The Effects of Political Ideology on Foreigner Sentiment: A Comparison of Young Adults and the Youth in South Korea

Q: What is attitude toward foreigners as defined in this paper?

It refers to the feelings of support or opposition that an individual holds toward groups of foreigners residing in Korea. This includes psychological responses measured against various immigrant groups, such as foreign spouses, foreign workers, Joseon-j족 (조선족), and North Korean defectors.

Q: How does the political ideology of Korean adolescents affect their attitudes toward foreigners?

The research findings indicate that the political ideology of adolescents has a significant effect only on attitudes toward Joseon-j족, while it does not exert a substantial influence on other groups. This suggests that, unlike adults, the attitudes of adolescents respond more strongly to pragmatic and humanitarian factors than to political inclinations.

Abstract· Keywords

Extant studies have shown the significance of political ideology on attitudes towards foreigners, but most have focused primarily on the adult population. This study investigates the effects of ideology on foreigner sentiment among South Korean youth, posing the following questions: What are some of the main predictors that influence youth support for various immigrant groups living in Korea? More specifically, do the political ideologies of Korean adolescents influence their attitudes towards foreigners, similarly to that of the adult population? Using an original survey conducted in January 2024, this study contends that political ideology, a significant predictor for adults, is less influential among adolescents. Instead, for Korean youth, practical and humanistic factors such as the contributions made by foreigners and state support for minorities are more critical in influencing their support. This suggests that sentiment towards foreigners among the youth fundamentally derive from different factors than that of adults. The results suggest that these determinants should be explored further, since the youth will play a vital role in integrating immigrant groups and in shaping the country’s future policies and norms.
