Category:Korean women lawyers
![]() | This is a non-diffusing subcategory of Category:Korean lawyers. It includes lawyers that can also be found in the parent category, or in diffusing subcategories of the parent. |
This category is for women lawyers holding the nationality of undivided Korea. In general this means people who practiced law during Korea under Japanese rule (1910–1945), the Korean Empire (1897–1910), the Joseon Dynasty (1392–1897), or preceding time periods.
People of the Korean peninsula who practiced law after 1948 normally do not belong in this category, but should be placed in the subcategories Category:North Korean women lawyers or Category:South Korean women lawyers based on their nationality, place of origin, or place of residence. However, Korean people living abroad who never had any national affiliation with either North or South Korea (such as Koreans in Japan who never declared a change of nationality from Chōsen-seki), or whose nationality is not publicly known, should remain in this category. Common sense should be used to determine whether people who practiced law between 1945 to 1948 belong in this category rather than North or South Korean subcategories.
