Seoul residents awoke to a gleaming world of white this week, as record snowfall caused both disruption and delight across the South Korean capital.

Heavy snow blanketed streets and road in South Korea for a second day on Thursday, causing traffic disruption. In Yongin, a metropolitan city located about an hour away from the capital, Seoul, people wandered along snowy streets as they made their way to work while drivers were seen struggling to manoeuvre their vehicles along snow-covered roads.
