Joining in this immigration flow were diaspora Koreans, whose “return” was largely influenced by the nation’s shifting geopolitical relationships, economic prosperity, and global visibility. In Homing: An Affective Topography of Ethnic Korean Return Migration, Ji-Yeon O. Jo provides a framework for understanding legacy migration through the concept of transborder belongings; this expresses the topography of social, legal, lingual, and familial borders across transborder spaces.

Authors: Park, Young-a Abstract: In the past, the notion of a common Korean ethnicity shaped how North Korean migrants in South Korea understood themselves, and in turn were viewed and assisted by the South Korean government and its resettlement regime. However, new frameworks of belonging have emerged that focus on molding the North Korean migrant population into either “multicultural” (tamunhwa) or "global” (kullobol) citizens of South Korea. These are two competing, locally inflected idioms of “flexible citizenship” (à la Aihwa Ong) that are meant to capture North Korean migrants’ border crossing experiences and transnational aspirations. Based on 15 months of ethnographic fieldwork, conducted between 2009 and 2017, this article examines the development of these new narratives of belonging.

Economic collapse, famine, and the so-called Arduous March have had unintended consequences for North Koreans, forcing them to become more active economic agents. Many North Korean women started working in the black market (jangmadang), and became extremely mobile, seeking economic opportunities in new cities, new regions, and even across national borders. As a result, the mobility of North Korean women and their economic activities in the market have had a significant influence in contemporary North Korean families.
