Yeah it's weird. A lot of countries try to interfere with global mapping anyway. Like China which has its entire country at an offset by using a slighly offset datum standard.

It's called the China GPS Shift. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Restrictions_on_geographic_dat...

And there's an unofficial implementation of a mapping function https://github.com/googollee/eviltransform

Facts like this make me realize how peculiar things you have a general idea about are. Thanks for sharing, I learned something new today.

When you consider SK's neighbors, and their neighbors' ambitions, it really isn't at all.
