'Japanese words in our language are a remnant of Japanese colonial rule.
It is difficult to deny the proposition that the Japanese language is a pollutant and a dreg and must be purified.
Because it is natural.
But this proposition seems so obvious that it leaves no room for further thought, but in fact it is not so.
Here, I don't want to bring up the principle of fairness by citing examples of English borrowing or abuse, such as "English works, so why not Japanese?"
Before criticizing the above proposition by bringing it up in terms of equity with other foreign languages, it is because our complex linguistic reality exists in the ‘Japanese in our language’ itself.
In this book, we will focus on Japanese origins, or “transformed” Japanese, which can be replaced with Korean words, but whose meaning and nuance cannot be properly preserved when done so.
Because there hasn't been enough discussion about this so far.
This issue is also important in terms of the ecosystem and diversity of language.
I believe that we have reached a point where we must approach 'Japanese in Korean' from a new perspective.
