When I fill out a form at an American website for the first time in order to have something physical shipped to me, and I have to select "South Korea" as my destination country, I normally have to be on the alert for where, in the long list of countries, South Korea might appear. For all I know, the list might show South Korea as:
Korea, Republic of
Korea, South
Republic of Korea
South Korea
—so South Korea's position on the list is affected by how people designate the country. Very annoying, but the experience teaches you not to give up hope as you're scrolling down that list of country names.
