“The Diocese of Jeonju is a Church deeply rooted in the history of the Catholic faith in Korea—a place where many of the faithful gave their lives to remain true to their beliefs.” 🙏 A Church Built on Faith The Catholic faith in Korea did not begin easily. During its early days, there were many persecutions, and countless believers chose to lay down their lives rather than deny their faith. The Jeonju region is also part of this history. This Church is not simply built of buildings, but is founded upon the lives of those who remained faithful. 🙏 A Land of Martyrs Here, you will encounter the stories of those who chose suffering and even death in order to remain faithful. They were not extraordinary people, but ordinary individuals who chose to believe in God until the very end. Their faith continues to live on and remains at the heart of the Diocese of Jeonju today. 🙏 An Experience for Pilgrims Pilgrims who visit the Diocese of Jeonju do more than simply see historical sites. They encounter the lives of those who truly lived out their faith and experience a living community that continues to carry that faith forward.

Seoul, the capital of Korea, is a place where you can experience diverse cultures and the energy of a modern city. It is a dynamic city where many things happen quickly, offering a wide range of experiences in a fast-paced environment. In contrast, Jeonju is a city where tradition and daily life are still alive, allowing for a more relaxed and immersive experience. In Jeonju, you can walk through alleyways lined with traditional hanok houses, encounter local life up close, and spend meaningful time within a community. Rather than a fast-moving trip, Jeonju is a place for a journey—one where you stay, connect, and build relationships.
