The hardest tier: places small enough that even many locals would need a map. This is where the best players separate themselves from everyone else.

In South Korea this set is spread across 13 different provinces, with Jeollanam-do home to the most of them (14).

How this category is defined

Place kinds on GuessTheDot are a practical grouping by population and place type for gameplay, not a legal or historical designation. A place can hold official city rights (or an old city charter) and still show up here as a village if it stayed small, and the other way around: this is a rough size ladder for guessing, not a statement about a place's official status.
