Your Land and My Land Asia: South Korea

While there are many words to describe South Korea, the best one is "dynamic." In just six decades, South Korea has emerged from the chaos of war into one of the most modern nations in the world. With its "quick quick" attitude, it is constantly moving, changing, and growing. South Korea has an expanding economy, the fastest internet speed on the planet, and a reputation as the "most wired" country on Earth. It not only bustles with seemingly endless energy, but also boasts of long stretches of coastline, rolling evergreen hills, extinct volcanoes with crater lakes, and more than 3,000 islands. Find out how South Korea's culture, traditions, language, music, and cuisine are sweeping over the world in its dynamic K-wave.
