Well, that's another big discussion about mailinglists vs. other means
of communication.
Some people for example prefer forums over email lists. There is no
"user: Korea" folder in the official osm forums
https://forum.openstreetmap.org/
I'm not a fan of forums myself* so I am not volunteering to be admin for
that, but maybe someone else here wants to ask for the creation of
"users: Korea" there?
*exept https://www.discourse.org that one I found pretty amazing
