<p class="MsoNormal">Of the Korean intellectuals and professionals living in Berlin through the Wilhelmine and Weimar eras, some stayed on after the Nazis gained power, and a few even arrived during the Third Reich. The Berlin Koreans we discuss here established
their careers in these years, and many assumed leading roles in politics and culture in late colonial and post-liberation South and North Korea. The lecture will present concrete examples and documents of many fully integrated Koreans in NS society –from
a rather apolitical artist over a dancer and spy, to a famous composer, and all the way to an engineer of bomber engines, a race researcher in the core group of Nazi eugenicists, and a lecturer of Korean language and professional blood-and-soil propagandist-
and discusses how the presented findings come together to shake up Korean historiographic metafiction and postwar views on the NS state.
