[KS] Population in North Korea 1945

[Balazs Szalontai]

Dear Ruediger,
   
  the most detailed work on the subject is probably the book of Nicholas Eberstadt and Judith Banister, "The Population of North Korea" (1992). As far as I remember, the last Japanese census was held in 1944 or so.
   
  Best,
  Balazs

  

I am looking for data on the population of North Korea around liberation, i.e. in 1945, 
before the migration towards the South started. My estimate would be around 7-8 millions. 
Any hint is highly appreciated.

Best,

Ruediger Frank
