Abolition of family register system and class system
The family register system was introduced during the Japanese colonial period.During the Joseon Dynasty of the Yi Dynasty, even lowly people who did not have a surname and were not recognized as human beings were given surnames and registered as they did not need to write their status. As a result, the class system will be abolished. The details listed in the family register on the Korean Peninsula are as follows.

System considering Korean customs
7. honkan is a name representing a clan unique to the Korean Peninsula, and this name was maintained. Seven items are missing from Japan's family register. The principle of non-marriage with the same surname was maintained as a system unique to the Korean Peninsula. The son-in-law adoption system was introduced following Japan. Changes were made to allow female heads of household registration. The reason behind the name change is that the Korean Peninsula believed in Confucianism, so the husband and wife had different surnames. This was an attempt to create a Japanese-style surname to represent the family, and it was application system. This is explained in the image posted. Rather than depriving people of their Korean names, they gave surnames to people who didn't have them and abolished the need to list people's identities. And it's not compulsory in the first place.
Diffusion of school education system
By abolishing the class system, children were able to attend school without distinction of status. The purpose of introducing the school education system was to create an educational environment for all children. The female enrollment rate in primary education increased from 6.3% in 1911 to 33.1% in 1941.
Remarks by Seisuke Okuno, a then-Home Affairs bureaucrat
When Hiromu Nonaka criticized Aso's remark at the Liberal Democratic Party's general meeting (remarks that the name change was requested by Koreans), Seisuke Okuno, who was present at the meeting, said, ``Nonaka-kun, you may not know this because you are young, but Aso...'' What you say is 100% correct.It was difficult to do business if we kept our Korean name.There were many complaints like that, so we decided to change our name to Mr. So.The stamp was given by a Home Affairs bureaucrat. It's me''.
Korean tribe spread in Manchuria
Many ethnic Koreans still live in the Manchurian region of the time, but northern Korea was unsuitable for agriculture and was subject to repeated floods and droughts. As Japan's influence expanded, many Koreans moved to Manchuria in search of farmland. They wanted a Japanese name because they would be bullied by the Manchurians if they said they were Korean. If you are Japanese, you can have a big face.
Manchukuo, which celebrated the harmony of the five tribes
Manchukuo is a Japanese puppet state whose emperor is Aixinjuoro Puyi, the last emperor of the Qing dynasty. Many Japanese people also immigrated at that time. The founding idea of Manchukuo was harmony of the five tribes of the Japanese, Han Chinese, Koreans, Manchurians, and Mongolians. In other words, these five tribes lived together in this area.
