This book offers a psychohistorical analysis of the rapid growth of
the Korean Protestant Church. KwangYu Lee looks at some of the
traumatic historical events of Korea in the 20th century, including
the fall of the Joseon Dynasty (1392-1910), the Japanese Occupation
(1910-1945), the Korean War (1950-1953), and the Korean Military
Dictatorship (1961-1987), and explores the psychological impacts of
these events on the collective unconsciousness of Koreans. He
argues that Koreans' collective (or cultural) complex of
inferiority, which was caused and gradually exacerbated by these
traumatic events, along with their psychological relationships with
their two colonizers-the Japanese and Americans-prompted them to
convert to Korean Protestantism en masse as a means to avoid their
psychological pains and to fulfil their futile desire to become
like Americans, their overtly idealized psychological-object.
