AB - Recently, population of return migration to Korea, particularly Korean-Chinese youths aged between 9 and 24, are rapidly growing due to the policy changes of the Korean government. According to the statistics of 2015, population of the youths who have backgrounds of China reached 81,951 which was constituted over 40 percents of foreign youths. Although the number is growing more significantly from the last year, it is difficult to see proper institutions and legal aids for them either by the official schooling system or by societal support institutions such as NGOs. However, they have rights to receive a proper education not only as migrants from the perspectives of human security, but also as the descendants of the overseas Koreans for whom the Korean government has a preferential treatment policy. Reality is, however, very different; most the youths are outside the schooling system. This can be negative effects to the integration policy of the Korean government. Or, this may develop to the securitization of immigration issues in the future. Therefore, it is important to prepare precautionary measures for the Korean-Chinese youth returnees. As far as the number of the Korea-born youths are dwindling, rapidly growing Korean-Chinese youth returnees are important for the future of Korea.
