All boards have trolls, but only /jp/ gets oni.

At least, only /jp/ gets oni in frilly dresses.

It's very rough, though, I don't actually know the details. It's folklore, so the definitions aren't always clear. For example, Western books on Asian mythology almost never use terms like "youkai" or "oni" - they prefer "spirit" or "ogre".

Long story made short, Tibet through China to Japan. Not sure if Korea has any directly related oni legends.
