The term Lai Dai Han (or sometimes Lai Daihan/Lai Tai Han) (lai Đại Hàn in Vietnamese: pronounced [laːi ɗâˀi hâːn]; Korean: 라이따이한) is a Vietnamese term for a racially mixed person born to a South Korean father and a Vietnamese mother, specifically during the Vietnam War. Political controversies continue due to the fact that some of the generation were conceived through wartime sexual assault, which is currently unacknowledged by the South Korean government, and due to the unequal and discriminatory treatment they have faced from the Vietnamese government.
