The article examines the activities of Korean national organizations in the Urals, in particular, on the territory of the contemporary Sverdlovsk region in the context of Soviet national policy of the 1920s. Two key organizations of that period, the Korean national Union and the “Union of Korean workers”, became the subject of research. In the first half of the 1920s, new opportunities in national construction opened up for the ethnic groups in the new Soviet state. All these trends were also typical for the Urals. Various associations were actively created on the national principle, including the ethnic group of Koreans. According to the all-Union Census of 1920, the number of Koreans in the Ural region was about 500-600. In 1920, branches of the “Korean national Union” (“Union of Korean citizens”) and later the “Union of Korean workers” were officially registered in Yekaterinburg (Sverdlovsk). At the same time, Korean organizations appeared in the future Perm, Tyumen, and Chelyabinsk Regions. Representatives of the organizations actively interacted with Korean organizations throughout the country, participated in key congresses and meetings, were involved in the activities of the Communist International (Comintern), and engaged in active economic activities. However, after 1925, organizations' activities throughout the country were stopped and even became strictly prohibited, due to the radical changing course of Soviet state's national politics.
