This publication provides travel distances to major destinations around Haenamguk. Accessing Haenamguk requires a travel pass that is delivered in the immigration office in Sejong, or one of the two branch offices in Haemasijang or in Myeongju port. Landing on any other part of the country without a travel pass will cost the travelers to be detained until proof that there is no intention of malfeasance can be found. Of course, such proof is never found, for it is never sought.

It is important to keep in mind that only the office in Sejong can deliver travel passes that span over several weeks. The branch offices only deliver travel passes for a few days, which really limits visitors to go anywhere within Chhilsandö. The only exception is for adventurers coming to serve at the Dongsangcheo Gundabae. They can get a pass for as long as their commitment to this military base doesn’t break, but they are under intense scrutiny, should they ask for a leave to travel.
