The relationship between Japanese and Korean has been debated. Some claim that Japanese and Korean are both considered Altaic, along with other languages such as Turkish. Others claim that Japanese and Koreans are more closely related. Currently, Korean is believed to be a language isolate (and if this is true, it is the most used language isolate in the world) and Japanese belongs to the Japonic family, of which its classification remains unknown.
