Russians in Korea

Okay, so imagine you have a group of people who come from a place called Russia. These people have traveled really far from their homes and now they're in a country called Korea. They look different from the Korean people because they have different customs and speak a different language.

Some Russian people went to Korea a long time ago, when Korea was controlled by another country called Japan. They went there to work and live, but they still kept their Russian identity. Some of these Russian people even married Korean people and had children who were both Russian and Korean.

Later on, when Korea became its own country again, some other Russian people came to Korea to study or to work. They wanted to learn about Korean culture and make friends with Korean people.

So, there are different groups of Russian people in Korea, some who have been there for a long time and some who are just visiting or studying. They might have different reasons for being there, but they all have something in common - they bring a little bit of their own culture to share with the Korean people they meet.
