National highways of South Korea

South Korea has a nationwide system of national highways (Korean국도; Hanja國道; RRGukdo), officially called as General national highways (Korean일반국도; Hanja一般國道; RRIlbangukdo), distinct from the expressways. The Ministry of Land, Transport and Maritime Affairs and other government agencies administer the national highways.
