my songs were my type of reactions to the events and news ,
says songwriter yuliy kim, one of russia' s famous bards, who was barred from giving public concerts .
i would write a song about whatever was discussed. i would sing it during the discussion. if there would be someone with a tape recorder they would tape it and take it to another party. songs were spread quickly like interesting stories .
after the first generation of settlers, koryo - saram tended to abandon traditional korean naming practices and follow russian naming patterns, using a russian given name, russian - style patronymic (derived from the father' s name, whether russian or korean), and korean surname. for example, kim jong - il registered as yuri irsenovich kim (юрий ирсенович ким) in soviet records, where the
irsen
in the patronymic consisted of the cyrillization of the given name of his father kim il - sung. [ 25 ] [ 26 ] succeeding generations tended to have both a russian given name and a russian patronymic. [ 27 ] that differs from the pattern typical in the united states, where korean american parents often register their children with a korean given name as their legal middle name (e. g. daniel dae kim, harold hongju koh) .

the film produced a mixed reaction in the creative circles of the generation of the 1960s. many people didn’t like the light - hearted and humorous approach to the cult figures of that time: tarkovsky, tabakov, efremov, solonitsyn. fate brings them together with alexeev, whom nobody knows, he has an argument with the gun inventor kalashnikov himself, and winds up in the hands of the kgb due to his careless behavior on the day of gagarin’s flight. the well - known bards sergey nikitin and yuliy kim expressed very negative views of the film, declaring that it depicts the bards’ movement inaccurately .
kim' s father was a soviet korean, the son of a man who immigrated to the russian far east in 1908; his mother was of russian ethnicity. he claims to be a descendant of 15th - century korean author kim si - seup. he was born in sergievka, tulkibas district, chimkent oblast, kazakh soviet socialist republic (today south kazakhstan province, kazakhstan) and spent his early years there. in 1948, his family moved to the russian far east and sakhalin, where he lived until 1957 before entering an art school in moscow .
aside from his original works, kim has also translated a number of kazakh language works into russian, including abdijamil nurpeisov' s last duty (последний долг) and mukhtar auezov' s path of abay (a re - translation, to replace an older soviet - era version perceived as insufficient) .
bogoraz became well known when, on august 25, 1968, she organized seven people to protest in red square against the soviet union' s invasion of czechoslovakia at the 1968 red square demonstration, together with pavel litvinov, natalya gorbanevskaya, vadim delaunay and other protesters. although, kgb was not successful to determine who of participants kept each banner, all the banners were qualified as
antisoviet
. for this, she was arrested, tried and sentenced to four years of exile in siberia, which she spent in a woodworking plant. l. bogoraz is mentioned in the song ilyich (in russian) by yuliy kim, available at several sites. that song is about reaction of l. brezhnev on the demonstration catches the espiritu of the epoc of brezhnev stagnation, although at the time of writing of the song, the text of the letter of andropov to central committee was not available .
yul brynner was born yuliy borisovich bryner on july 11, 1920, in vladivostok, russia, to father boris bryner, a swiss - mongolian engineer, and mother marousia blagavidova. while brynner is best known for his acting career, and, more specifically, for his baldpate, rich voice and compelling screen presence, he was also a musician in his early years. after his father abandoned the family, brynner & apos; s mother took him and his sister to china, then to paris, where he played guitar and sang gypsy songs in parisian nightclubs .
why even thinking people yielded to
flag - waving
, what will happen if putin’s regime makes concessions and what people in moscow talk about in the kitchen .
but he became a dissident, he participated in the human rights movement from 1965, signed collective letter addressed to the authorities with the demands to observe human rights .
his satirical songs, like the songs by vysotsky, galich, vizbor, okudzhava and other bards, were sung by soviet intellectuals in the close company of friends – around campfire and in moscow kitchens. unsophisticated poetic metaphor often enciphered what people did not dare say aloud .
the idiocy of soviet dogmas seemed to be over and done with. but people with the sense of inner freedom still feel dissidents in russia today. while there is only one official authority in the country – the president of the russian federation – things cannot be different .
on march 1, 2014, he came to the maidan, and three weeks later he signed the statement of the participants of intelligentsia congress
against war, against isolation of russia, against restoration of totalitarianism .
we, representatives of russian intelligentsia, are obliged to warn the authorities against making a historical mistake – the desire to take control over another, recently fraternal country of ukraine with the help of the russian armed forces. the first step – annexation of the crimea to russia – has already been made, first blood has been shed .
a lot of blood has been shed since then – blood of both ukrainians and russians ...
song about the fifth column
performed by the author. video: igor gryzlov / youtube
– i cannot imagine how they can do it so far. not so many people dare tempt their fortune by participating in rallies and demonstrations when they can be sentenced for at least two and a half years for this. however, the authorities have to manoeuvre somehow. the story with navalny brothers is a good example. they did not dare put him to prison, but they did everything to shut his mouth, they put his brother to prison as a hostage. platon lebedev is another hostage; he is not allowed to go abroad in order to keep khodorkovsky on a short leash. the method of hostage - taking used in the ussr is also practised in russia today. .
– in one of your interviews, going back to the soviet times, you remembered the twentieth congress of the communist party and khrushchev' s report
on the cult of personality and its consequences ,
that exposed terrible crimes of the stalin epoch. you said that this event somehow brought people from under hypnosis. in your opinion, what can bring the russians from under hypnosis that make them shout
crimea is ours
?
– the current regime in russia has driven itself in a deadlock from which it is simply necessary to find a way out, otherwise it will collapse together with the country. this need is growing every day. the regime will have to seek a way out and make serious concessions. otherwise, society will come into play .
for example, saddam hussein presented all his defeats as victories – both the story with kuwait and the war with iran. victory monuments were erected in the centre of baghdad commemorating these defeats. but it will not work this way in russia. so the affair is coming to a head .
– today, emigration from russia has reached its peak for the last 15 years. when leaving the country temporarily of for good, people say that it has become stuffy and scary in russia. you are especially susceptible to stuffiness from the soviet times. do you feel it in russia ?
– yes, it is a perfectly fine sense of growing lack of air. it was once said about block that he died for lack of air. many years later, in the early 1980s, before the appointment of gorbachev, okudzhava answered practically the same to the question about how he felt ,
i' m dying .
he lacked air, too .
our unthinking duma puts forward initiatives that restrict artists in different domains. the latest
achievement
is a scandal concerning the film by andrei zvyagintsev
leviathan
, in which people often swear and drink vodka .
– you have a wonderful, funny and, at first glance, simple song
inner voice
, which performed from putin’s second self. what do you think, does the inner voice of real putin whispers only what its master wants to hear, or do you admit that there can be a kind of internal struggle. after all, he was taught something in school, he was read kind fairy tales before bedtime ...
– there is no point in trying to reveal putin' s inner world by his actions because he is a very practical and pragmatic person, he is a good tactician but a poor strategist. he is certainly a very reserved person. playing open games is his state necessity .
maidan made a very strong impression on me. i realized that putin did not like what was going on in ukraine, but i could not assume that he would venture to seize the crimea
– today, a year later, ukraine recalls the tragic events on the maidan. you happened to be there, too, though a little later, in march, when yanukovych had shamefully fled the country, and it seemed that the worst was over. did not you have a premonition that putin will not forgive maidan to ukraine ?
– i was on the maidan on march 1. the day of shooting in institutska street had already passed, but i followed the trail of those events. the atmosphere on the maidan made a very strong impression on me .
i realized, i felt, i knew that putin did not like what was going on in ukraine, but i could not assume that this will be followed by the seizure of the crimea (although there was some movements already, but it did not come to the invasion of
green men
) and then donbass. no one would have thought that putin could venture that .

yul brynner was an actor of stage and screen most famous for portraying king mongkut of siam in the king and i .
born in russia in 1920, actor yul brynner began playing his most famous role, king mongkut of siam in the king and i, on broadway in 1951. after more than three years and 1, 246 performances, he starred in the film version in 1956, winning an academy award for best actor. brynner then returned to the stage for 3, 379 more theatrical performances. he also starred in such classic films as the ten commandments and the magnificent seven. he died in new york city in 1985 .
after a brief career as a trapeze artist in france, brynner moved to the united states in 1941 and began acting with a touring company. he made his broadway debut in lute sang in 1946 .
in 1949, yul brynner made his film debut in port of new york, co - starring with scott brady and richard rober. not long after, he landed his most famous role, playing king mongkut of siam in oscar and hammerstein & apos; s production of the king and i in 1951. actress mary martin had recommended brynner for the role in the broadway musical, and the actor garnered wide critical and commercial acclaim for his performance .
after more than three years and 1, 246 performances, brynner reprised the role of king mongkut for the screen version of the king and i in 1956, winning an academy award for best actor for his performance in the film. the dazzling, academy award - winning success that might have become a trap for a lesser star became the ongoing glory of brynner & apos; s career, from the peak of his stardom to his untimely death. but it was by no means his only role or his only achievement .
following the release of 1956 & apos; s the king and i, brynner returned to the stage for an additional 3, 379 stage performances, the last of which occurred in 1985. along the way, the actor also starred in such classic films as the ten commandments (1956), anastasia (1956), the brothers karamazov (1958) and the magnificent seven (1960) .
in honor of his prominent acting career, brynner received a star on the hollywood walk of fame (at 6162 hollywood boulevard) .
outside of his performing career, brynner worked as a photographer and authored two books, bring forth the children: a journey to the forgotten people of europe and the middle east and the yul brynner cookbook: food fit for the king and you .
brynner & apos; s romantic life included four wives, actress viriginia gilmore, chilean model doris kleiner, jacqueline thion de la chaume and ballerina kathy lee, as well as numerous love affairs with such stars as marlene dietrich, judy garland, joan crawford and ingrid bergman. he had five children: son yul
rock
brynner ii with virginia gilmore, daughter lark with actress frankie tilden, daughter victoria with doris kleiner, and daughters mia and melody, two vietnamese children he adopted with jacqueline thion de la chaume .
yul brynner died of lung cancer on october 10, 1985, in new york city—the same day that film actor / director orson welles passed away. brynner is buried at the st. robert churchyard in la tourraine, france .
a true sophisticate of deliberately mysterious origins, beloved as much by men as by women, yul brynner was at home in a wide variety of languages and social environments. today, the actor remembered for his looks, range of talents and energy on the set, as well as his capacity to draw others into the spell of his charm .

larisa iosifovna bogoraz (full name: larisa iosifovna bogoraz - brukhman (bogoraz was her father' s last name, brukhman her mother' s), russian language: лариса иосифовна богораз - брухман; august 8, 1929 - april 6, 2004) was a dissident in the soviet union .
born into a family of communist party bureaucrats, she graduated as a linguist from kharkov university in ukraine, and in 1950, married her first husband, yuli daniel, a writer. together, they moved to moscow .
her marriage to daniel would ultimately lead to her becoming involved in activism. in 1965, daniel and a friend of his, andrei sinyavsky, were arrested for a number of writings that they had had published overseas under pseudonyms (see sinyavsky - daniel trial). the trial of the two men was the beginning of a crackdown on dissent under general secretary leonid brezhnev. they were both sent to terms in forced labor camps. after their detention, bogoraz wrote to brezhnev in protest, despite knowing that such an act could land her in prison .
daniel was released in 1970, while bogoraz was still in siberia. their marriage did not survive much longer, and they soon divorced. however, soon after her release, bogoraz resumed her resistance of the soviet regime. she signed many public appeals to the authorities. she co - wrote an underground book, memory, which detailed stalin' s terror and was subsequently published overseas. she also contributed to the underground publication chronicle of current events. in 1975, she wrote a letter to yuri andropov, who was the head of the kgb at the time, requesting that he open the organization' s archives .
she later married anatoly marchenko, another prominent dissident. together, they co - wrote a number of appeals. however, he was arrested in 1980, and unlike daniel, did not survive his sentence. bogoraz launched a campaign in 1986 to have all political prisoners freed. the campaign was successful, as the following year, general secretary mikhail gorbachev began releasing them. this came too late for marchenko, who died as a result of a hunger strike shortly before the initial release .
in 1989, bogoraz joined, and subsequently became chairwoman of, the newly re - founded moscow helsinki group. she acted as a bridge between the old guard of dissidents, and the new generation that were arising as the soviet union dissolved .
after the demise of the soviet union, bogoraz continued her activism, visiting prisoners and holding seminars on the defense of human rights. she also became chairwoman of the seminar on human rights, a joint russian - american nongovernmental organization. she resigned from the latter in 1996, but continued to exert influence in human rights circles up until her death .
not long before her death, she issued an open letter condemning both the 1999 nato bombing of yugoslavia and the 2003 iraq war. she died on april 6, 2004, aged 74, after a series of strokes
how soviet kitchens became hotbeds of dissent and culture: the salt after stalin' s death, people in the soviet union could begin to debate politics again without fear of repression. this
thawing
took place in private kitchens, where music and art flourished, too .

a typical russian kitchen inside an apartment built during the early 1960s, when nikita khrushchev led the soviet union — what later became known as khrushchev apartments .
when nikita khrushchev emerged as the leader of the soviet union after stalin' s death in 1953, one of the first things he addressed was the housing shortage and the need for more food. at the time, thousands of people were living in cramped communal apartments, sharing one kitchen and one bathroom with sometimes up to 20 other families .
people wanted to live in their own apartment ,
says sergei khrushchev, the son of nikita khrushchev .
but in stalin' s time you cannot find this. when my father came to power, he proclaimed that there will be mass construction of apartment buildings, and in each apartment will live only one family .
they were called khrushchevkas — five - story buildings made of prefabricated concrete panels .
they were horribly built; you could hear your neighbor ,
says edward shenderovich, an entrepreneur and russian poet. the apartments had small toilets, very low ceilings and very small kitchens .
but
no matter how tiny it was, it was yours ,
says journalist masha karp, who was born in moscow and worked as an editor for the bbc world service from 1991 to 2009 .
this kitchen was the place where people could finally get together and talk at home without fearing the neighbors in the communal flat .
these more private kitchens were emblematic of the completely new era of soviet life under khrushchev .
it was called a thaw, and for a reason ,
says karp .
like in the winter when you have a lot of snow but spots are already green and the new grass was coming ,
says russian writer vladimir voinovich .
in khrushchev times it was a very good time for inspiration. a little more liberal than before .
the exterior of khrushchev - era apartments in kazan, russia. untifler / wikipedia hide caption
the individual kitchens in these tiny apartments, which were approximately 300 to 500 square feet, became hot spots of culture. music was played, poetry was recited, underground tapes were exchanged, forbidden art and literature circulated, politics was debated and deep friendships were forged .
one of the reasons why kitchen culture developed in russia is because there were no places to meet ,
says shenderovich .
you couldn' t have political discussions in public, at your workplace. you couldn' t go to cafes — they were state - owned. the kitchen became the place where russian culture kept living, untouched by the regime .
in a country with little or no place to gather for the free expression of ideas and no place to talk politics without fear of repression, these new kitchens made it possible for friends to gather privately in one place .
these
dissident kitchens
took the place of uncensored lecture halls, unofficial art exhibitions, clubs, bars and dating services .
the kitchen was for intimate circle of your close friends ,
says alexander genis, russian writer and radio journalist .
when you came to the kitchen, you put on the table some vodka and something from your balcony — not refrigerator, but balcony, like pickled mushrooms. something pickled. sour is the taste of russia .
furious discussions took place over pickled cabbage, boiled potatoes, sardines, sprats and herring .
kitchens became debating societies ,
remembers gregory (grisha) freidin, professor of slavic languages and literature at stanford university .
even to this day, political windbaggery is referred to as' kitchen table talk.'
even in the kitchen, the kgb was an ever - present threat. people were wary of bugs and hidden microphones. phones were unplugged or covered with pillows. water was turned on so no one could hear .
some of us had been followed ,
says freidin .
sometimes there would be kgb agents stationed outside the apartments and in the stairwells. during those times we expected to be arrested any night .
as the night wore on, kitchen conversations moved from politics to literature. much literature was forbidden and could not be published or read openly in soviet society. kitchens became the place where people read and exchanged samizdat, or self - published books and documents .

a samizdat collection of poems and song lyrics by vladimir vysotsky, published shortly after the famous soviet bard' s death in 1980 .
people would type hundreds of pages on a typewriter, using carbon paper to create four or five copies, which were passed from one person to the next — political writings, fiction, poetry, philosophy .
samizdat is, i think, the precursor of internet ,
says genis .
you put everything on it, like facebook. and it wasn' t easy to get typewriters because all typewriters must be registered by the kgb. that' s how people got caught and sentenced to jail .
the kitchen sisters, davia nelson and nikki silva, are peabody award - winning independent producers who create radio and multimedia stories for npr and public broadcast. their hidden kitchens series travels the world, chronicling little - known kitchen rituals and traditions that explore how communities come together through food — from modern - day sicily to medieval england, the australian outback to the desert oasis of california .
samizdat was the most important part of our literature life ,
says genis .
and literature was the most important part of our life, period. literature for us was like movies for americans or music for young people .
in 1973, masha karp' s friend got hold of a typewritten copy of boris pasternak' s dr. zhivago .
she told me,' i' m reading it at night. i can' t let it out of my hands. but you can come to my kitchen and read it here.' so i read it in four afternoons .
genis' family read gulag archipelago, by aleksandr solzhenitsyn, in the kitchen .
it' s a huge book, three volumes, and all our family sat at the kitchen. and we were afraid of our neighbor, but she was sleeping. and my father, my mother, my brother, me and my grandma — who was very old and had very little education — all sit at the table and read page, give page, the whole night. maybe it was the best night of my life .
what happened with samizdat books happened with music, too. magnitizdat are recordings made on reel - to - reel tape recorders. tape recorders were expensive but permitted in the soviet union for home recordings of bards, poets, folksingers and songwriters, made and passed from friend to friend. people had hundreds of tapes they shared through the kitchens .
the most famous bard was vladimir vysotsky, who was like bob dylan of russia ,
says genis .
that' s what you can listen to in kitchen .

before the availability of the tape recorder and during the 1950s, when vinyl was scarce, ingenious russians began recording banned bootlegged jazz, boogie woogie and rock' n' roll on exposed x - ray film salvaged from hospital waste bins and archives .
usually it was the western music they wanted to copy ,
says sergei khrushchev .
before the tape recorders they used the x - ray film of bones and recorded music on the bones, bone music .
they would cut the x - ray into a crude circle with manicure scissors and use a cigarette to burn a hole ,
says author anya von bremzen .
you' d have elvis on the lungs, duke ellington on aunt masha' s brain scan — forbidden western music captured on the interiors of soviet citizens .
most kitchens had a radio that reached beyond the borders and censorship of the soviet union. people would crowd around the kitchen listening to broadcasts from the bbc, voice of america and radio liberte .
it was part of our life in the kitchen ,
says vladimir voinovich, author of the life and extraordinary adventures of private ivan chonkin .

delaunay was born to a russian - french family of soviet intelligentsia. he was the son of nikolai borisovich delone, a soviet physicist. his grandfather, boris delaunay, was a prominent soviet mathematician and creator of the delaunay triangulation. among his ancestors was marquis bernard - rené de launay, the last governor of the bastille, murdered by the attackers on that castle .
delaunay studied at moscow matshkola (
mathematical school
) no. 2, one of the best in the country at that time, then at the department of philology at the moscow pedagogical institute. as a student, he also worked as a freelance author for the literaturnaya gazeta. delaunay started to write poetry at the age of 13. his poetry was distributed by samizdat and some of it was published abroad .
on january 22, 1967, delaunay took part in a demonstration on pushkin square protesting the arrest of writers alexander ginzburg and yuri galanskov (leading to the trial of the four) as well as articles 70 and 190 of the soviet penal code —
anti - soviet agitation
and
libel against the soviet government
. he was arrested and given a one - year suspended sentence (incidentally in accordance with article 190 of the penal code). his sentence was much lighter than that of another organizer of the same meeting, vladimir bukovsky, who got three years in a labor camp .
delaunay' s sentence required him to move away from moscow, so he went to novosibirsk state university to a friend and pupil of his grandfather, aleksandr aleksandrov. in novosibirsk, he continued his philology studies and wrote poetry. at that time, his first official foreign publications appeared in the paris magazine grani n66. delaunay was an organizer of a concert by the bard alexander galich, who was semi - legal at that time .
in the beginning of 1968, after the court hearing for galanskov and ginzburg, delaunay wrote an open letter to literaturnaya gazeta in which he praised their bravery. the letter was published in the new york city newspaper novoe russkoe slovo (the new russian word) .
in june 1968, delaunay returned to moscow. on august 25, 1968, he and seven other dissidents organized the now - famous demonstration in support of the prague spring in red square near the moscow kremlin. delaunay and pavel litvinov held the famous banner with the words
за вашу и нашу свободу
(
for your freedom and ours
) .
seven people were arrested, and in court, delaunay stated that the five minutes of freedom on the square were worth the awaiting years in prison. the sentence by the court was prepared in advance, just as for other defendants .
in june 1971, delaunay finished serving his sentence and returned to moscow. in 1973, his wife irina belogorodskaya was arrested for her involvement with an underground journal, chronicle of current events. in 1975, she was freed, and they both emigrated to france. in 1979, delaunay published his story portraits in a barbed frame in the magazine echo .
on 13 june 1983, delaunay died of a heart attack in paris at the age of 35. in 1984, his book of poetry verses: 1963 - 1983 was published. in that same year, he was posthumously awarded the vladimir dal prize. his poetry has been published in russia since 1989 .

koryo - saram (russian: корё сарам; koryo - mar: 고려사람), the name ethnic koreans in the post - soviet states use to refer to themselves. approximately 500, 000 ethnic koreans reside in the former ussr, primarily in the newly independent states of central asia. large korean communities in southern russia (around volgograd), the caucasus, and southern ukraine also exist. those communities traces their roots to koreans who lived in the russian far east during the late nineteenth century .
a separate ethnic korean community lives on the island of sakhalin, typically known as sakhalin koreans. some may identify as koryo - saram, but many do not. unlike the communities on the russian mainland, which consist mostly of immigrants from the late 1800s and early 1900s, the ancestors of the sakhalin koreans came as immigrants from kyongsang and jeolla provinces in the late 1930s and early 1940s, forced into service by the japanese government to work in coal mines in sakhalin (then known as karafuto prefecture to fill labor shortages caused by world war ii. [ 3 ]
koryo - saram in russia constitute one of the largest ethnic korean communities in the korean diaspora. the majority immigrated from korea before the division of korea into north and south, and before the japanese annexation of korea. koryo - saram maintained a commitment to see a korea independent of japanese rule between 1910 to 1945, forming guerrilla army forces engaging the japanese army. after the division of korea into communist north and democratic south in 1948, and after the korean war, most koryo - saram have decided to remain in russia as their new home. maintaining korean culture and language has proven a challenge for the koryo - saram .
the name
koryo - saram
appears to originate from the word
korea
rather than from the goryeo dynasty. prior to the collapse of the soviet union, koreans in russia went by the name soviet korean. russians often lump koryo - saram under the general label koreitsy (russian: корейцы); that usage makes no distinctions between ethnic koreans of the local nationality and the korean nationals (citizens of south and north koreas) .
in standard korean, the term
koryo - saram
typically refers to historical figures from the goryeo dynasty; [ 4 ] to avoid ambiguity, korean speakers use a word goryeoin (korean: 고려인; hanja: 高麗人, meaning the same as
koryo - saram
) to refer to ethnic koreans in the post - soviet states. [ 3 ] the sino - korean morpheme
- in
( 인) is not productive in koryo - mar, the dialect spoken by koryo - saram. as a result, only a few (mainly those who have studied standard korean) refer to themselves as goryeoin. instead, koryo - saram has become the preferred term. [ 5 ]
the joseon dynasty of korea declined during the nineteenth century. a small population of wealthy elite owned the farmlands in the country, poor peasants finding difficulty to survive. koreans leaving the country during that time moved toward russia, as the qing dynasty sealed border with korea. many peasants, considering siberia a land with a better standard of living, migrated there. as early as 1863, migration had already begun, 13 households recorded near novukorut bay. those numbers rose dramatically. by 1869, korean composed 20 percent of the population of the maritime province. [ 6 ] prior to the completion of the trans - siberian railway, koreans outnumbered russians in the russian far east, and the local governors encouraged them to naturalize. [ 7 ] the 1897 russian empire census found 26, 005 korean speakers (16, 225 men and 9, 780 women) in the whole of russia, while a 1902 survey showed 312, 541 koreans living in the russian far east alone. [ 7 ] [ 8 ] korean neighborhoods could be found in various cities and korean farms were all over the countryside. [ 3 ]
in the early 1900s, both russia and korea came into conflict with japan. following the end of the russo - japanese war in 1905, russia enacted an anti - korean law at the behest of japan, under which russia confiscated the land of korean farmers and laid off korean laborers. [ 9 ] at the same time, russia continued to serve as sanctuary for the korean independence movement. korean nationalists and communists escaped to siberia, the russian far east, and manchuria. with the october revolution and the rise of communism in east asia, siberia became home to soviet koreans who organized armies like the righteous army to oppose japanese forces. [ 3 ] in 1919, korean leaders who gathered in vladivostok' s sinhanchon (literally ,
new korean village
) neighborhood supported the march first movement for korean independence. that neighborhood became a center for [ nationalism | nationalist ] ] activities, including arms supply; the japanese attacked it on april 4, 1920, leaving hundreds dead. [ 10 ]
between 1937 and 1939, stalin deported over 172, 000 koreans to kazakhstan and uzbekistan, on the official premise that the koreans might act as spies for japan. russia purged and executed many community leaders, a decade and a half passing before russia permitted koryo - saram to travel outside of central asia. up until the era of glasnost, russia prohibited koryo - saram from speaking openly of the deportations. [ 3 ] the deportees cooperated to build irrigation works and start rice farms; within three years, they had recovered their original standard of living. [ 11 ] the events of that period led to the formation of a cohesive identity among the korean deportees. [ 11 ] as russians had prohibited the korean language for decades, subsequent generations lost the use of the korean language. the deportations had a profound effect on koryo - saram' s attitudes towards korean culture. koryo - saram became highly assimilationist, achieved high education levels and one of the best command of russian among the minority nationalities .
scholars estimated that as of 2002, roughly 470, 000 koryo - saram lived in the commonwealth of independent states, including 198, 000 in uzbekistan, 125, 000 in russia, 105, 000 in kazakhstan, 19, 000 in kyrgyzstan, 9000 in ukraine, 6000 in tajikistan, 3000 in turkmenistan, and 5000 in other constituent republics. [ 1 ]
the 2002 census gave a population of 148, 556 koreans in russia, including 75, 835 male and 72, 721 female. [ 12 ] about one - fourth reside in siberia and the russian far east; that korean population traces their roots back to a number of places. aside from approximately 33, 000 cis nationals (most of whom trace their roots to migrants of the 1937 deportation), between 4, 000 and 12, 000 north korean migrant labourers live in the region. smaller numbers of south koreans and ethnic koreans from china have also immigrated to the region to settle, invest, and / or engage in cross - border trade.
