Actually Korea is small because first of all, after its ancient empires of Goguryeo and Balhae fell, and so many attacks from the Chinese and Mongols, Korea became small and its last kingdom called Joseon was taken over by Japan during World War 2.
It is a miracle Korea still exists today. This is why so many people who study Korea's history are awed and amazed.
