South Korea Provinces Quiz — Rules & What Counts
South Korea has 9 provinces and 8 cities with province status, including Seoul — 17 areas in total. This quiz shows a blank map. You type the name of each area, and the map colors that area in place.
How to play
Type names in any order. A correct name colors the area on the map at once.
You can start to type right away. You do not need to click the answer box first.
English and Korean forms both count. "North Jeolla", "Jeollabuk-do" and "Jeonbuk" score the same province.
Older spellings count too. "Pusan" scores Busan.
A timer tracks your run. The quiz saves your best score and best time.
If you are stuck, use the give up button. The map then shows the areas you missed.
What counts in this quiz
The 9 provinces, the 6 metropolitan cities, Seoul and Sejong.
What's not included — and why
North Korea is not on the map. This quiz covers South Korea only.
Good to know
About half of all South Koreans live in Seoul, Incheon and the surrounding Gyeonggi Province.
Sejong is the newest area. It became a special administrative city in 2012.
Jeju is a volcanic island province. Its peak, Hallasan, is the highest point in South Korea.
Gyeonggi surrounds Seoul, but the capital is not part of it.
