As to the previous answer about South Korea, I disagree with parts of the answer. I would say they are a middle income country (their GDP is around $27,000 a year compared with $47,000 in the US).

I also think the numbers given for Christians is low, I'd say it's closer to 40-45%.

It's also worth noting that 10% of the population is non-Korea (foreigners living here).
