Race privilege is a social privilege in which certain races are more favored or benefited than others. The most representative example of racial privilege is white privilege, but as a local and cultural phenomenon, certain races are socially favored, similar to white privilege. Among the racial privileges, there are cases of granting institutional benefits to certain races, such as the Bumiputera policy.

Case by race

Japanese

Japan was once an imperialist country similar to other white mainstream Western countries such as France and Britain, and the Japanese have enjoyed privileges as a people of colonial rulers in many regions. During the Japanese Empire, the Japanese enjoyed many privileges in China (before the Second Sino-Japanese War). During the apartheid in South Africa, many non-white people, including Asians, faced institutional racism. However, 'all' Japanese were exceptionally classified as "Honorary Whites", and thus many of the legal and institutional benefits enjoyed by white people could be enjoyed equally by the Japanese, although notably they were still disallowed from voting.

South Korean experts point out that Japanese are rarely subjected to racial discrimination, unlike non-Korean Asians living in other South Korea. Unlike Japanese, who are considered similar to whites in South Korea, other Asians, including Chinese, are much more racial discriminated against in South Korea. The Korea was a Japanese colony from 1910 to 1945. Professor Yuji Hosaka said, "In South Korea, anti-Japanese sentiment is usually expressed only for the Japan's country, the government, and Japanese historical revisionism, but it is not expressed to Japanese people in daily life". Yuji Hosaka is a non-Korean race Japanese-born naturalized South Korean. According to liberal Hankyoreh's opinion, the Japanese have been treated as white over Asians in many regions (including South Korea) and have long had a sense of ethnic superiority over Chinese and Koreans. Some Japanese scholars also analyzed that there is a Japanese privilege similar to white privilege.
