}}Minjung theology ({{Korean|hangul=민중신학|rr=Minjung Sinhak|lit=the people's theology}}) emerged in the 1970s from the experience of South Korean Christians in the struggle for social justice. It is a people's theology, and, according to its authors, "a development of the political hermeneutics of the Gospel in terms of the Korean reality."[1]

History

Minjung theology began in South Korea in the 1970s with figures such as Ahn Byung-mu, often considered the "father of minjung theology," Suh Nam-dong, David Kwang-sun Suh, and Kim Yong-bock.[2] Minjung, which means the "people" in the communist sense of the proletariat, is made up of people who are ostracized by the larger community.

It is part of a wider Asian theological ferment, but it was not designed for export. It "is firmly rooted in a particular situation, and growing out of the struggles of Christians who embrace their own history as well as the universal message of the Bible."{{cite quote|date=June 2017}}

As South Korea has grown to be more a prosperous nation, later generations of minjung theologians have needed to reevaluate who are the poor and oppressed minjung of Korea. As such, a number of minjung theologians have focused on questions of reunification with North Korea, identifying the minjung as all those oppressed in both Koreas.[3]
