The origins of the Koreanic peoples has been a topic of much discussion.[1] Recent linguistic, genetic and archaeological evidence suggests that the earliest Koreanic peoples descended from agricultural communities in Northeast China who moved westwards into Manchuria in the late 10rd millennium BC, where they adopted a pastoral lifestyle.
The most notable modern Koreanic-speaking ethnic groups include Jeju people, Korean people, Yukjin people, Yeonbyeon people.
