Geography[edit]

one dot denotes 100 Japan born Melbourne residents

The Japanese population is located throughout the Melbourne area,[1] with many temporary Japanese residents living in middle-class suburbs.[2]

As of 2007 many high income Japanese live in Melbourne-area middle class suburbs, such as Brighton and Camberwell. Camberwell North had 110 persons born in Japan in 1996 and 116 Japan-born persons in 2001. Camberwell South had 116 Japan-born persons in 1996 and 96 Japan-born persons in 2001.[3] Several Japanese families settled in the area around Caulfield due to the location of The Japanese School of Melbourne (JSM),[4] which had been established in 1986. There were nine temporarily-located Japanese families in Caulfield South in 1987, and the Japanese population increased after that point due to the school. As of 2007 the neighbourhood of Prahran had many young Japanese persons, and the neighbourood of Toorak had many single Japanese corporate employees.[3]
Institutions[edit]

The Japanese Chamber of Commerce and Industry, Melbourne Inc. (JCCiM; メルボルン日本商工会議所 Meruborun Nihon Shōkōkai Gisho), the Japanese Society of Melbourne (JSM; メルボルン日本人会 Meruborun Nihonjinkai), and the Japanese school are the major institutions of Melbourne's Japanese community.[5] In September 1963 the JCCiM was established.[6] In July 1965 the Japanese Society of Melbourne was established.[7] The Japan Club of Victoria (JCV; ヴィクトリア日本クラブ Vikutoria Nihon Kurabu) is the city's largest organization of Japanese migrants.[5] The Japanese government operates the Consulate-General of Japan in Melbourne (在メルボルン日本国総領事館 Zai Meruborun Nippon-koku Sōryōjikan).[8]
Education[edit]

The Japanese School of Melbourne (JSM), a nihonjin gakkō (full-time Japanese school), serves the Japanese temporary expatriate community in Melbourne.[9] In September 1972 a full Saturday only Japanese program opened in the city.[10] At one time Japanese officials asked for permission for the establishment of a Japanese school when the Premier of Victoria had approached them to discuss the possibility of further Japanese investment in Victoria,[11] and the JSM full-time school opened on 13 May 1986.[11] There are temporary Japanese expatriates in Melbourne who prefer to send their children to Australian day schools even though Melbourne has a Japanese day school.[9]

The Melbourne International School of Japanese, a supplementary Japanese school, is held at Oakleigh South Primary School in Oakleigh South.[12] It serves levels kindergarten through senior high school.[13] The JSM was formed out of the previous supplementary school, so a new supplementary program opened to replace it.[9] The MISJ first opened in 1986.[13]

In 1996, 400 children of ages 6-15, the ages for elementary and junior high school, lived in Melbourne. About 75% went to Australian schools and the remainder went to the JSM. At the time some Japan-born children attended Australian schools and were moved to a nihonjin gakkō for their final year in Australia, since they were due to return to Japan.[14]
Recreation[edit]

Tetsuo Mizukami (水上 徹男 Mizukami Tetsuo[15]), the author of The Sojourner Community: Japanese Migration and Residency in Australia, wrote that the chamber of commerce, the JSM, and the Japanese society are "always involved" in major events, such as festivals and athletic competitions, related to the Japanese community, and that the said community "becomes quite visible in Melbourne" when these events take place.[5]

The Japan Festival is held in the City of Whitehorse.[16] Mizukami stated on 26 October 1997 there were over 300 Japanese persons who participated at the Japanese athletic competition in Fawkner Park, making the competition one of the Japanese community's largest activities.[5]

Korean Australians are Australian citizens who trace their Korean ancestry and identify themselves as an immigrant to or a descendant born in Australia.

History[edit]

There is some evidence of the presence of a small number of Koreans in Australia as early as 1920. While it is unclear what prompted their arrival they may have been the children of Australian Protestant missionaries who began work in Korea around 1885. A few also came to Australia between 1921 and 1941 for education.[3]

During World War II (1941-1945), an unknown number of Koreans who had been arrested in Allied countries across the Asia-Pacific Region were transported to Australia and interned alongside Japanese and Formosans for the duration of the war. Most Korean internees carried Japanese names, and were thus difficult to identify.

When the Korean War ended, some Korean women came to Australia as war brides and children as orphans, adopted by Australian families. The relaxation of immigration restrictions in the late 1960s provided the first opportunity for larger numbers of Koreans to enter Australia. In 1969, the first Korean immigrants arrived in Sydney under the Skilled Migration Program. However, there were only 468 Korean born people recorded as living in Australia at the time of the 1971 Census.[3]

In the early 1970s, about 1000 Koreans arrived each year for short-term stays (mostly as students) and around 100 arrived for permanent residence. Some of these new arrivals subsequently sponsored family members for migration. Between 1976 and 1985, around 500 Korea-born immigrants arrived each year resulting in the number of Korea-born living in Australia increasing more than sixfold between the 1976 Census (1460) and the 1986 Census (9290).[3]

From 1986 to 1991, there was a further increase in settler arrivals, with an average of about 1400 each year, many coming under the Skilled and Business migration categories. More than half of the Korea-born in Australia have arrived in the last ten years, including as students.[3]

Historical population[edit]

At the 2016 census, 123,017 persons resident in Australia identified themselves as being of Korean ancestry.[1] 98,776 persons resident in Australia had been born in South Korea. At the 2006 census, 59 persons residing in Australia had been born in North Korea.[4]

According to the 2006 census, only 38% declared holding Australian citizenship,[5] 68% had arrived in Australia in 1990 or later, and 63% reside in New South Wales. Few ethnic groups are as concentrated in one state as Koreans are in New South Wales, where 33% of Australia's population live.[6]

At the 2006 Census, 37,426 (71%) Korean-born Australian residents declared they were Christian, 3,500 (6.6%) Buddhist and 9,562 (18%) had no religious affiliation.[5] Disgruntled former members of Korean Christian churches sometimes join the handful of Korean Buddhist temples in the Sydney area.[7]

Editorial Reviews
Review
Gil Soo Han displays a fine understanding of sociological method, makes impressive use of primary and secondary sources, and delivers the goods!...It certainly makes a most worthy addition to the rather scanty literature we have in this country on ethnic religious groups, and one hopes it might stimulate further work in this area.>>> (John Bodycomb)

This is a well researched analysis of the factors which have resulted in rapid growth in recent years of Korean churches, both in Korea and elsewhere, especially in Australia. This is a much more comprehensive and insightful study than any previous account of these phenomena.>>> (Dr. Alan W. Black)



Han offers an interesting analysis of the importance of supply and demand aspects of church growth and an elucidation of the social dimensions of Korean immigrant churches. (John Bodycomb Contemporary Sociology)
