Abstract

La presencia de nuevos movimientos religiosos cristianos, también conocidos como sectas, aunque este término incluye un matiz peyorativo, es cada vez más evidente en Corea del Sur. En la actualidad hay alrededor de dieciocho grupos operativos, entre los que destacan cinco: la Federación de Familias para la Paz y la Unificación Mundial, más conocida como la Iglesia de la Unificación; la Iglesia Shincheonji de Jesús: el Templo del Tabernáculo del Testimonio; La Iglesia de Dios Sociedad Misionera Mundial; la Misión Cristiana del Evangelio, más conocida como Jesus Morning Star (JMS); y Guwonpa, también llamada Good News Mission. Este trabajo indagará el origen de los primeros nuevos movimientos religiosos cristianos, emergidos en el norte de la península durante la ocupación japonesa, así como su expansión por el sur con el fin de la guerra de Corea. Por último, se centrará en el grupo cristiano más influyente del país a nivel internacional: la Iglesia de la Unifi cación.
