Croatia is best known among Koreans as an emerging tourist destination in Europe for its beautiful natural landscapes along the Adriatic Sea as well as cities with medieval charm. In 2019, almost half a million Koreans visited Croatia and enjoyed the rich historical and cultural heritage, natural beauty, as well as the hospitality of the local people and excellent food and wine, Croatian Ambassador to Korea Damir Kusen said during an interview with The Korea Times at the National Library of Korea (NLK) in southern Seoul, July 6.
