The Chinese Korean language (Korean중국조선말; Hancha中國朝鮮말; RRJungguk Joseonmal, lit.'China Joseon language') is the variety of the Korean language spoken by Koreans in China who have Chinese nationality, primarily located in Heilongjiang, Jilin, and Liaoning.

All varieties of Korean except the Jeju language are spoken by members of the Korean diaspora who settled in China before 1949. The educational standard is the North Korean standard language.

Chinese Korean vocabulary is significantly similar to the North Korean standard, as is orthography; a major exception of orthography is that the spelling of some Chinese cities is different (for example, Harbin is referred to by the Sino-Korean name of 哈尔滨, 합빈/합이빈, Habin, rather than the South Korean transcription of Mandarin Haerbin, 하얼빈); exceptions of vocabulary are all related to China.
