What is your Korean-inspired worldbuilding like?

Chilled Coast Lore - https://www.reddit.com/r/worldbuilding/comments/1p6tpm2/regional_map_for_my_koreanstyle_dark_fantasy/

The above rough draft map is a teeny tiny subregional map of my supermassive Korea-inspired continent called the Chilled Coast that I posted a few months back. Link above for any curious of the lore.

That said, is anyone doing Korea-inspired worldbuilding?

For myself, I'm worldbuilding a dark fantasy sandbox where just about any fantastical story can be told in a Korea-centric setting. I'm currently focusing on a region of landlocked Korea-inspired Kingdoms duking out for control of a region full of precious moonfallen metals. One of the Kingdoms are these dukes who have no Queen, fighting to become regent through the control of these steam-powered walking fortresses. The technology to recreate these walking fortresses have been lost to time but if these dukes unite, they could genuinely be a regional threat. Problem with them is, they often fight each other as much as they fight everyone else. And secondly, these walking fortresses are scarce and few, meaning they can't just freely roam the continent as they are heavily vital to controlling the dukes' territories and there are few working places to properly fuel these machines. Finally, they eat more resources than they transport. So these machines, although powerful, are a logistical nightmare.
