I am not yet in Korea, but I have noticed that Google maps does not have South Korean maps in its system.

Is there a free online mapping service similar to Google maps in Korea?

Mapquest.com will show SK. I didn't know how to enter address so I just zoomed all the way out, drag the map until it showed SK, then zoomed back in.

Mapquest maps are way out of date.

maps.naver.com

It's all in korean, but then the addresses are in Korean too so it doesn't make much difference, right?

I use the map function on Daum. You need to know how to read and type Korean to get it to work.

99% of other Korean websites don't work on anything but IE. Whats your point?
