North vs South Korea: What Makes These Neighbors So Different?
Gridlocked and Ghostly Traffic
In North Korea, traffic jams are rare, with roads often empty due to the low number of privately owned vehicles. Strict control over car ownership and limited economic resources contribute to this scarcity. Meanwhile, Seoul, the bustling capital of South Korea, is frequently filled with cars, leading to regular traffic jams.
The city’s dense population, economic activity, and high car ownership rates cause this congestion. Interestingly, South Korea’s advanced public transportation system helps alleviate some of the traffic, but the vibrant urban life keeps the roads busy.
