(Deheathenisation and secularisation of a heathen population is the first step to their christianisation.

In Koreea is not secularization ,its Americanization .
Secularization(separation of public sphere from religious sphere) is a good thing.Secularization is not the same thing as atheism.Secularization can happen even in states whit 0 atheists.Secularization protect people of different believes from the dictatorship of majority.
Coming back to Koreea:there is sold the story that Koreea backwardness was caused by confucianism,while christianism , especially protestant work ethics,was the cause for America success.Koreeans ,being pragmatics like chinese,convert to protestantism(in american variety) thus mimicking american values.
