Seoul, South ___ (5)

I believe the answer is:

korea

(Other definitions for korea that I've seen before include "Divided territory" , "Asian territory, two countries" , "Former Asian country" , "Eastern country" , "divided land" .)

I've seen this clue in the Universal, the USA Today and the Newsday.
