South Korea

1. The country was judged to have the world’s fastest internet connection speed for the 12th consecutive quarter last year

2. This relatively small country (it is about the size of England) has seen its economy grow steadily since 2009 and currently has the 11th largest GDP in the world.

3. One of the unique facts about South Koreans is that when they are born, they’re automatically one year old. There are different schools of thought as to why this is. One explanation is that people think it’s because the baby is in the mother’s womb for 9 months, which is about 1 year.

4. "Gangnam Style" is a song by South Korean singer Psy

5. Korea is constantly ranked world-best in terms of education system and the knowledge of students (as studies such as the PISA and the World Top 20 Poll suggest).
