SOUTH KOREA – IN THE LAND OF MORNING CALM

Pop music, K-Drama, and Webtoons: South Korea is a country full of facets. The Republic is located in East Asia, where it occupies the southern part of the Korean Peninsula. With approximately 52 million inhabitants, South Korea is one of the 30 most populous countries in the world. About half of the population lives in the area around the capital Seoul – a global metropolis with the world’s fourth-largest economy. The development of South Korea could hardly be more impressive: Since the 1960s, the Republic has evolved from a poor agrarian state into a modern industrial state, a so-called Tiger state. South Korean industry has achieved a dominant position in countless sectors in a very short time. As a result, the importance of the country continues to grow – a fact reflected in the so-called Korean Wave, which has swept into Europe in recent years. But South Korea has even more to offer: As one of the most mountainous regions in the world, the Republic is scenically very attractive. Hills and mountains stretch along the entire east coast. People in search of unparalleled cultural highlights and numerous attractions are in the right place here.
