This review is from: Facts About Korea (Paperback)

I have been asked to introduce my country, Korea to a team of young professionals who will be sent to South Korea by a local Rotary Club. Preparing the presentation I found this small book. This book is pocket-sized, but has complete and up-to-date information about geography, history, culture, economy, tourism, and other aspects of Korea with a full of color photos and illustrations. If you are planning to travel to Korea, or just enjoy learning other countries, this book should be a part of your collection.
