In the 1950s, ‘stow-away’ by Koreans was began to be recognized as a migration phenomenon that could infiltrate communism into Japanese society. This study examined how Koreans' ‘stow-away’ had intersected with the Cold War focusing on the petitions for the release of Korean ‘stowaways.’ As a result of the analysis, it was found that for the release of the ‘stowaways,’ officials from an anti-communist ethnic organization(Mindan) played roles as the petitioners, in addition to family and relatives. And they ‘proved’ that the ‘stowaways’ were not persons with a dangerous ‘thought.’ However, this ‘prove’ was not always valid, and it went through the process of ‘interpretation’ by GHQ/SCAP based on police investigations, etc. The history of the ‘stowaways’ as well as the petitioners was ‘interpreted’ in terms of relevance to communism, which was not without its arbitrary aspects, but ultimately had a great influence on whether or not the ‘stowaways’ were released.
