Corrections
00:18 I received a few comments from Koreans about some bad choices that I would have made and I am really sorry if anything that I did could offend anyone. This wasn't the intent, please remember that I am a Canadian with the goal of sharing the passion about cyclotouring and seeing your wonderful country with wonderful people.
All the music is Korean except the first one which is composed by an American (Kevin McLeod). I thought this first song was ‘Asian style’ and I had no clue that it was specifically ‘Chinese style’ and that it could offend anyone. Therefore, I will be more careful about the selection of music for the upcoming videos.
00:55 South Korea is 70% mountainous, not 80%.
02:15 Another comment is about mentioning the ‘’Japan’s Sea’’ which is apparently called ‘’East Sea’’ by the Koreans. When composing the video, I simply used the toponym used by Google Maps without even thinking that there was a battle about the name of this sea. I will be careful about this suggestion in our future videos.
