Abstract

|
The first peak of the Chinese-Korean ethnic group's migration to the northeast was from the late 19th century to the early 20th century. In the late 19th century, with the brutal politics of the Korean government and the Japanese imperialist invasion of Korea, the northern Korean population crossed the Tu-men River and moved to Yanbian on a large scale. The immigration policy of the Qing Dynasty and the Republic of China assisted to gradually form the Korean society. In particular, taking the opportunity of the merger of Korea and Japan in 1910, many revolutionaries who pursued the independence of countries and national liberation gathered in Yanbian for the construction of overseas independence movement bases. Most of them, as Christian believers and doctors, carried out the patriotic enlightenment movement and anti-Japanese struggle in the Yanbian area and made great contributions to the medical service in Yanbian area.
While introducing the medical facilities and personnel reform in Yanbian, this article analyzes the role and contribution of medical professionals in the society of Koreans through the activities of medical representatives such as Park Suh-yang, Martin, Shin Bok-dung, and Lee Kyong-jae. This article makes an effort to highlight the medical professionals who stuck to their duty as doctors, silently working for the ethnic society even though they were not well-known, because there is no apparent records verifying that they participated in the armed struggle for independence. It is also suggested that the contributions of those who had not yet been identified to the independence struggle should be tracked.
