Abstract
  • Korean churches have adopted traditional Western theologies without considering the religio-cultural heritage of Korea. Therefore, Korean churches have become strongly biased against traditional religions and various theatrical traditions. Korean Christianity, although very Western in its liturgy and appearances, is obviously quite shamanistic in its belief and behavior. In the Korean traditional theater, shinmyong is a special artistic experience characterizing the popular aesthetic consciousness of the Korean people. Shinmyong gives rise to the birth of the people's enthusiastic and participating worship, whether on an individual or a group level. The shinmyong is comparable to the Western Christian liturgical experience. Shinmyong is an embodiment and incarnation of the Spirit innate in each and every person. The church of Korea should acknowledge these theatrical phenomena as unique resources for the Christian liturgical theology. For the future, this artistic liturgical experience of shinmyong will contribute directly to the development of Korean church worship.
