Similar to Indonesia and Malaysia, South Korea was also under Japanese colonial rule from 1910 to 1945. Against this historical background, Japanese expressions or Japanese writing methods in Korean society are very commonly used today. The use of Japanese expressions and methods can easily be found in legal sentences and official documents used by the government.
