Korean Immigration to Hawaii

Information about the first Korean immigrants in Hawaii including where they came from and why they moved to Hawaii.

The first Korean contract laborers arrived in Hawaii on the S. S. Gaelic on January 12, 1903, to work on Hawaii's sugar plantations.

Nearly 8000 Koreans arrive in Hawaii between 1903 and 1905, but at that time the Korean government stopped immigration to Hawaii because of reports that Korean workers were mistreated in Mexico.

Korean brides arrived in Hawaii between 1921 and 1925.
