Corea del Sur: La Fundación del Español Urgente (Fundéu BBVA), con el asesoramiento de la Real Academia Española, indica que Corea del Norte y Corea del Sur, no Norcorea y Surcorea, son los topónimos recomendados por el Diccionario panhispánico de dudas. [...] Además, según el Manual de estilo interinstitucional de la Unión Europea, en los documentos protocolarios lo apropiado es usar las formas República Popular Democrática de Corea para referirse a Corea del Norte, y República de Corea para referirse a Corea del Sur, pues son las denominaciones preferidas por sus respectivos Gobiernos. 5, record 1, Spanish, - Corea%20del%20Sur
