South Korea

"This is South Korea. My home sweet home. Sweet Daehan. I lived there, and it was very peaceful. Me, my family, and my friends, live there in the South Korean seaside village of Gyeongyeong. For so long, we were divided between the two Korean nations, the tyrannical north, and the lovable south."

--Su Ji-Hoon, Welcome to Gyeongyeong
