Arriving through KPO puts you in Pohang-Gyeongju, and Pohang-Gyeongju means steel industry, Silla tombs, temples, war history, and a joint military-civil runway. Skip the beige layover mentality: pay attention, behave like a guest, and leave enough room for the destination to dismantle whatever tidy plan survived baggage claim.
