UbuKristu bafika eKorea ngexesha lokuhlasela kweJapan ngo-1592 xa abanye abantu baseKorea babhaptizwa, mhlawumbi ngamajoni angamaJapan. Ukushunyayelwa kube nzima kuba iKorea iyalile nayiphi na indibaniselwano nehlabathi ngaphandle kokuthatha irhafu eBeijing minyaka le. Ngesinye isihlandlo, malunga ne-1777, uncwadi lobuKristu olufunyenwe ngamaJesuit e-China lwakhokelela kumaKorea afundileyo ukuba afunde. Yaqala indlu icawe.
