They usually came from China, or at least use chinese chracter like many korean words.

Korean had used Chinease characters to write, Until king Sejon세종대왕 made hangul한글. If you already know other east asian languages like japanesase or vietnamease, It is familiar to you. It's because China중국 was the Center중심 of East Asia. Korean delivered Chinease character to japan. Someone call East Asia as Chinease culture. It's really true.
