     At that time, although my eldest brother was in Hoeryeong, his wife was in Joyangcheon and I had no other family in Korea. When the Korean Voluntary Army and Anti-Japanese United Forces began land reform in Yeonbyeon (Yanbian), they accepted the private property rights and did not confiscate land from Koreans who had borrowed loans from the Oriental Development Company to buy it.

     This study investigates the utterable genderlect found in the Korean language used in Yeonbeon^{[sic – meaning Yeonbyeon]} area, China. It is regrettable that we find hardly any work on this gender-preferential language in Yeonbeon^{[sic – meaning Yeonbyeon]} Korean when the researches on the subject of language and gender overflow in foreign literature. Analysing the men's and women's genderlect appearing in the novels written by women writers in Yeonbyeon, I will specify the linguistics features of those genderlect on three dimensions; phonology, grammar, and glossary.
