My corner of America is a destination of choice for Koreans coming to the US, many have even left LA for here (NW Nassau County & Northern Queens). The various protestant sects of this area in previous decades were mordant until the ROKS took them over. Now they are flourishing and spreading. All the Sunday message signs are in Hangul

My town has Koreans, Persians, Russians, Israelis, Chinese, Hindians, South Americans, Poles, Irish, damn near every kind of immigrant (all educated and legal - homes here start at $750k). The ROKS are top of the list in every desirable category. They value God, family, work, education and the arts. If they have any bandwidth left they golf. I am extremely impressed by them.

Me too! I hosted a Korean missionary and his family for a while. The are a very sharp people, have a lot of pride for all things Korean, and ... (this is always funny to me...), say that the Japanese stole most of their ideas from the Koreans.

The Koreans seem to be doing for the Presbyterians what the Africans have done for the Anglicans.
