The focus of this study is multicultural families (mixed marriage couples and their family members) living in X city, Y city, and the outskirts area of these two cities. This area is located in a northern edge in the Tokyo metropolitan area, and show population increase in late years as bedroom towns of Tokyo. The purpose of this study is to clarify what kind of lifestyle do multicultural families in this area form, what kind of networks do they reproduce, and what meaning do they give their local network. Objects of this study are families with newcomer Korean wives and Japanese husbands. Data are collected through intensive interview and participant observation to key informants.. Using the data, life history of the Korean women, and their adaptation and dissatisfaction to family life and community life are analyzed. As a result, we found both commonality and diversity on key informants' life histories. The commonality are found in (1)hometown area, (2)mother as"a full-time homemaker", (3)release from support responsibility for perents, (4)relationship between working experience in Korea and interest in Japan, (5)educational background, and (6)family form(non-livinig together with parents of her spouse.) In addition, we typified them depending on (1)their Japanese image and contact experiences with Japanese, and(2)their purpose of coming to Japan. This typology show correlation to their stance, or commitment to Japanese society, which has been mentioned as"difficulty in life".

本研究的重点是居住在X市、Y市以及这两个城市郊区的多元文化家庭（异族婚姻夫妇及其家庭成员）。该地区位于东京都的北部边缘，近年来作为东京的卧室城镇呈现出人口增长的趋势。本研究的目的是阐明该地区的多元文化家庭形成了什么样的生活方式，他们再现了什么样的网络，以及他们赋予当地网络什么意义。本研究的对象是新移民韩国妻子和日本丈夫的家庭。通过对关键知情人的深入访谈和参与观察来收集数据。利用这些数据，分析韩国妇女的生活史，以及她们对家庭生活和社区生活的适应和不满。结果，我们发现了关键知情人生活史的共性和多样性。共同点包括（1）家乡地区、（2）母亲为“全职家庭主妇”、（3）免除对父母的赡养责任、（4）在韩国的工作经历和对日本的兴趣之间的关系、（5）教育背景和（6）家庭形式（与配偶的父母不住在一起）。此外，我们还根据（1）他们的日本形象和与日本人的接触经历以及（2）他们来日本的目的来对他们进行典型化。这种类型与他们的立场或对日本社会的承诺相关，这被称为“生活困难”。
