As I understand it, it has something to do with that google and apple won’t block out military facilities. At least that was a story a few years ago.

Because they won’t block key locations that are security risks. Just use Naver map, it’s just as good if not better.

While Naver has English features you still can type a locations English name and have it come up. Not to mention any other of the common world languages.

Hopefully North Korea doesn’t figure out how to access the internet from any other country than South Korea.
Bonus Stupid: You can’t use Google Translate for websites because Korea is worried sick you might use it as a proxy for pr0n.
Fortunately, you can still use a proxy that has no other utility than looking at pr0n.
And now that spies and pr0n mongers are managed, it’s time to get back to serious work refining ActiveX for Internet Explorer.

Why you need that? Is it because you can’t read and are illiterate?

The real question you should be asking yourself is if the Korean IT industry wants to service a handful of Koreans or build a high-profit global brand bringing money into the Korean economy by turning Korean brainpower directly into cash instead of sharing profit with the suppliers of raw materials like most other industries.
As a Korean, you spit on your own face.
Or you are a chinabot.

I read just fine…..if you want tourist types you want to make it more accessible.
If Pres Yoon (or any future president) really wanted to help the country, they’d get rid of those damn tollbooths. They’re a menace to traffic safety, traffic flow, not to mention commerce and even tourism.
The entry to them and the merge coming out of them (reduce from 10 lanes to 3 in maybe a hundred meters, all w/o merge lanes; just disappearing lane lines) are an obvious after-thought to whoever designed those roads.
But we need the money? Then figure out a way to collect it somewhere else: gas tax, road tax, vehicle registration fees, etc.
I believe those tollbooths are a remnant from the Chun Doo-hwan era whose time has come.

Texas and various spots on east coast use “toll tags” and license plate readers…
