhstan, and a few in Tajikistan, Kyrgyzstan and Turkmenistan, with a total of about 400,000 people. Therefore, there is a special ethnic minority in the five Central Asian countries, namely the Koreans. In fact, many people don’t understand why there are so many Koreans in Northeast Asia and Central Asia thousands of miles away? In fact, there is only one fundamental reason, and it is all because of Stalin.

First of all, these Koreans come from the Far East of the Soviet Union. These people are Koreans who fled the war and went to the Russian Far East to make a living and develop to obtain land. After World War II, a large organization was established in the Russian Far East. This was not safe for Stalin. Due to the small population in the Far East, it will be difficult to own land once the proportion of Koreans is too high. So, after World War II, Stalin forcibly moved these North Koreans thousands of miles away to Central Asia, specifically to what was then Uzbekistan and Kazakhstan. At that time, the Soviet Union specially used trains to pull these Koreans to Central Asia. Basically, Koreans are decentralized wherever the train goes.

Because of this, these Koreans remain in Central Asia forever. What kind of life are these Koreans living now? In fact, Central Asia is very poor, and the Korean people, as a minority, are largely weak, excluded from major powers, and economically suppressed. The attitude of the five Central Asian countries is consistent, advocating the complete assimilation of the Korean people. It's best to blend in directly with the locals, that's the basics. So now more and more Koreans in Central Asia cannot speak their mother tongue and are gradually integrating into the local ethnic groups. Based on this trend, Koreans in Central Asia are likely to disappear completely in the future.
