South Korea is a unique and relatively unknown country that is becoming a global phenomenon thanks to K-pop, K-dramas, and popular dishes such as tteokbokki, bibimbap, and gimbap.

Thanks to a phenomenal infrastructure, mountainous landscapes and traditional villages are within easy reach, and thousands of beautiful islands are “just around the corner.”
