Korean International Circuit

Korean International Circuit, Motorsport racing track in Yeongam County, South Korea.

The Korean International Circuit is a motorsport racing track in Yeongam County, South Korea, combining permanent sections with temporary street course elements. The facility includes grandstands, pit lanes, and technical areas built specifically for professional motor racing events.

Construction began in 2007 on reclaimed land near the coast, with full-scale work starting in April 2009. Heavy rain delayed the schedule, and the FIA inspection was pushed to 11 October 2010, eleven days before the first practice session. The inaugural Korean Grand Prix ran on 24 October 2010, and the circuit hosted the race until 2013, when it was dropped after four editions.

The circuit's layout traces the outline of the Korean peninsula. After the last Formula One race in 2013, it has hosted the Korean GT championship SUPERRACE CHAMPIONSHIP and other domestic events. The name Yeongam Circuit is used locally.

The circuit lies in Samho-eup, Yeongam County, near the port of Mokpo, about 320 km south of Seoul. The nearest airport is Muan International, whose scheduled link with Gimpo is suspended; Muan replaced Mokpo Airport for civil flights in 2007. From Busan, reached by high-speed ferry from Hakata, buses continue to the area. The pit lane entry sits on the racing line out of a 240 km/h corner, and the exit feeds toward Turn 1.

The layout was designed by Hermann Tilke, an engineer known worldwide for his racing track projects. The overall project cost reached approximately 264 million dollars.
