Haejo Sinmun[a] was a daily Korean-language newspaper published in the Korean enclave Sinhanch'on, Vladivostok, Russian Empire in 1908.

[4][5] Beginning in the late 19th century, Koreans began migrating out of Korea and into the Russian Far East in search of economic opportunity.

[2] The newspaper was initially organized by Chŏng Sunman (정순만; 鄭淳萬) and financed by Ch'oe Pongjun (최봉준; 崔鳳俊).

[2] They distributed copies of the newspaper not only in Russia, but also in Manchuria[3] and in the Korean cities of Seoul, Wonsan, Incheon, Kaesong, and Pyongyang.

[1] Around 1,569 copies were reportedly confiscated, and the Japanese government also applied pressure to close the newspaper altogether.
