The Origin of Korean People and Their National Consciousness

朝鲜(韩)民族的来源主要有几种说法:西伯利亚的阿尔泰民族、东夷民族、百越民族、北狄民族等。从历史上看,朝鲜(韩)民族是多民族融合而形成的。现代朝鲜(韩)民族具有强烈的民族精神,表现为文化心理一致的共同体意识、敬重祖先的家族意识、对文化传统引以为豪的自觉保护意识、与众不同的独立意识等。

Korean people are believed to be the descendents of the Altaic-speaking tribes from Siberia, the Eastern tribes, the Baiyue people and Northern tribes. This paper studies different theories and argues that the formation of Korean ethnic group is a process of interracial and multi-ethnical fusion. Modern Korean people have strong national spirit, which is presented by the community consciousness with shared cultural mentality, the family consciousness of ancestor worship, the consciousness of tradition protection with national pride and the outstanding consciousness of independence.
