The Korea Baptist Convention is a Baptist denominational body in the Republic of Korea. Its beginnings hark back to 1949, when the Church of Christ in East Asia made contact with Southern Baptists in the United States. Baptists in Korea have experienced remarkable growth, and in 1998 numbered almost 650,000 in 2215 congregations.[citation needed]
