Joseonjok: Too Different to be Chinese, 'Not Good Enough' to be Korean - a podcast by The Korea File

With a unique cultural and geographical history going back centuries, the ‘Joseonjok’ are considered too different to be fully Chinese in China while simultaneously 'not good enough to fit in’ in South Korea.

In this conversation, writer Eddie Park joins host Andre Goulet to discuss his recent investigative reporting from the Korean Autonomous Prefecture in Yanbian, China.

This interview was recorded on October 25th, 2018.
