Beyond Seoul: The Natural Wonders of South Korea

2 × 45' (ENG, GER)

South Korea, although still unfamiliar to many, is a land of almost inconceivable richness: spectacular landscapes, remarkable animal life, vast mountains and rugged valleys.

To this day, South Korea is closely linked to its tradition. The people live in harmony with nature and animals and do their utmost to protect them and live sustainably. With about 51.7 million inhabitants, South Korea is one of the 30 most populous countries, half of its inhabitants live in the metropolitan area of the capital Seoul. Yet, the metropolis plays a minor role in this two-parter.
We focus on the rural areas, escaping the city's chaos, and we fully embrace the beauty of the countryside, the coastal regions, and the islands situated in the southwest of the nation.
