It's not Korea. It's in china. The people's names are all chinese... In korea, people from the North can't just go to the south... China is really huge with totally different climates in the North and South, so the cold north might be Beijing and the south could be Shanghai or somewhere around Hong Kong ...I've only read the first chapter so far, not sure if they mention cities
Poor guys being forced to transfer like that XD
Also, is this in Korea ? That would explain the south and north reference
