초록

China is certainly rising to great-power status in the global economy and politics. This fact makes China accelerate its pace of globalization. The reasons for the emergence of the Chinese Diaspora could be the status of China in the global economy and international politics, its overseas movement due to the population growth, and its nonintervention policy on the religious life of Chinese abroad. As the number of Chinese Diaspora is increasing in the world, it is getting attention from Chinese churches in England, U.S., Canada, and Hong Kong, which are more advanced and mature. For, those churches are regarding the new immigrants as the subjects to evangelize.
After the cold war between the US and the Soviet Union ended, China began to have an open-door policy. As a result, it could achieve vigorous interchanges with other nations and establish diplomatic ties with Korea too. There is a need to consider those people coming to Korea to be the resources for the mission work.
My interest is on establishing strategies for the evangelization of the world through the cooperation work with the Chinese Diaspora living in Korea. Here in this paper, the word ‘Chinese Diaspora living in Korea’ does not only mean native Chinese in Korea but also those Chinese speakers from Southeast countries. For the research method, due to the lack of time, the articles uploaded on portal sites and studies related to the topic will be used.
The purpose of writing this paper is to introduce the mission of Reversal-Recycling Contextualization model by studying the reason of the emergence of Chinese Diaspora in Korea and making them resources for the mission work.
China’s open-door policy and diplomatic ties with Korea played a crucial role in developing relationship between Korea and the Chinese Diaspora living in Korea. Korean Diasporas in China under the name of Joseonjok couldn’t do anything but live with hard feelings as a minority group on the fringes of society.
But since the two countries established diplomatic ties, they could freely visit Korea, build and maintain relationship with their relatives, and live in Korea. Through marriage, a position in the work place, and business start-ups, they could settle down in Korea. Moreover, other than the people of Joseonjok, Han Chinese and international students are visiting Korea along with ‘Korean Wave’ (called hallyu), which expanded cultural exchanges.
There is now a strategy being used in Western countries which is to evangelize the Chinese Diaspora especially scholars. Scholars in Campus or in Chinese communities are classified as the ones for missionary group and they are leading a high rate of conversion. A common feature among new Chinese Christians is that many of them are highly educated in China. And most of them learn about Christianity in abroad. So a majority of them, in the country where they reside, evangelize their families, friends and co-workers who are still in China with the faith of Christianity.
While the Chinese Diaspora are living in Korea, Korean churches should take it as an opportunity and wisely use this chance to spread the Gospel with the missionary purpose. To do so, R-R contextualization model of mission should be applied. This model suggests the function of Reversal and Recyling contextualization together for the Chinese Diaspora mission. I would like to call it a recursive function of centripetal and centrifugal force in biblical mission theology. It refers to a strategy that makes the Chinese Diaspora living in Korea learn and experience spiritual life in Christianity and be trained spiritually so that they could evangelize the people around them when they go back to their homeland. Thus, this kind of mission does not end as a one-shot event but become expanded in the structure of recursive circulation.
First of all, we need to train leaders and send them out by educating the evangelism theology. And churches should actively engage in the reception of the Chinese Diaspora and turn them into Christians through trainings. Also, we need to provide discipleship-trainings to the international students who come to Korea to learn new knowledge. Lastly, we need to build a Christian community where people can cooperate and live together by establishing social unity through welfare mission with the purpose of perfect salvation, which could bring all the Chinese Diaspora together.
