Around the South Korea track
Gyeongbokgung Palace sits low in the scenery while Lotte World Tower rises above the city, with Namsan Tower on its hill. East Asian buildings line the streets, rice paddies fill the valleys between the hills, and cars, buses and yellow taxis are parked behind the fences. The banner reads 환영합니다, and the boards name Busan, Incheon, Jeju, Daegu, Gangwon and Yeongam.
