10 Best Famous Buildings In Korea

When the Korean War raged, Korea and its people were left homeless without the most basic infrastructure including the schools, businesses, and hospitals, which had to be reconstructed from scratch. However, as the war ended, the U.S. government invested a significant amount of money to help industrialize and modernize Korea.

Despite the multiple economic setbacks and diplomatic problems, the last decade saw the government and private investors invest in better and sophisticated designs. As a result, the local and renowned foreign architects have also contributed to the progressive and inventive construction, which have led to the morphing of Korea’s landscape.

Spend Saturday Night Like A True Korean

From a young age, Koreans spend hours upon hours at school, at after school classes, in private tutoring, and at home doing homework. Once they enter the working world, it’s not uncommon to work 12 hour days, to go into the office on Sundays, or to take only a few days of vacation a year. Koreans work hard, to put it lightly.
