The Korean Socialist Party (Korean한인사회당) was a socialist party of Korea.[1] The party was founded in 1918 in Khabarovsk, Soviet Russia.[1][2] In April 1919, the party merged with the Korean Democratic Corps (대한신민단; 大韓新民團) at the second representative congress of Korean Socialist Party.[3][5] And in 1921, the party merged with Korean communist groups of Irkutsk and was renamed as the Korean Communist Party.[5]
