中國朝鮮族
North Koreans refer to themselves as "Joseon-in" (, Hanja: 朝鮮人) or "Joseon-saram" (), both of which literally mean "Korean [Joseon] people". The term is derived from the Joseon dynasty, a Korean kingdom founded by Yi Seonggye that lasted for approximately five centuries from 1392 to 1910. Using similar words, Koreans in China refer to themselves as Chaoxianzu () in Chinese or Joseonjok, Joseonsaram () in Korean, which are cognates that literally mean "Joseon ethnic group". Koreans in Japan refer to themselves as Zainichi Chousenjin, Chousenjin () in Japanese or Jaeil Joseonin, Joseonsaram, Joseonin () in Korean.
