<p class="MsoNormal">This colloquium is a part of the AKS Strategic Research Hub Programme in Korean Studies at the University of Auckland. It will encompass four insightful presentations:<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><b>Presentation 1</b>: Professor Hyunsoo Kim (Meiji University, Tokyo)<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">• Zainichi Koreans in the 1970s and Residence Right by 1965 Agreement<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">• Abstract: Following 14 years of normalization negotiations between South Korea and Japan, the 'Korea-Japan Treaty' was finalized in 1965. This treaty allowed certain conditions to be met for Zainichi Koreans to attain 'Residence Rights
by Agreement.' The early 1970s witnessed various movements within the Zainichi Korean community to obtain this 'Residence Right by Agreement.' This presentation will scrutinize the impact of the Korea-Japan Treaty on these movements, shedding light on the
dynamics of Zainichi Korean society during this era.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><b>Presentation 2</b>: Professor Hyangsuk Kwon (Sophia University, Tokyo)<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">• Korean Chinese in Japan: From the Beginning to Now<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">• Abstract: The influx of Korean Chinese to Japan originated in the early 1980s, with the sponsorship of the Chinese government for international students studying in Japan. Subsequently, the number of Korean Chinese immigrants grew significantly
in the 1990s, resulting in a history of immigration spanning over three decades. This presentation will provide an encompassing overview of their situation, offering insights into the lives of Korean Chinese residing in Japan within a de facto multicultural
environment.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><b>Presentation 3</b>: Professor Jihye Chung (Tokyo Polytechnic University)
<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">• A Study of Tanie Kitabayashi, an Actress Who Played Korean Women in Post-war Japanese Films and TV Dramas<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">• Abstract: This study investigates the portrayal of Koreans by Japanese actors in motion pictures during post-war Japan. Focusing on Tanie Kitabayashi (1911-2010), an actress known for her adept portrayal of elderly Korean women, the presentation
acknowledges her impact while addressing the stereotypes generated by her Korean-accented performances. By delving into her interactions with directors and acting choices, we gain insights into her perspective and its influence on post-colonial imagery in
post-war Japan.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><b>Presentation 4</b>: Professor Inshil Yang (Iwate University, Morioka)
<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">• Who Confers Nationality Upon "Pachinko"?<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">• Abstract: Min Jin Lee's "Pachinko" has garnered widespread attention as the first literary work by a Korean American author centered around Zainichi Koreans in Japan. Its impact extended even to the United States, receiving recognition
from President Obama on Twitter. This presentation will explore the adaptation of "Pachinko" into an Apple TV series, a subject of differing receptions in South Korea and Japan. The variations in these receptions provide an insightful lens through which we
can observe the changing media landscape and perceptions of Zainichi Koreans in both nations.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Your participation holds great value as we aim to foster intellectually stimulating discussions. We eagerly anticipate your presence.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Warm regards,<o:p></o:p></p>
