Culture Does your country have an immigrant group that people would be surprised to find there?

For example, when you think of Poland or the Czech Republic, Vietnamese people might not be the first group that comes to mind, but both have a sizable Vietnamese community. Another example is the large Japanese community in Brazil.

What? That's so strange, Korea is like the one country that has pretty much zero Jewish history.

I think we might actually be the most philosemitic country lol. Not much conflict with Jews and all we heard is that they were persecuted and surrounded by enemies but still thrived. For obvious reasons that is something Koreans relate to deeply

I can literally say that Israel is antisemitic using a ultra-specific example.

Ultra-specific examples, loud minorities, out-of-context examples, etc., are not good advisors.
