Hey @JasonSeo,

A way that you can fix this is first have a field for State or Province and one (1) for Country: Watsky_1-1637701988552.png

Check to make sure you have your Data Categories setup for each field (should see the globe like the screenshot above):

Before I've changed anything my map looks like this:

Next, add your Country to Location and Province to Location so that Country is above Province:

Now, we have a map that is filled for South Korea:

Click the hierarchy drill down: Watsky_4-1637702424930.png

The map will then show Gangwon in South Korea:
