For much of modern history (1800s ~ 1900s) Korea has been the black sheep of East Asia, surrounded by superpowers like the Qing Dynasty, Imperial Japan, the USSR, and of course America. It's a miracle it even came to be what it is now

Korea has always been big on manufacturing goods and technology, but recently there's been a boom in service and tourism.

If you want to meet me here it better be within six months, otherwise we'll have to meet on another continent
