This book is my twelfth publication and the most gratifying research project I have been involved with over the last thirty years. Several years ago, Korean American students at UC Riverside found a map published by the Sanborn Insurance Company of New York in 1908. The map of downtown Riverside near Pachappa Ave, included a caption Korean settlement. I had never heard of the existence of the Korean community in Riverside during the early twentieth century. It was widely known that Korean immigrants settled in Honolulu, Hawaii; San Francisco; or Los Angeles during the early twentieth century, but not in Riverside, California.
My journey began in 2016 and it was like trying to find a needle in a haystack. At the time, very little literature, writing, or research material on the Riverside Korean community was available. Sunju Lee wrote an article on Pachappa Camp, the Korean settlement in Riverside, but very few pieces of evidence were provided to support his claim. As I searched for any materials or information on the early Korean community in Riverside, I was delighted to find new information here and there. I felt inspiration and joy as I began to piece together the existence of the early Korean community in Riverside. In particular, the Korean language newspapers Sinhan Minbo and Gongnip Sinbo turned out to be jackpot sources as they provided rich information on the Korean community in Riverside during the early twentieth century.
Jia Yoon and Hyerin Joo, Korean literature Ph.D. students at Korea University, found and translated Sinhan Minbo and Gongnip Sinbo newspaper articles into modern Korean language. Without their translation of old Korean language to modern Korean language, I would not have been able to carry out and complete this research project without their help. They were god-sent angels who came to the Young Oak Kim (YOK) Center for Korean American Studies at UC Riverside as graduate student interns in 2018. I am greatly indebted to Jia Yoon and Hyerin Joo for their help on this research project.
Special appreciation is extended to supporters of the YOK Center: Dr. Mike Hong and late Lorrie Hong, Steve Ro, Yeung J. Kim, Jay Kim, Han Yeul Cha, Jang Young Jung Johnney Park, John Son, Peter Yoon, Jong Woon Lee, and Kae Hong Ko. They not only supported the YOK Center financially but also provided strong support and encouragement for this research project.
Acknowledgement is also warmly given to Milagros Pea and Sang Hee Lee, a former dean and assistant dean of the College of Humanities, Arts, and Social Sciences, UC Riverside, respectively, for their generous support of the Young Oak Kim Center. My research assistant, Hannah Brown, found many invaluable materials on the early Korean immigrant communities in Riverside and laid the foundation for this research project.
In particular, I would like to express my special appreciation and gratitude to Carol Park, who spent hours correcting early drafts and providing editorial suggestions to improve this manuscript.
