| Summary: | The Korean population settled overseas is composed of almost 7 millions; 50% of this group is based in Asia (mostly in China and Japan). The Korean migration waves in Asia evolve and become more diverse as shown by their late settlement in the Philippines. The main objective of this study is to understand the connections established in a multiscalar perspective to allow the establishment of 88 000 Koreans permanently (2013) and the million of Korean tourists that reached the Philippines in 2012. The background of this phenomenon is, on the first hand regional with the integration of South-Korea in the ASEAN mobility perimeter, and on the other hand national as it takes into account the specificity of the Philippines that provide training in language education while allowing the establishment of a Korean cultural network through enterprises and social associations which are necessary to the mobility between the two countries. |
