Kim Tal-su
Kim Tal-su ( Korean 金 達 寿 , Japanese-Korean Kimu Darusu / Tarusu or Japanese Kin Tatsuju ; born November 27, 1919 in Keishō-nandō, Chōsen Province , Japanese Empire (today: Gyeongsangnam-do , South Korea ) ; † May 24, 1997 ) was a Japanese writer of Korean origin.
Live and act
Kim came to Japan with his mother in 1929/30 at the age of ten. He was forced to pay for his school attendance and the like. a. to work as a food seller and garbage collector. After attending Nihon University , he was a reporter for the Kanagawa Shimbun (神奈川 新聞) newspaper until the outbreak of World War II .
After the war, Kim published a Japanese-language magazine about Korea, the "Minshu Chōsen" (民主 朝鮮). He then turned to fiction and published his first novel, "Gendai Nada" (現代 灘) in 1954, based on his experience as a Korean reporter during the war.
Kim's books capture, often with humor and casualness, the difficulties of the Koreans who suffered under Japanese rule in their own country and also the difficulties of the Koreans who were left without rights in Japan after the war. Among the other works is “Paku Taru no Saiban” (朴 達 の 裁判) “Process of the Park Valley” from 1959.
In later years, Kim studied the results of archaeological research in Japan, which revealed many objects of Korean origin. He published the results from 1970 to 1984 in a series "Nihon non naka no Chōsen bunka" (日本 の 中 の 朝鮮 文化) - "Korean culture in the middle of Japan".
