Other Travel Tips
While there are Christians in all three of the countries you mention, the largest religion that they all share in common is Mahayana Buddhism.
Yes but I think it's mailnly Bhuddist
Korea is mostly Buddhist. During last 250 years, Christianity has made mentionable inroads. It is understood to have a mosque also near Seoul, but what is the size of Muslim population - no idea. Then there is Confuciunism, which is not an organized religion in that sense, but has clearly distinguishable character.

Coming to difficult part of question, China is a big country and being such has much more racial, regional and giographical diversity. It has Budhhists, Christian, Muslims, Confuciunism, Taoism. Dominant group is chinese which has originated centuries ago in north east, which has spread and forced kind of homogeneity within china, however, it is still diverse in many pockets.

Korea also has its origin around the same north-east geographical area, therefore, it is logical to deduce that China and Korea are two very similar groups, which moved in different directions.

I have read in a book by Jared Diamonds that Japan has its linkages with a splinter Korean klan around that point of time only. So you can see, they are really similar, it is separated living during all those years that they have adopted diverse social behaviour.
yes they are known for Christan's and Buddhist there are alot of christain churches.
I live in a tiny town outside of Taegu and within 1 km from my home there are 2 Buddhist temples ,1 Catholic church, 1 Baptist church, 1 Christian church and 1 Christian meeting hall....you get the picture . Koreans themselves are mainly Christian or Buddhist, But with all the different cultures here ( military, teachers, working visa's and etc) there are many different places of worship.
