Disgraced Korean Cloner
Now that he's acheived victim status, his star is rising: Public Rallies Behind Fallen Scientist.

Interestingly, apart from the Catholic Church, it is the Left, God bless them, who have been most critical of Dr. Hwang's research:

MBC, a broadcasting corporation, and the Democratic Labor party have been bombarded with criticism for raising human egg trading allegations in its program “PD’s notebook” and for issuing a critical statement, respectively.

The on-line mob Koreans call "netizens" are out in full force to defend the "Pride of Korea:"

As of November 25, more than 25,000 Koreans signed up for the renowned scientist’s fan club cafe called “I Love Hwang, Woo-suk” (cafe.daum.net/ilovehws). The managers of the site announced in a joint statement that they would stage a variety of campaigns, including collecting netizens’ signatures, boycotting commercials for PD’s Notebook, and boycotting MBC programs, including its news programs.

The article does not mention Catholics, but the Church in Korea has been the most vocal critic of Dr. Hwang's clone-and-kill research. The same cannot be said of other religions:

In addition, a dozen Buddhist organizations, including the Budda Dongsan, the Buddhist human rights commission, the National Young Buddhists Association, and the Buddhism Bioethics Institute joined forces to create an association called “Korean Buddhists support Hwang Woo-suk.”
