[All] Who are the idol members descended from the Japanese Colonial Government? Japan, Yuushi, Sana, Rei, Asa, Luka
Recently, centered around online communities
Controversy is growing as claims spread that Japanese idol surnames are connected to records of service at the Japanese Government-General of Korea.
The issue has escalated, particularly as several Japanese idols, including NCT WISH's Yuushi, were mentioned together.
However, this content is a claim based on unofficial research data originating from a specific community, and
First, it is necessary to point out that this is not a confirmed fact to date.
1. Controversy Begins: 'Surname-Based Survey' from the Community
This controversy started with a post written on a community forum.
Based on idols with rare surnames in Japan,
They stated that they compiled the data by comparing whether the surname appears in the database of modern and contemporary Korean history.
In this process, as it was confirmed that some surnames actually appeared in the employment records of the Government-General of Korea,
Idols using that surname have started to be mentioned together.
However, it is important to note that this investigation is merely a verification of surname matching, not evidence proving a family connection.
2. Why were the mentioned idols grouped together?
In the controversial post, rather than singling out specific individuals,
I have compiled a list of Japanese idols who share the same surname.
In this process
Members of various groups, such as Yuushi, Sakuya, Rei, Asa, Luka, Harua, and Amaru, were mentioned together.
<Bound Standards>
- Japanese nationality
- rare surnames
- Existence of surnames with identical Chinese characters
In other words, because they are bound together solely by the common element of a surname, rather than by the specific actions or history of an individual,
Actual family relationships or historical connections have not been confirmed.
3. Key Argument: “If the surnames are the same, doesn’t that mean the families are connected?”
The argument raised in the community is simple.
The logic is that the rarer the surname, the higher the likelihood of belonging to the same family, and if that surname appears in records of employment at the Japanese Government-General of Korea, isn't there a possibility that the person is a descendant?
Furthermore, the controversy appears to have expanded further as some point out that the wealthy class and the administrative participation class may have been connected during the Japanese colonial period.
However, this is also merely an estimation of possibility and has not been confirmed as an actual family tree or lineage.
4. Counterargument: “It is unreasonable to connect them based solely on surnames”
Conversely, strong opinions criticizing this are also emerging.
Just because they have the same surname does not mean they belong to the same family, and
The argument is that simple comparisons are meaningless, especially in Japan, where the population with the same surname is often distributed across various regions.
Also, since we are not currently a society where the system of guilt by association applies,
There are also many opinions that even if ancestral history exists, it is inappropriate to connect it to the current individual.
Ultimately, unless there is official confirmation or a statement from the agency regarding this issue,
It is highly likely to remain in the estimation and interpretation stage.
