A New Orthodox Parish in Korea
St. Dionysios Orthodox Church opened a few months back in my wife's hometown, Ulsan, becoming the seventh Orthodox parish in the country. As far as I can tell, the parish has no homepage yet, but Korean-speakers can read about its founding from a local Orthodox bulletin board: 울산 성 디오니시오스 정교회 성당.
The above photo comes from the "EDITORIAL" page of a consulting firm. Scroll down to see more photos of the church's exterior and interior. On this page we learn that the church was founded by shipping magnate Captain Vasilis and Carmen Constantakopoulos. Another photo and more information can be found on Father Na's bilingual homepage: 정교회 한국대교구 인천 성 바울로 성당.
