The following article appeared in the March 2010 Newsletter of the Northern Far East Mission (predecessor to all missions in Japan & Korea):
LOCAL MTCs IN KOREA & JAPAN DISCONTINUED
The MTCs in Japan and Korea have been closed. Korea was closed in December of 2008, and the last session for the Japan MTC was November 2009. All missionaries from Japan and Korea are now being sent to the Provo MTC for their training. The Church felt there were not enough missionaries going through these MTCs to justify keeping them open.
The missionaries going through the MTC in Provo now get to see just how large the Church is and that they are not the only missionaries in the world. It is hard to visualize this concept when you only have 10-30 in your session. In Provo, they see hundreds of missionaries receiving their training.
