“…To be sure, this movement was cheered on by certain segments of society. Undoubtedly, however, it was also repudiated by others, 3 those in favor of granting political asylum (Choi and Jang 2019). Their logic was that as a signatory, as of 1992, to the UN Refugee Convention, Korea had a responsibility to not only hear the desperate plea of Yemeni refugees but grant them a legal residency status.…”

“…5 People who supported the petition wanted the government to acknowledge the "illegal nature" of the asylum seekers and to amend, if not annul, the Refugee Act to prevent future incidents. In many ways, this e-petition was the physical and symbolic manifestation of the xenophobic sentiment in Korea at the time, marked by unashamedly nativist and blatantly anti-foreigner rhetoric (Choi and Jang 2019;Choi and Park 2020). It was also a turning point for the pro-refugee counter protestors, as well as those who had until then remained neutral, many of whom became disillusioned by the exclusionary (ethnocentric) views and opinions of their compatriots.…”

Research on attitudes toward immigrants and refugees largely focuses on intergroup conflict and related threats imposed by outgroup members. This study shifts the analytic focus to intragroup conflict: a domestic struggle among natives over how to handle recently arrived refugees and on their perception of foreign workers in general and Muslims in particular. By exploiting an exogenous variation in the interview timing of a nationally representative survey conducted in South Korea, a “new immigration destination,” this study offers a causal estimate (local average treatment effect) of domestic societal conflict on outgroup attitudes. Results from regression discontinuity (RD) analysis show that in its aftermath—immediately following the completion of a controversial e-petition sponsored by the anti-refugee group demanding that the government extradite asylum seekers—the public opinion of Korean adults toward foreign workers and Muslims became more, not less, favorable. Heterogeneous treatment effects are also found across two respondent-level characteristics: cosmopolitan identity and relative deprivation. Specifically, the focal relationship is more pronounced among individuals who identify less with cosmopolitan citizenship and among those who are more relatively deprived.
