Talk:Koreans in Vietnam

message: The following sentence is not precise:
"In September 2006, South Korean conglomerate Kumho Engineering and Construction broke ground at Asiana Plaza, a 32-story complex which, when completed, is expected to be Vietnam's largest building at least until 2010"
i really doubt you know of all the building projects in vietnam. are you really sure that from the korean-built house is finished, until the skyscraper in hanoi is finished in 2010, there will not be built any other houses that are higher than the korean-built one? i don't think so. if you are, list the source. the statement is therefore an assumption, and an encyclopedia should not list such assumptions as facts. i suggest you revert the article to the way it was originally after the info about the skyscraper in hanoi was added.

replies: text: Be bold. I went ahead and removed it myself since on second thought, I don't really think information about construction projects has anything to do with understanding about Koreans in Vietnam. Cheers, cab 00:55, 9 May 2007 (UTC)
thread_title:  Asiana Plaza 

message: The following deserves mentioning in the main article. I am unable to provide the source of refererence, as I've lost contact to the friend who gave the text to me a few years back. Apparently, it was translated from Vietnamese, published in a weekly journal. 
:The Korean historian Chung Dong Yu in 1805 wrote of an event occurring 118 years earlier. In 1687, year of the cat, a Korean ship manned by a 24-man crew somehow stranded in a far-away water after 35 days floating on the Pacific Ocean in bad weather. Surrounded by boats full of soldiers and communicating in writing (using Chinese characters) they were told they had landed in the waters of Dai Viet, Hoi An district of Minh Duc prefecture. The 21 Korean survivors were given food, shelter and allowed to move freely during their stay in the far-away land. They were even introduced to the district chancellor, who offered for them to stay and whose beautiful young wife impressed them with her knowledge of Chinese writing. In 1688, year of the dragon, they safely returned to Korea to tell of a friendly and peaceful Dai Viet (unaware of the truce between north and south being in force at the time then).

thread_title: More Korean Material

message: #The hankyoreh(hani.co.kr) references itself are not qualified references. It is not admit by Korea and Vietnam both. It is a POV and lacking evidence. The original author of Hankyoreh newspaper was a 구수정(Goo soo-jung), this 'young female student' outside writer wrote her own basless, exaggerated news by her assumption. Even her was(and is) not a official writer of hankyoreh newspaper, it was a 'outside contributed' article. Generally, newpaper have no responsible for 'outside contributed' article. and newspaper is not guarantee 'external essay' is true.
#the hankyoreh essay itself have no evidence. There is no offical group and academic source confirmed this essay is 'true'. and The group of Vietnam soldiers officially denied Hankyoreh news, and says this news was "distorted and baseless". The essay contains her own original research.
#The controversial and contested, non-academic sources are not regard as reliable sources. it should not be presented as simple statements of fact.
#According to Wikipedia:Reliable sources, "If a topic has no reliable sources, Wikipedia should not have an article on it." 660gd4qo (talk) 15:08, 2 February 2010 (UTC)
thread_title:  hankyoreh Koo's source 

message: Like most ethnic group, Korean doesn't have a plural in English dictionary. In Merriam Webster, Korean, is defined as native of Korea. There's no entry of Koreans. Likewise, there's no plural of Indian(s), Chinese (Chineses) Japanese(Japaneses) Vietnamese(s) etc. Therefore, to move Koreans in Vietnam to Korean in Vietnam, which is more grammatically safe and ethnically acceptable, shouldn't cost much or hurt anybody's feeling, I hope.
