Abstract

Through the story of Korean Bible Women and the South Korean #MeToo movement today, this paper explores how Korean women's innate creativity and imagination have challenged the patriarchal and hierarchical standpoints of the Korean Protestant church and society. Furthermore, this paper invites the Korean Protestant Church to confront the reality of women's struggles and to remember and re-value Korean women's agency by co-operating and listening to the survivors of sexual violence in the community so that they can participate in God's ongoing creation by responding #WithYou to the voices of #MeToo in church and society.
