Effective August 21st, we will be mapping IP addresses to
[Districts (Gu) of Seoul](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_districts_of_Seoul)
instead of Seoul. This will allow customers to have a more precise mapping,
similar to how we map IPs to New York City and London boroughs, and Tokyo's
special wards. We will continue to map some IPs to Seoul if we are unable to
determine the specific district the IP is located in. We will also continue to
map IPs located in the central Jung District to Seoul, similar to how we map IPs
in Manhattan to New York and IPs in Chūō to Tokyo.
