Rationale / Abstract

Data Collection

In a country locked by sea and North Korea, train was virtually an impossible choice when travelling abroad. However, as the hopes for reunification of Korea grew, and numerous efforts to connect the TKR (Trans-Korean Railway) and the TAR (Trans-Asian Railway) have been conducted, we began to become interested in this new form of transportation. Bearing this change in mind, we decided to use statistics to determine which tourism package would be the [most popular] when this railway actually became constructed.
