This study analyzed the role played by Jeju residents in Japan on the development of the citrus industry in Jeju in the 1960s and 1970s, including not only "things" and "money" but also "people." As a result of the examination, it was found that in addition to the generally known donation of citrus seedlings, Jeju residents in Japan played an active role as mediators and coordinators between Jeju and Japan in the inflow of related technology and knowledge. There are various ways in which the diaspora is involved in the development of their home country(hometown), but when intermingling with "people" as examined in this research, the role played by the diaspora cannot help but become more positive. This research is an attempt to gain a more comprehensive understanding of how diasporas are involved in the development of their home countries(hometowns), and it is possible to conduct comparative research with other cases.
