The aim of this project is to analyze how the newly created festivals have given impact to the Koreans in Japan socioculurally and psychlogically. Koreans in Japan have been socially discriminated without any rational reasons. Today, most of the Koreans in Japan are the 2nd, 3rd or 4th generation. They have attended at schools with the Japanese and have been raised in areas where the Japanese also reside. While most of the young generation identify Japan as thier homeland, they were forced to have negative images on thier Korean cultural heritage and themselves through the persistent discrimination. However, through the creation of their own festivals in Japan, they have gradually reconstructed new ethnic identity as "Koreans in Japan[Zainichi]" which is slightly different from Koreans and Japanese. At the same time, they have gradually restored their own pride and positive self-image. Their festivals are both unconsciouslly and consciouslly utilized as a basis for their new identity and handed down to their children as their own culture. Also, it became clear that there are not only many common features but differences among them, reflecting historic and socioculural conditions in each area.The present researcher is planning to carry out research on how the Koreas'ethnic images have been formed both by the Japanese and the KOreans themselves.

本项目的目的是分析新创建的节日如何在社会文化和心理上对在日朝鲜人产生影响。在日本的朝鲜人在没有任何合理理由的情况下受到社会歧视。如今，在日本的韩国人大多是第二代、第三代或第四代。他们在日本人的学校上学，并在日本人居住的地区长大。虽然大多数年轻一代将日本视为自己的祖国，但由于持续的歧视，他们被迫对自己的韩国文化遗产和自己产生负面形象。但是，他们通过在日本创造自己的节日，逐渐重建了与韩国人和日本人略有不同的“在日朝鲜人”的新民族身份。同时，他们也逐渐恢复了自己的自豪感和积极的自我形象。他们的节日被有意无意地用作他们新身份的基础，并作为他们自己的文化传给他们的孩子。同时，也可以看出，它们之间不仅有许多共同点，而且也有许多不同之处，这反映了各个地区的历史和社会文化状况。本研究者计划对日本人和韩国人如何形成韩国人的民族形象进行研究。
