Fuzan nippō

Fuzan nippō (釜山日報; Korean: 부산일보; RR: Busan Ilbo; MR: Pusan Ilbo) was a Japanese-language newspaper published in Busan, Korea from 1905 to 1945. It previously went by the names Chōsen nippō (朝鮮日報; 조선일보; different from the modern Chosun Ilbo) and Chōsen jiji shinpō (朝鮮時事新報; 조선시사신보). It was one of the most prominent Japanese newspapers in Korea during the Japanese colonial period, alongside the Keijō nippō and Chōsen shinbun. Upon the 1945 liberation of Korea, the newspaper's assets were seized by the United States and repurposed into the modern Busan Ilbo. Digital copies are available, scanned and searchable, on the Korean Newspaper Archive. Many original copies of the newspaper from 1914 to 1944 are now stored in the Busan Simin Municipal Library, although some show signs of fire damage.
