In this study the labor world of Korean diaspora in the modern times was examined by analyzing the dock workers in the port of Moji, Kyushu. Moji Port was one of the destinations for Koreans who came to Japan to find work. The Kitakyushu area, which includes the port of Moji, was a major producer of coal, which was indispensable for the development of modern Japanese industry. And the port of Moji was a hub for the transport of coal produced, and as a result it needed a lot of dock workers. The Korean, who had no advanced skills and knowledge, was highly engaged in dock labor, especially in charge of coal shipping and unloading. Their wages were lower than those of Japanese workers or Korean workers in other industries, and labor conditions were poor. The task ahead is to develop an overview of the study and seek the more general implications on the Korean diaspora studies and migration studies.
