This research examines the impact of the 3.11 earthquake (in Tohoku in 2011) on Korean students who lived in Japan at the time so that it offers data to the Koreans who are considering Japan for their overseas studies. The research involves five Korean students (two from Tokyo and three from Fukuoka) who were interviewed regarding their experiences about the 3.11. It reveals that the students in Tokyo increased their trust on Japan and Japanese people as well as their self-confidence as foreign students after the earthquake, while those in Fukuoka did not show any notable changes except for their concern about the influences of atomic radiation.
