About this map of South Korea
South Korea is drawn here as 17 individually colorable provinces and metropolitan cities. By mapped area the largest is Gangwon (about 19,200 km², 20% of the country's mapped surface); the smallest is Gwangju at about 125 km². That is a 153-fold difference across the same map, so the small ones need a zoom before they are easy to hit. The mapped outline reaches from 33°N to 39°N and spans roughly 5° of longitude. Some provinces and metropolitan cities are drawn as more than one piece, which is why the map carries 25 outlines for 17 provinces and metropolitan cities.
