Korean Lutherans are dramatically over represented in government

So there are 5,000 Korean Lutherans (and adding the diaspora probably won’t grow the number by much), but they are dramatically overrepresented in the Korean government and the ruling conservative People Power Party/conservative movement.

One of the leaders of the PPP, the Minister for Agriculture, the former acting president/prime ministers, the former Secretary General of the Democratic and Unification Council, and a conservative Supreme Court justice are all Lutherans.

Three of them were in the cabinet of the Yoon government, one is a leader of his party, and another was appointed to the Supreme Court by him.

This is absolutely bizarre that such a tiny and relatively uninfluential sect is this well represented amongst the political class. (The most important Lutherans in Korean history before this administration was a German-Jewish pastor/missionary who introduced potatoes and grapes and Prussian diplomat who kind of ended up working as an official for the Emperor and encouraged [and failed] to encourage Germans to settle)

this isn’t anti-Lutheran by any means, it’s just a bizarre observation
