The Gyeonggi dialect (Korean: 경기 방언; RR: Gyeonggi bangeon) or Seoul dialect (서울 방언; Seoul bangeon) of the Korean language is the prestige dialect in South Korea, as well as the basis of the standardized form of the language in the country. It is mainly concentrated in the Seoul National Capital Area, which includes Seoul, Incheon, and Gyeonggi Province. It is also spoken in parts of North Korea, including in Kaesong, as well as among the Korean diaspora. More recently, Gyeonggi dialect has seen increased use in online contexts, in turn leading to the majority of young Koreans' use of the dialect, regardless of their regional affiliation. The prolific use of online communication channels is expected to lead to a wider adoption of Gyeonggi dialect, in lieu of distinct, regional dialects.
