The Korean Postal Authority barcode is used in mail sorting for South Korea (the one that's not ruled by an insane dictator). It encodes an 6-digit postal code with a check digit added. Unlike some other postal barcodes, this is not a four-state system, but one with bars of identical height and width, but encoding numbers via their horizontal position.
