I'm on a 2 week vacation in rural South Korea AMA

I've been living in South Korea for 4 years, but in the city.

Therefore we decided to spent time in very rural areas which to be honest are kind of dying here in Korea. Many shops and tourist attractions are closed.

But it's amazing to be so close to nature.

They are closed because most young people moved to Seoul and very few people go on vacation to rural areas. The population here is very very old. First the young women move to Seoul for studies or WOR and soon the men follow because they need to find a partner. There is much more to it with the birthrates and so on.

My favorite food is Korean Beef BBQ. A second is Korean Fried Chicken, they make it very different and exceptional.

Yeah I've watched "South Korea is Over" by Kurzgesagt, it is sad. Hopefully it is not as bad as the video says and they will find a way out of this.
