It is in the deep south of the country...population of about 300 000. It is a semi-major regioanl city in jeollado but certainly not the big smole.

I understand the foreigner community is quite tight-knit and good but it is a bit of a backwater yes

I lived in Suncheon for 6 years. It is a bit of a backwater but quite a nice place to live and work. Very little pollution, friendly people, and great food.

Currently, I'm living in Daejeon and, frankly speaking, I miss Suncheon. Though it is a backwater there is alot to do if you openminded and enjoy places off the beaten track.

I can't comment on the foreign community as I tended to avoid it as much as possible during my stay.
