Australia is home to a sizeable Korean immigrant population, with more than 70,000 Koreans concentrated in Sydney. This research report provides results of a survey study, based on interviews with 65 Korean immigrant business owners, on Korean businesses in the restaurant industry. In addition, the report provides fundamental information on Koreans in Australia, including immigration patterns, reasons for immigration, and Korean enclaves, as well as suggesting policy recommendations for the future of the Korean community in Sydney. The authors of the report, Professors Jock Collins and Joon Shin, were kind enough to allow the Research Center to post this report on Korean American Data Bank in its efforts to share information on the Korean population around the world.
