Manchuria and the "Far Eastern Front" have to be my most favorite awards, great post :D thanks for sharing these with us :)
The writing on the bottom right and left of the paper looks Korean, but its too small for me to make it out. If you want a translation of the Korean on the medal or the paper, just send a better copy over pm (or email) :D

As someone who translates Korean, I can assure all it is certainly not Korean. For a start it does not meet the 3 character block parameters.
Plenty of examples of Korean (translated or otherwise) in the DPRK section.

I wondered why your soldier was assigned to the 190 Rifle Division, though in conclusion he was awarded by the 10 Rifle Division.
For you young enough to never have used an actual typewriter... seems the 190 Rifle Division's awards citation typewriter had problems impressing the digit "9", thus when typed it skipped over the faulty key and appears as 1_0 Rifle Division.
