Etymology

edit

First attested in Hangul form in the Worin seokbo (月印釋譜 / 월인석보), 1459. Probably a native Korean word, but possibly a corruption of Middle Chinese 東夷 (MC tuwng yij, “eastern barbarian”). The first attestation of the Korean word is Japanese; a 1019 raid on the Japanese island of Kyushu by Jurchen pirates is still referred to as the Toi invasion in Japan, after the Korean word for this unfamiliar people.
