On October 2, 2022, President Russell M. Nelson announced plans to construct a temple in Busan, Korea.[1]

The Busan Korea Temple will be the second temple in Korea. Nearly 90,000 Latter-day Saints in 100 congregations live in the country. The southeastern city of Busan is Korea’s busiest port. Latter-day Saint service members brought the Church’s teachings to Korea in the 1940s. In 1973 the Seoul Korea Stake, the first stake in mainland Asia, was organized.
