Economy of Korea
The entire East Asian territory of Korea is divided in 2 regions which are North Korea and South Korea. The official language here is “Korean”. People here mainly follow the Confucian culture. There is also a small proportion of population following Taoism, Christianity, Buddhism and Shamanism. When a person wants to know about Korea few things that would keep highlighting in information sources are Taekwondo (national sport of Korea), Korean War which is an important landmark in Korea’s history and electronic brands like LG and Samsung. These things are worldwide famous and people know this East Asian territory for such eminent things. With the evolution of time and technology, the culture in North and South Korea is changing from one another. But the roots of their cultures remain the same. Whatever new culture they have adopted is the evolution of their basic culture. The people there are very polite, gentle and practical. But you will never find them smiling quite often! They always carry stern looks. Their most common food items include Kimchi, Soju which is a hard drink and rice in all their meals. The people there speak only in Korean. English is popular too. If you are visiting Korea for any purpose, it is necessary that you learn that their language so that you can communicate with the local people. You cannot communicate and do any further work it you do not know their local language. There are a number of online as well as offline classes for learning it. You may join one as per your convenience. These tutorials begin with the basics. They will educate you about Hangul initially. Hangul is the alphabetic system of the Korean language. There will

be tutorials on grammar and speech in the later stages. Or add related content to this report
If you don’t have much time for travelling and you have the ability of self-learning, you can take online tutorials for learning Korean language. Nowadays, there are excellent websites which provide tutorials through videos and interactive sessions like quizzes, online tests, etc. But if you can really take out time for joining coaching in your local area, that is always a great option. Offline Korean language learning classes facilitate professional teaching, regular practice and fast learning. One can also order for study materials like books for learning the language more efficiently. Their currency is “Won”. For the northern region, it is North Korean Won (NKW) and for the southern region it is South Korean Won (SKW). Both these regions have a developed economy. Korea has huge mineral wealth which includes coal, graphite, gold and iron ore majorly. These mineral resources are mainly concentrated in northern region and hence the economy of North Korea is mainly dependant on mineral wealth. The southern part is highly developed in electronics, shipbuilding, telecommunications, automobile industry and steel. Transportation is one of my most important factors responsible for the development of capital there. The government recreated all the transportation facilities which were destructed during the Korean War. This helped in excellent trade and industrialization. Also, tourism has a great contribution to the economy in Korea. Tourism is greater in the southern region. There’s a lot of revenue earned by the government there through the means of tourism.
