Tell some facts about South Korea ?

South Korea has the world’s fastest wireless speeds on the planet, with an average download speed 33.5 megabits per second, nearly three times the average speed of second-place Hong Kong.

In 2014, South Korean Christians put up a Christmas tree visible from the North Korean Border. North Korea responded by calling it a “tool for psychological warfare” and threatened to bomb it.

You may not have heard of it, but the 10-step Korean skin care routine is becoming one of the fastest adopted skincare routines worldwide. Whilst this may be as an indirect result of fans of the Korean culture around the world pretty much adopting anything and everything that is endorsed by their favourite Korean celebrities, it has started making a splash across countries like the U.S, with websites like sokoglam forging the way for citizens to easily access Korean skincare, and Australia, where Korean skincare stores are popping up all around the country.

With the backdrop of a war of words between North Korea and the US, 2016 saw a year-on-year fall of 4.1 million in overseas arrivals to South Korea – the first dip after years of growth.

Unfortunately, some South Koreans are indifferent to what happens to the DMZ. With soaring house pricing in Seoul, it’s a possibility that the area would be demolished to build more apartment complexes.

When North Korea sank a South Korean Warship in 2010, South Korea responded by blasting the hit K-Pop song “Hit your heart” across the border using large military loudspeakers.

The country also has an average upload speed of 17 megabits per second. One hundred percent of South Koreans have broadband access.

While the level of tension on the peninsula remains high, and the Foreign Office advises against trip to its northern neighbour, it maintains that South Korea is perfectly safe: “

Just when you thought there were enough Hallmark holidays, South Korea upped the ante and introduced “White Day”. White Day is essentially another Valentines Day, held a month later on March 14th.

In 1953, a North Korean fighter pilot defected to South Korea with his MiG-15 and was rewarded $100,000 from the United States.

South Koreans love Honey Butter Chips, which are potato chips flavored with honey and butter from France. Because shops run out of them so fast, raffles are held for a chance to buy a bag, and the chips can sell for up to US$100 a bag on eBay. McDonald’s even sold honey butter-flavored French fries in South Korea for a while.

Around 140,000 British nationals visit South Korea every year. Most visits are trouble-free.”

People who have been following the Hallyu wave for some time now will know what we mean when we say Korean celebrities always, and we mean always, seem to have soft glowy, dewy skin.

The interesting thing about this holiday is that Valentine’s Day is a day where the males receive chocolate from females, while girls receive sweets on White Day.

Cheating and creating cheats for online games is officially a crime in South Korea

For many people around the globe, Christmas is a time to return back to your hometown and spend time with family. New Years, on the other hand is typically a party environment spent with friends at a pub, club, or house party

In 2012, a prison in the South Korean city of Pohang became home to the world’s first robotic prison guards. The country also uses robots to guard the Demilitarized Zone (DMZ) between North and South Korea and as teachers

It’s incredible, considering the hours that they put into their work as celebrities, and the amount of make up they wear (even the males). Much of this can be contributed to their insane skincare routine, which we’ve outlined below for you to get better insight on how to get the type of skin most people dream of:

After 2 US officers were killed while trying to cut down a tree in the DMZ, South Korea and the US  sent 813 soldiers, 27 helicopters and nuclear-capable bombers to the DMZ to supervise the cutting down of the tree. North Korean soldiers watched in silence as the tree was cut down in 42 minutes

Korea is almost the opposite. Koreans spend their Christmas day with their significant other. It’s not that critical that they see their families on this day.

South Koreans love shopping, and the country has some of the biggest shopping malls in the world.

During negotiations for a truce between North and South Korea, both parties would try to bring a bigger national flag than the other to each meeting. This continued until a special meeting was called to address the size of the flags, as they could no longer fit in the room.

While New Year’s IS celebrated, it’s not a huge celebration. Lunar New Year is the biggest holiday of the year, and is celebrated in the first two months of the year (depending on the lunar calendar). Around this time, a large percentage of Koreans travel to their hometowns to visit family. If you’re planning to do any road trips around that time, make sure to factor in a few extra hours of road time!
