Biography

Blessed Agatha Yun Jeomhye, also known as Agatha, was a lay woman martyr in the apostolic vicariate of Korea. She was born in Gyeonggi-do, South Korea, and little is known about her early life or background. However, her unwavering faith and devotion to the Catholic Church during a time of intense persecution in Korea make her an exceptional figure in the history of Korean Catholicism.
