초록
This research explores the experiences of migrant workers within Korean society and Korean churches. In particular, this research investigates the experiences of women migrant workers that are directly derived from their gender. Since the 1990s, the Korean government has imported labor from other nations due to a labor shortage and low birthrate. As of 2009, there were about 450,000 documented and 200,000 undocumented migrant workers in Korea. They experience languag ebarriers, cultural differences, physical and verbal violence, and so on. Women migrant workers experience sexual harassment and violence as well. However, they experience many programs that address their religious and social needs. In consequence, while their experience with their work is negative, their experience with their Korean churches is positive.
