Not an expert. Just surface observations.
Where I live there are a lot of South Korean-Christian churches serving the S Korean American community, so I just assumed it was a common religion there. It was my understanding that South Korea today is one of the most western like cultures in Asia, so it didn’t surprise me. We had an influx of S. Korean immigrants after the Korean War, and over the years while we’ve been allies and held a military presence on S. Korean soil. Ive worked with a few retired military persons who met their spouse while stationed in South Korea.
On a side note Christianity may be an exclusive religion (1st commandment: thou shall not worship any gods before me), but from my understanding Buddhism is not. Perhaps it’s possible to be both without any conflicting beliefs. I know there are plenty of conflicting beliefs already wired into Christianity. What’s a few more between peaceful religions.
