In 2022, South Korea welcomed 16.4 million foreign tourists, recovering to 93.5% of pre-COVID-19 levels seen in 2019. While Asian visitors constitute the majority, the influx from non-Asian regions exceeded 100% recovery. Countries like Mexico (189.9%), Canada (123.8%), and Australia (141.1%) show significant growth due to increased interest in Hallyu (Korean Wave), traditional alliances, and strengthened post-pandemic relationships. Notably, Mexico leads with the highest recovery rate, reflecting a surge in Korea's global cultural influence.
