ABSTRACT
The March First Movement made Japan completely change its colonial policy in Korea. The new governor-general implemented a so-called cultural rule. This chapter deals with Korean Protestantism under this rule. It tells of the burgeoning Protestant publications and the revival movement in the 1920s–1930s. The revival movement at this time was led by charismatic Korean leaders instead of missionaries and was characterized by otherworldly aspirations. The Christian nationalist movement, especially overseas activities, continued. This chapter concludes with a description of the Korean Church’s overseas missions and the development of Korean diaspora churches in East Asia and the Americas.
