Seoul, the capital of Korea, is the hub of all these changes.  
It has become a technologically savvy city, blending both modern and traditional lifestyles.

Korea is very popular among foreign tourists.  It has held major events in the past such as: the Asian Games, the 1993 Taejon EXPO, "Visit Korea Year" in 1994, the celebration of the 600th Anniversary of Seoul becoming the capital of Korea, the Kwanju Biennale, the 1999 EXPO in Kwangwon Province, and most importantly the 1988 Olympics.

Soon, Korea is set to hold the Asian Games in Pusan and co-host the 2002 World Cup with Japan. This is the first sporting event ever to be hosted by two countries simultaneously. This joint effort between Korea and Japan brings hope, peace and prosperity to all.
