korean format
Addresses written in the South Korean format, incorporating a numeric house number in combination with text locators.
The Korean format of address inscription refers to the syntax used to specify addresses in South Korea. It includes a numeric beonji-ho (house number) in combination with a ward name and neighborhood name. As in the Japanese format, the order is generally reversed when switching between the native script (Korean) and Roman script.
In Korean script, the order is:
ward-neighborhood-house number
In Roman script, the order is:
house number-neighborhood-ward
