However, based on analysis of longitudinal interview data collected from among 11 young Korean people living in Australia I demonstrate that studying Japanese language helped some participants to consolidate their position in Australian society. During the interviews the majority of participants mentioned that in Australia, Japanese language was more popular and well-known among Australians compared to Korean language and culture. In particular, two of the participants found that studying Japanese language and acquiring Japanese oficiency played a valuable role in allowing them to form social networks with local Australians, and finding employment. In this way, accessing the soft power of Japanese language in Australia allowed the participants to gain a secure place in Australian society.}, pages = {107--112}, title = {日本語のソフトパワーを通じてオーストラリアの社会に居場所を作り出す韓国人}, year = {2019} }
