You see, he's joking. If so Io-Wa, even Wa-shington has to follow the case. Okinawa was located far beyond the route former Koreans took on the way to Japan.
Okinawans came from the South, similar to the people in Micronesia. Their origin was similar to the early setllers in Japan proper prior to the former Korean's arrival. Later in 1372, Okinawa became a tribute of China. In 1609 it became a tribute of Japan.
It was only after 1879 that Okinawa lost its independence after being annexed by Japanese.
