Mindan
Mindan ((朝鮮語:민단)), or the Korean Residents Union in Japan ((朝鮮語:재일본대한민국민단)), is the name of one of two main organizations for Koreans living in Japan, the other being Chongryon. Mindan has ties to South Korea and was established in 1946 in Tokyo, Japan. Currently, among 610,000 Korean residents in Japan who have not adopted Japanese nationality, 65 percent are members of Mindan, and another 25 percent are members of Chongryon.
Mindan members prefer the modern term to be used when discussing Korea. Chongryon members, some of whom are North Korean fellow travellers, prefer the older term . Because ''Chōsen'' was the term used during the Japanese rule of Korea and North Korea does not recognize ''Kankoku'', this causes enmity between the groups.
==History==
Mindan was established in 1946 as the , but with the founding of South Korea in 1948 the name ''Chōsen'' was dropped, and the organization was reincorporated as .〔 The Korean War (1950 – 1953) brought about a sharp division between members of Chongryon and Mindan, which each organization strongly supporting the North or South respectively. Mindan members went to Korea as volunteer soldiers in the conflict in this period.〔
As the term ''kyoryū'', meaning "resident", became a politically sensitive term, the organization adopted its present name in 1994 by simply dropping the term ''kyoryū''. Despite the formal renaming of the organization, it has been consistently known as ''Kankoku Mindan'' or simply ''Mindan'' in Japan.
