Hey there dude,
Good to hear from you. First of all, congrats on that stellar GMAT! That, with your fantastic GPA, will be a nice one-two to get you in, even if your school isn't an ivy
...Overall, I think you can apply to Top 10 schools, even if your extra currics are weak. One good thing is that as a Korean you have that Army experience, and you can lean heavy on that for stories to build some diversity in your profile, beyond your insurance experience. I mean that, plus squeeze the most out of racquetball and church and you should be fine.
Where should you apply? Well, any of the Top schools are always good. With your experience, a risk management specialization is nice, but I'm not sure it's necessary... what you need is the time off and the prestige of a good program. Given your goals however, I would also look into INSEAD. If you know you want to work in Asia, esp. Singapore, it can be a very good option. Plus (I don't know if you care) since you finish in one year, it's muuuuuch cheaper (oh yeah, and the dollar going up won't hurt none either)...

Let me know if you have any other comments or questions,
Best,
