초록

This study examines Current Situation of the Muslim immigrant in Korean society and Their Cultural Conflict caused by religious identity mainly through Semi-structured interviews. The researcher organized a set of predetermined open-ended questions before going into the field. He interviewed in depth 14 Muslim immigrant-Korean spouse families, and several foreign muslim individuals living in Korea.
Since the globalization, many changes are occurring in our society. Multicultural phenonmenon in the society is becoming one of our major concern in the Korean society. The number of foreigners in our society has recently increased, while the rising number of interracial marriages of foreigners and Koreans has led to a growing interest in multicultural families. Illumination of this situation by various mass media outlets and local government activities has resulted in greater understanding of multicultural families.
Present Korean culture does not easily accommodate the different religious and cultural practices of immigrants. The Islamic influence that permeates the lives of a large proportion of immigrants belonging to Muslim groups in Korea is especially distinctive.
One of the consequences of globalization is the rise of intermarriage. It is often assumed that intermarriage for ethnic minorities is the ultimate litmus test of integration. Assimilation refers to the myriad social processes that bring ethnic minorities into the mainstream of economic, political, and family life of Korean Society. Especially the Indonesian Muslim women and their children's acculturation types were described to be mostly assimilation.
The research could be significant in that it has yielded some insight into the ways in which Muslims adjust to Korean culture, thus providing a basis for evaluating the future prospects of this group, and understanding the ways in which their activities affect Korean society .
