Dr. Yi started with an explanation of the Islamic religion and went on to explain the history of Islam in Korea and an overview of Muslims in Korea.<br \/>\nShe introduced the number of Muslims migrated and living in Korea, their major nationalities, occupations, and housing concentrations, based on which she went on to explain how the Muslims of each nationality are organizing religious communities in Korea, centering around the Sunni Muslim communities of Indonesia and Pakistan.<br \/>\nKyu-lin Cho (SNUAC 12th Cohort Research Intern, HUFS) commented that the lecture was a valuable session through which we learned of various members of the Muslim community in Korea, and that the participants could think about the lives that Muslims are living in Korea.<\/p>\n<p>Review &amp; photos by DooWon Chang (Academic Reporter)<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Date:\u00a0October 31st, Thursday, 2019 15:00-16:30 Location:\u00a0Room 304, SNUAC (Bldg. 101) This colloquium will examine the &#8216;life of migrant Muslims in Korea&#8217; largely in two aspects.
