South Korea is located in Eastern Asia, bordering the Sea of Japan and the Yellow Sea, on the southern half of the Korean Peninsula. It covers an area slightly larger than Indiana. The climate there is temperate with heavier rainfall in the summer than the winter. The terrain is mostly hilly and mountainous with wide coastal plains in the west and south. Natural resources include coal, tungsten, graphite, molybdenum, lead and hydropower.

The South Korea economy was so strong in the 1980's and the early 1990's that many people thought that South Korea would be the next Japan of Asia. (The standard of living increased phenomenally.) But the 1997-98 slowdown has modified those predictions. Manufacturing accounts for 30% of the GDP. Economic success has slowed the rate of outward migration and even brought some Koreans back home.

South Korea has around 22,877,000 Telephone lines and 29,220 Internet users
