He spelled his name "Kho, Songmoo"  (not Koh) -- otherwise you may not find
it in a library catalogue.
Also, the second standard work (in English) is the one edited by Suh Dae-Sook:
Suh, Dae-Sook, ed. _Koreans in the Soviet Union_. Papers of the Center for
Korean Studies 12. Honolulu: Center for Korean Studies and the Soviet Union
in the Pacific-Asian Region Program of the University of Hawaii, 1987.

Also, Ross King has done quite a number of very fascinating studies on
different aspects of language and literature of Soviet Koreans. But the two
books mentioned above are a very good starting point. If one likes to get a
quick overview, there is German Kim's article in the _Korea Journal_:
Kim, German. "The History, Culture and Language of the Koryô Saram." _Korea
Journal_ 33, no. 1 (Spring 1993): 47-68
