The group of "Korean temples" in the suburbs of Osaka, where the largest number of Koreans inJapan reside, is a religious phenomenon consisting of a syncretism of Korean Shamanism, Korean Buddhism, and Japanese mountain religion. In this paper I will outline the present situation of these Korean temples in Japan and reflect on the significance they hold for the Koreans inJapan andJapanese society. The "resentment" (han 'tR ) of the spirits of the dead, which is to be purified through shamanistic rituals, is a religious expression of the collective misfortune of the Koreans inJapan which is continually reproduced by the structural discrimination ofJapanese society.

It also contains, as the basic ethnic culture of Koreans in Japan, the potential to serve as a womb for the formation of their culture and identity.
