[edit] National Parks

From the article: "South Korea also has more than a dozen national parks." The country has exactly twenty. I've made the precise correction. --Bentonia School 16:15, 21 May 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Pukhan River?

From the article: "South Korean authorities feared that once completed, a sudden release of the dam's waters into the Pukhan River during north-south hostilities could flood Seoul and paralyze the capital region." What is the Pukhan River? This is supposed to say the Han River. There is no such river in South Korea named Pukhan (though there is a national park to the north of Seoul called Bukhansan National Park). I've made the correction. --Bentonia School 16:22, 21 May 2007 (UTC)

See Bukhan River; although of course the North Han is arguably just a branch of the Han. -- Visviva 02:43, 22 May 2007 (UTC)
