Has anybody got any info about decent cycling maps for Korea?

In Japan I found that the free ones from the tourist offices along with a bit of Google maps on my tablet were adequate. Does anyone know what Ithe freebies are like in Korea?

I have also found out that there are lots of new long distance cycle paths, about 1700 kms in all, stretching length and breadth. Guide books are listed here (2nd and 3rd rows) http://english.visitkorea.or.kr/enu/GK/GK_EN_2_7_4.jsp
and they are called ebooks. I can browse on line, but can't see any way of downloading. As I won't have internet on the go, I can have a number of pages on different browser windows, but a hard copy would be better. Does anyone know if they do a hard copy?

So many questions, so little time!!

I used the ITM S.Korea map but can't remember visiting tourist offices.

One tip for entering or leaving Seoul from the eastern side is to follow the bike path along the Han River. Also great for cross city travel too and if you're heading over to Incheon.

I used a locally bought map and even though it was in Korean it was easy enough to follow.
