A South Korean reported to have been missing for over two weeks while traveling in Paris was found alive and unharmed, ministry officials said Saturday.

The South Korean Embassy in France said they were able to identify the whereabouts of the missing 30-year-old male, identified only as Kim.

He is reportedly safe, the embassy said, though it did not provide further details as per the family's request.

Kim flew into France from India around April 17 but disappeared on April 19, a day after meeting an acquaintance in the 1st arrondissement of the city, according to the officials.

The embassy earlier said it recently reported the incident to the French police on behalf of Kim's family and provided them with the necessary consular assistance. (Yonhap)
