Anti-Korean sentiment in Japan

Anti-Korean sentiment in Japan refers to opposition, hostility, hatred, distrust, fear, and other negative attitudes towards Korean people or culture in Japan. Relations between Japan and Korea date back nearly two millennia and have included cultural exchange, trade, and periods of conflict, with wars and political disputes described as contributing to later negative sentiment. Much of the current anti-Korean sentiment stems from Japanese conservative politicians and far-right groups.
