The title “Our Lady of Korea” honors the Blessed Virgin Mary as the loving mother and protector of the Korean people. This devotion grew alongside the Catholic faith in Korea, which was built on the witness of countless martyrs who gave their lives for Christ. Depicted in a graceful Korean hanbok, Our Lady of Korea symbolizes both the universality of Mary’s motherhood and her closeness to the Korean faithful, embracing their culture and history in her maternal care.
Devotion to Our Lady of Korea emphasizes Mary’s role as Mother of Peace, intercessor in times of trial, and guide for the faithful. Many turn to her for strength, unity, and protection, especially in moments of hardship, as she continues to watch lovingly over the Church in Korea and beyond.
She is honored as patroness of Korea and Korean Catholics, reminding all believers that Mary’s love reaches across nations and cultures.
This beautifully crafted statue portrays Our Lady in traditional Korean attire, radiating peace, grace, and maternal protection. Placing it in your home is a way of entrusting your family to her care and seeking her prayers for peace and faithfulness.
The feast day of Our Lady of Korea is celebrated on May 31, coinciding with the Feast of the Visitation, a day that highlights Mary’s humility, charity, and presence among her people.
