Abstract
The present study intends to describe Korea’s state policy on religion, focusing on the way how the state regulates or supports religions, especially Protestant Christianity, for certain interests. The research given is treated in three successive time periods: 1945 to the early 1960s, the early 1960s to 1987, and 1988 to 2010. This study also gives a prospective view of the Korean state’s policy on religion in the future and offers some suggestions to secure positive relations between the Korean state and religious groups, including Protestant Christianity.
