Islam in South Korea
- 01
Daud Kim, a popular Korean pop singer and YouTuber who converted to Islam in 2019 and recently announced plans to build a mosque, is facing many obstacles in implementing his plan for a mosque in Incheon. Local residents strongly oppose the construction of the mosque.
A memorandum of understanding was signed between the Office of Muslims of Uzbekistan and the Federation of Muslims of South Korea. It envisages the establishment of religious education and the exchange of imams' experience, and the organization of educational talks by Uzbek imams at mosques in areas where there are many migrant workers in South Korea.
