This study investigated attitudes concerning the invitation of immigrants' foreign parents and analyzed migration policies regarding the reunification of elderly parents. Sponsoring elderly parents is regarded as a significant factor facilitating immigrants' integration in certain countries. The research delved into attitudes regarding support obligations towards elderly parents, particularly focusing on China, Vietnam, and Japan, the primary sending countries for immigrants in Korea, to gauge their potential needs. To assess public consensus on inviting immigrant parents, we examined attitudes towards the relationships between adult children and their parents and towards the invitation of immigrant parents. Recent policies in Canada and New Zealand were compared to those in Korea regarding family sponsorship. Suggestions were made for future policy revisions based on these findings.
