How Koreans live in Crimea (video). Carrots don’t grow in Korea, but carrots are the calling card of the Crimean Koreans. A lot depends on the chairman

The Korean movement on the peninsula began in 1995. And all these years, the organization has been building friendly bridges both with its historical homeland and with other national communities. Therefore, Belarusians, Ukrainians, Armenians, Georgians, Azerbaijanis, Estonians and Germans came to celebrate the anniversary of the creation of the Korean community in Crimea. Why the first anniversary?

After a year of work

There are three dates in a Korean’s life that he must definitely celebrate: the child’s birthday, the children’s wedding, and the parents’ anniversary. Today marks the one year anniversary of our autonomy, and this is important because we have laid the foundation for further productive and long-term work,” said Vladimir Kim, Chairman of the National Autonomy Council.

It seems that it is impossible to do much in a year, but this is unless you know about the hard work and determination of the Koreans.

The work was colossal, and much of the credit goes to my predecessor Vladimir Ten. We held a lot of events, signed a cooperation agreement with the University of Economics and Management, on the basis of which we will create a center for Korean language and culture. We took part in the People’s Friendship Parade, gathered a team for the “Race of Heroes”, it was hard, of course, but we reached the finish line in full force. We have the power of unity,” said Alexander Du, the newly elected president of the Regional National Autonomy of Koreans of the Republic of Kazakhstan.

Nice for parents

According to Korean customs, when celebrating a child’s birthday, various objects are laid out around him - whatever he reaches for, that’s what he will do. However, the leaders of the Korean national autonomy did not carry out such traditional fortune-telling, because the main task of the organization had already been determined: the revival of ritual culture and language learning.

Koreans have not spoken their native language since 1937 because the Soviet government did not encourage learning it. And I am very glad that now national-cultural autonomies are being created throughout our country to pay tribute to their nation, their traditions and their culture. This is an attempt to revive a language that, unfortunately, has become foreign to us for a long time,” said the famous politician Lyubomir Tyan, who twice held the mandate of a deputy of the State Duma of Russia.

Koreans who attended the holiday believe that it is a little shameful not to know kind words to say something nice to your parents or greet a friend. The General Director of the All-Russian Association of Koreans, Vyacheslav Kim, agrees with them:

Koreans, we believe, are an integral part of Russian culture. And our culture has integrated very well both into Russian and into the culture of other nationalities. Our country is very rich, multicultural and multi-religious, and we are happy to live in it. The best possible conditions have been created for our diaspora for the development of national culture, the revival of customs and language.

The welcoming holiday of the Crimean Koreans demonstrated precisely this mutual cultural enrichment of the peoples of the peninsula in all its breadth. The audience was captivated by the enchanting melodies and leisurely smooth movements of traditional choreography. Like a pleasant dream, “Sebyok” (“Dawn”) flowed on the stage, one could feel the light breath of “Sarane Param” (“Wind of Love”) performed by dancers in bright national costumes of two wonderful groups “Arirang” and “Kum Gan San”. However, Korean culture captivates not only with its tenderness, but also with its amazing firmness: this was demonstrated by the demonstration performances of young Crimean taekwondo athletes.

The diligence and hard work of Koreans is known not only in the cultural life of the peninsula - their farms produce 3-4 harvests a year in the difficult farming conditions of northern Crimea.

Just in case, I’ll indicate my priority: I was the first (since 1997) to praise in my publications among the wonders and delights of the Crimean holiday Crimean Koreans.
To be honest, I don't know many Koreans from Korea. And I'm not even very interested.
I’ve had enough of the immortal quote from the Civil Defense song about Comrade Kim Il Sung: “ I bought the magazine "Korea", it's good there too…»
I love a Korean from St. Petersburg Viktor Tsoi. And I love Crimean Koreans, but for a different reason. Because of the carrots. Carrots are positive. When I was little, we were taught in kindergarten to sculpt carrots from plasticine. Of course, there wasn’t enough orange plasticine for everyone, and most of them sculpted green, blue and brown carrots. But it was enough for me. I sculpted a high-end realistic orange carrot.
Today at the market, when my gaze fell on the carrot, and then on the seller (he was a blond man of Slavic appearance), I did not feel ready to buy.
And only when I saw a “face of Korean nationality” - female and with a normal eye shape and normal hair color, everything fell into place.
And among other positive things, I received two important “messages” from her:
1. Carrots don't grow in Korea
2. "born in the USSR«=» We're the same blood»

I cannot imagine Crimea without Koreans, Koreans born in the USSR.

Once again, just in case: Victor Tsoi and his first group " Garin and Hyperboloids “- this took place as a phenomenon of Russian culture in Crimea (specifically, the village of Morskoye, Sudak region).

Therefore, in our project we will begin collecting materials about Soviet Koreans. As I understand it, I personally have in common with Koreans from different CIS republics the Russian language. This is surprising only at first glance. In fact, this fact provides insight into linguistic processes and other historical eras. Again: Koreans, who by the will of Fate found themselves outside their homeland, are now Part of the Russian World. For our Koreans, the Russian language is the basis of life. Victor Tsoi- this is no exception, this is a natural development of events, this is a natural response of the potential of the Korean nation to the dynamics of Russian life.
Well, without any pathos: the Korean component in the modern Crimean tourism industry is good and deserves attention.
More than 3,000 ethnic Koreans currently live on the territory of the Crimean Peninsula. The most compact ones are in Simferopol, Dzhankoy and Krasnoperekopsk. 85% of them are employed in agricultural production. Since 1995, the Crimean Association of Koreans “Kore” has been actively working in Crimea.

Koreans of the CIS: pages of history

1. From the beginning of resettlement to Russia until the revolution of 1917

Koreans have been living in Russia and other CIS countries for a century and a half now. There are a lot of them - almost half a million, but even today only a few know about how and when Koreans ended up in Russia, what their history was, and what problems the Korean community faces now.
A series of three articles is dedicated to the history and current situation of Koreans in the CIS, the publication of which we begin in this issue.
In 1860, Russian diplomats decided to take advantage of the crushing defeat that Anglo-French troops inflicted on China in the Third Opium War and forced the Chinese government to sign the Treaty of Beijing. In accordance with this agreement, China ceded to Russia vast and sparsely populated territories on the right bank of the Amur - lands that we now know as Primorye. One of the consequences of this decision was that Russia now has a short, about 14 kilometers, border with Korea. And just 4 years later, in 1864, the first Korean village appeared in these new territories, in which 14 Korean families lived. With these 14 families, the history of not only the village of Tizinghe, but also the entire half-million Korean community of the CIS began.

What caused the Korean emigration to Russia? The same thing as most emigrations - need. People are generally not very willing to part with their homes. This especially applies to the peasants, who at all times and in all countries had a reputation as leisurely and tight-fisted homebodies - and it was the peasants who at first made up the overwhelming majority of Korean emigrants. However, life on the native side was not too sweet. There was not enough land, and officials exacted huge taxes from the peasants, sometimes reaching up to 50% of the harvest. The official tax rate was much lower, but a significant part of what was collected ended up in the bottomless pockets of bureaucrats, and the peasants could not do anything about it. And nearby lay the Russian possessions - vast expanses, thousands of hectares of uncultivated fertile land, governed by relatively honest officials (however, usually officials at first simply did not get to the villages of illegal immigrants). And peasant families went beyond the cordon, across the almost unguarded border in those days, and the number of Korean villages on the lands of the Russian Far East grew. By 1880, there were 21 Korean villages in Primorye, and the Korean population of the region reached 6,700 people (there were only 8,300 Russian peasants in Primorye at that time). By 1901, about 30 thousand Koreans already lived in the region.

How were Korean immigrants greeted in Russia? Differently. On the one hand, Russian officials welcomed immigration - after all, the Korean migrants raised virgin soil and reaped considerable harvests, thus helping to solve the food problem and develop the vast deserted region. This was especially important before 1900, when the Trans-Siberian Railway had not yet been built, and there were very few settlers from Russia in the Far East. Officials wrote with delight in their reports about the hard work of Korean peasants, about the enormous yields on the lands they were developing, about the honesty and law-abiding nature of the new settlers.

However, there was another side - the “yellow” migrants were perceived by the authorities in the Far East as a potential threat, as a kind of “fifth column”. The regional administration feared that the settlement of lands by “Asians” would eventually become the basis for territorial claims against Russia on the part of its Asian neighbors. In short, Korean immigrants were treated much the same as Chinese immigrants are treated now. That is why I could not help but smile when, not so long ago, in a newspaper published by Koreans in the CIS, I read a report from Sakhalin, full of complaints about the “dominance of the Chinese,” who “flooded the Far East” and “intended to settle there.” A century ago, in exactly the same tone (and almost in the same expressions!) the newspapers wrote about the ancestors of the authors of this article...

As a result, policy towards settlers was very inconsistent. Much depended on the personal views of the Governor-General. The enemy of the Koreans was N.A. Korf, who was the governor-general of Primorye in the 1880s. On the other hand, Governors-General S.M. Dukhovsky (1893-1898) and N.I. Grodekov (1898-1902) encouraged Korean immigration and gave large plots of land to Korean peasants free of charge. P.F. Unterberger, who replaced them in 1905, was an opponent of the Koreans and returned to the discriminatory policy of Korf (somehow it turned out that the Russian German governors-general did not like the Koreans). The Korean authorities also tried to prevent resettlement to Russia, because they were dissatisfied with the fact that potential taxpayers were leaving the border. From time to time, Russian and Korean officials even tried to jointly fight Korean immigration to Russia.

However, the Korean community in the Far East grew rapidly. The pull of Russia, with its land abundance and relatively honest administration, was too strong, and it was almost impossible to close the border tightly with the technology of that time (no one, however, tried). By the milestone year of 1917, more than 90 thousand Koreans were already living in Russia, and in the Primorsky Territory they made up almost a third of the total population. The main center of immigrant settlement was the Posyetsky district, located near Vladivostok, on the very border with Korea. Korean settlers accounted for up to 90% of the total population there. By the beginning of the 20th century, numerous Korean schools operated in the Far East, newspapers were published, and publishing houses operated. In addition, Russia also became a center of political emigration. After 1905, when the Japanese colonialists actually took control of Korea, opponents of the Japanese began to leave for Russian territory. The partisan detachments defeated by the Japanese also took refuge on Russian territory. Even entire units of the Korean regular army went to Russia, who refused to obey the order given by the Japanese to disarm the Korean national armed forces and resisted the Japanese troops to the last.

Under the new conditions, Russia became not only the main center of resistance to the colonialists, but also an important center of Korean culture. After 1910, in Korea itself, the colonial authorities practically banned book publishing and education in the Korean language, and in other countries at that time there were practically no Korean communities (the resettlement to China was just beginning, and in Japan and the USA there were no Koreans at all at that time). The Russian Far East was one of the few places where Koreans could relatively freely publish literature in their native language, conduct educational activities, and even engage in politics. However, caution had to be exercised with policy, since after 1907 the Russian authorities set a course for establishing friendly relations with Japan and suppressed too energetic anti-Japanese activities on their territory. These relative freedoms attracted many leaders of the anti-Japanese resistance to Russia. However, the majority of immigrants were still peasants from the impoverished provinces of northeastern Korea, who were driven to Russia not so much by Japanese repression as by ordinary need.

The Korean movement on the peninsula began in 1995. And all these years, the organization has been building friendly bridges both with its historical homeland and with other national communities. Therefore, Belarusians, Ukrainians, Armenians, Georgians, Azerbaijanis, Estonians and Germans came to celebrate the anniversary of the creation of the Korean community in Crimea.

PETER VOLKOV, KRYO SINMOON (USSURIYSK), 09/19/2012

There is a beautiful and majestic peninsula on the Black Sea, which Homer mentioned. Mesmerizing mountains and forests, free steppes, a fertile resort southern coast, bays, the largest of which is the sea gate of the hero city of Sevastopol and is considered the most convenient in the world for naval ships, numerous palaces of past centuries, monuments of ancient times, which people come to see every year millions of tourists, a wealth of fauna - all this is a reason for great pride for the peoples of the Autonomous Republic of Crimea.
And representatives of many nationalities live here in peace and harmony: Ukrainians, Russians, Tatars, Armenians, Greeks... There are also Koreans.

For many centuries, the Korean people were under the rule of the Mongols, Chinese, and Japanese. Endless internal strife, wars, and famine forced some Koreans to seek refuge in foreign lands. Some of them ended up on Crimean land. According to the census of the ethnic composition of the population of Crimea, the number of Koreans, for example, in 1926 was only 13 people, and in 1979 it was already 1535, in 1989 - 2423 people. According to the population census conducted in December 2001, there were 2,870 Koreans living in the Autonomous Republic of Crimea. Now - about 5 thousand.

Much depends on the chairman

Created in March 1995, the Crimean Association of Koreans “Koryo” is one of the most active in Ukraine. And it is no coincidence that the All-Ukrainian festivals of Korean culture “Koreada” have already been held twice in Crimea, which, as is known, require very significant organizational efforts from local branches. Moreover, they were carried out at a high level. And in the autonomous republic itself, as we found out in the Republican Committee of the Autonomous Republic of Crimea for Interethnic Relations and Deported Citizens, which oversees the diaspora of the peninsula, the Korean one is among the best. Considerable credit for this, and perhaps even the main one, belongs to the permanent chairman of the association, 40-year-old V.A. Kima.

Vladimir Alekseevich was born here, successfully graduated from high school, served in the Army, received a higher economic education at Simferopol State University. M.V. Frunze. He was the head of a department at LLC "Ling-Big" in Simferopol and the company "Apex Crimea", held the positions of director of the company "Bella" and the private enterprise "Tiare-S", then the manager of the executive committee of the Kyiv District Council, also in Simferopol. And for the third year now he has been the first deputy chairman of the Simferopol regional state administration. He enjoys well-deserved authority in the republic, in cities and regions. Energetic, responsible, with a good understanding of people, he managed to select and unite a large group of like-minded people and mobilize them for effective work. Hence the results.

Association and its affairs

Our Crimean Association of Koreans “Koryo” is part of the Association of Koreans of Ukraine and the Crimean Republican Foundation for Interethnic Harmony, says Vladimir Alekseevich. - In 15 regions of the republic there are primary organizations (I emphasize: they are active!), including in the cities of Simferopol, Dzhankoy, Evpatoria, Krasnoperekopsk, Sevastopol, Feodosia, Yalta, as well as in Dzhankoysky, Krasnogvardeysky, Kirovsky, Leninsky, Pervomaisky, Simferopol and Soviet districts.

One of the main objectives of the association is to promote the development of economic, trade, cultural and scientific ties between Ukraine and the two Korean states, and strengthen interethnic cooperation in Crimea.

As part of the educational program, Sunday schools were organized in Dzhankoy, Yevpatoria, Krasnoperekopsk and Simferopol to study the native language, the history of the Korean people, traditions and rituals of national culture. However, I admit: there are enough problems here. The main one is the shortage of qualified Korean language teachers. As for amateur artistic groups, they have been created at almost all lower levels and take an active part in festivals of Korean culture. The Korean folk ensemble from Krasnoperekopsk, for example, traditionally takes prizes among dance groups. Creative groups of the Koryo Association annually give charity concerts.

We celebrate national holidays in an interesting and fun way. We consider the most important of them to be the Sollal holiday - the celebration of the New Year according to the lunar calendar.

Financial support for the ongoing events, and this is a very important factor, is provided from the republican budget through the Republican Committee for Nationalities and Deported Citizens of the Autonomous Republic of Crimea, as well as from membership fees and sponsorship funds.

The Association actively participates in all joint events held by republican national and cultural societies. Be it the Crimean Tatar holidays “Khydyrlez” and “Derviza”, the Armenian “Vardavar” or “Eleftheria 2012”, held on June 2 in honor of the 10th anniversary of the Greek community. And, of course, we widely celebrate the Day of the Autonomous Republic of Crimea (January 20) - a holiday for all residents of the peninsula.

We maintain close ties with cultural centers of ethnic Koreans in Moscow, St. Petersburg, Tashkent, Alma-Ata, and cooperate with representatives of religious missions from the Republic of Korea. We have established good contacts with the Embassy of the Republic of Korea in Ukraine.

Small but bold

I couldn’t help but ask the chairman about the best grassroots cells of the association.

- I don’t want to single out anyone especially. Everyone works conscientiously. And this is one of the reasons that we are in good standing in Ukraine. Well, if you really insist, tell us about the Evpatoria Koreans. Their leader Florida Caen within a few years she was able to organize the work in such a way that they started talking about it even in Kyiv,” says Vladimir Kim. That's exactly what I did.

For a resort city of 114,000 people, there are only 120 Korean families, which in 2005 united into the cultural-national society “Koreana”.

But it’s not for nothing that they say: small, but daring. Thanks to the tireless energy and excellent organizational skills of school No. 1 teacher F.V. Kan, the new public organization quickly gained great authority among the Evpatorians. In addition to studying their native language (the community has its own class in the school, which is attended every Saturday by both adults and children from the second to the ninth grade), culture, and customs of its people, “Koreana” participates in city-wide events, where they perform with great success Children's vocal ensemble and other amateur artists performed Korean folk songs.

Koreans in the city are respected by both the townspeople and the authorities. It was with the support of the City Executive Committee that, for example, the year before last in February, the Days of Korean Culture, dedicated to the 5th anniversary of the creation of the Korean society “Koreana” in the city of Evpatoria, were widely held and long remembered by residents. The day before, the head of the city A.P.

Events related to the hard times of war are also held in Crimea. Our newspaper has already reported on the publication in Moscow of the book “Soviet Koreans on the Fronts of the Great Patriotic War of 1941-1945,” in which, for the first time in the historiography of the Great Patriotic War, Korean studies in Russia and the CIS countries, biographical sketches were published about 372 Soviet Koreans who fought against the German invaders. This significant work was prepared for publication by a team of authors from the Institute of Oriental Studies of the Russian Academy of Sciences - Dmitry Shin and Valentin Tsoi, led by the authoritative historian-researcher Boris Pak. Two copies of this publication were transferred to the Crimea, to the fund of the Razdolnensky central regional library, which served as the reason for the presentation of the unique collection. Moreover, this book contains a chapter dedicated to the family of underground partisans Kim, who lived in the Ak-Sheikh (now Razdolnensky) region during the war. A street in the village and several villages in the region was named in honor of partisan Anton Kim.

The Kim family did a lot to undermine German power in Razdolnoye. The elder brother Alexander was the leader of the underground group in the region, his wife Anna Petrovna and his mother Ekaterina Khvan helped him, two brothers went to the front. The younger brother, Komsomol underground member Anton Kim, carried out important tasks, sailed across the Karkinitsky Gulf, delivered intelligence data to headquarters, and transported weapons and ammunition back. On February 28, 1944, Anton Kim, commander of the sabotage and subversive group "Spartak", while rescuing scouts, diverted the attention of punitive forces and died while performing a combat mission. Already dead, the Nazis arranged a meeting between the mother and her son. But she had the willpower to withstand this torture and answer that this was not her son. Despite the fact that the gendarmerie failed to get his mother and older brother to confess to identifying Anton’s corpse, the gendarmes shot Alexander and threw his body into a well. Four sons were blessed by their mother for a just cause. And all four - Alexey, Andrey, Alexander and Anton - gave their lives for the sake of Victory.

Librarian Galina Novikova and her colleague Nadezhda Alyaeva told those gathered at the presentation about this and much more, who provided great assistance in preparing the book by collecting information about the family of the Kim brothers, active participants in the partisan movement in Crimea.

The presentation was also attended by activists of the Korean diaspora Galina Yun and Alexandra Khan from Dzhankoy, who also took part in collecting information for the book in their region. Speaking, they expressed gratitude to the workers of the regional library for the research work and emphasized the importance of historical justice in relation to all those who died on the battlefields with the Nazis.

As the Korean poet Lee Eun-nyong wrote in one of his poems: “The star will shine, the flowers will bloom, and people will live in peace.” Crimean Koreans have long adopted these wonderful words and are directing their activities towards the mutual enrichment of cultures of neighboring peoples, preserving national identity, promoting peace and harmony in the Autonomous Republic of Crimea.
