This is not a "South Korean" version, it's not even available in South Korea at all. This is a release for Helio powered by SK Telecom, which operates in the US, and is simply the same services, just targeted to Korean-Americans and/or immigrants. You would not be able to find this phone in Seoul, or anywhere in Korea.
The poster of this obviously didn't read the original link "Looks like it is indeed. This render of the Ocean 2 decked out with a black bezel was hiding in a Helio page intended for Korean-American customers, and it appears it might even be for sale already for that market. It might mean a trip to a Korea-town dealer or calling up a Helio CS rep and asking real nicely, but if you’re waiting for a slightly less vibrant Ocean 2, you might be able to get one now."
