All the explanations for why Google Maps sucks in South Korea say that South Korea won’t share good map data with Google unless the company agrees to the government’s conditions. Is there something preventing Google from creating its own map of South Korea? In China, for example, I think the reason is that you need an official permit to create maps, and Google would risk getting fully banned there if it tried making its own maps. I haven’t managed to find any similar explanation for South Korea, though.
