The most common religions in South Korea are Christianity and Buddhism (both 26%).
I would like to think you're joking saying that you though only whites were Christians, given that there are literally millions of blacks and Hispanics are Christian and most people have seen a Korean Baptist church at some point in their lives.

Koreans are mainly buddhists, christians and non-religious.
LOL, only whites can be christians? Some stats to you:
85% of Philippines is christian
3% of China is christian (30 million people!)
45% of Africa is christian
>95% of Latin America is christian (and 70% of Latin America is non-white)
About 40% of christians are non-white (own estimative).
The new general secretary of UN, the South Korean Ban Ki-Moon, is a christian.

A Christian is someone who believes and follows the ways of Jesus Christ. Anyone who wants to be Christian can be a Christian whether they're Korean, White, Black, Hispanic, Indian, whatever.

A number of different traditions exist in the religion of Korea. Buddhism, Christianity, Confucianism, and traditional shamanism all play a role in Korea's religious tradition. The modern separation of Korea into North and South Korea has also shaped religious practice, especially in the communist North.
Christianity is all over the world. It's had 2000 years to spread.

We'll you were sure wrong not all white people are christians. All races can be christians and yes Koreans can be Christians too. Any race can. Maybe if you attended a Christian church service with her, you would learn that!

Anyone who chooses to lead a Christ-like life is a Christian. Nationality has nothing to do with it.
