Korean Catholic Rite?

Anonymous asks this question:

This more recent Virginian-Pilot article mentions a Korean Catholic Rite...is this a universal rite or just another example of Richmond Diocesan liturgical permissiveness?

All Catholics in good standing! Here is the parish website...

You can also look them up on the Diocesan Website. Here is the link for the Community:

If you were an American living in Korea, wouldn't you be happy to attend a parish where you could hear Mass in your own language and enjoy a St. Patrick's Day parade, etc.?

Is anyone out there from the Redemptorist parishes in Tidewater? What will happen when the Redemptorists priests leave? The diocese can't cover the parishes it already has.
