22 Things About South Korea That You’ve Probably Never Heard About
When we think of South Korea, 3 things probably come to mind: makeup, TV shows, and food. But there is so much more to learn about the rich culture of this place. So many, that it always has a surprise up its sleeve that leaves us with our mouths open, wanting to take a direct flight there to live those experiences in person.
Bright Side found more photographic evidence of how peculiar it can be to live in this country.
1. 2D café
2. ’’Cat crossing signage in Seoul’’

don’t kick them away.’’

13. “Line 1, nothing to see here.”
14. Jeju Island’s heart-shaped oranges
