Abstract
The objective of this research is to clarify the characteristics of formation process of row houses block No.5 in Higashikujo, Kyoto, which mostly occupied by Korean, focusing on a shift in right of lands and buildings. The research also aims to reveal the process of a change in right of ownership and life style of people due to transformation in living spatial configuration of row houses block. Using the oral history for analysis, the characteristics of transformation process of row houses block can be concluded as follows; 1. In the beginning, each family of Korean who usually are relatives or came from the same local area in Korea immigrated to the area. 2. The early stage of transformation is the outcome of changing the original living spatial configuration to meet the life styles and living patterns of Korean who was still mere tenants. 3. The next stage of transformation when Korean had gained the right of lands and building, is the result of making sure of stable and peaceful living environment by them.
