On 3rd August I got a postcard from South Korea.
The card shows a view of Busan. Busan is the second largest city in South Korea and a centre of economy, culture and education. Its port is the busiest in Korea and the sixth-busiest in the World and the surrounding economic zone is South Korea's largest industrial area. As Busan was one of the few areas in Korea that remained under the control of South Korea throughout the Korean War, for some time it served as a temporary capital of the Republic of Korea. Since 2014 is Busan part of the UNESCO Creative Cities Network as City of Film. Talking about films, you might know the movie Train to Busan or remember the Black Panther scenes set in this city.
I had swapped for this card in late 2020, but due to mail suspensions it was just sent out in late July 2021. Both South Korean Year of the Ox stamps (issued 01-12-2020) were used here and once again this is a very nice set.
Thank You very much Jina!
