"Snap To Road" works in South Korea?

Question

I got two road nodes near Seoul, South Korea:

37.242548,127.061159

37.243652,127.061357

 

Here is my bingmap “Snap To Road” GET request:

https://dev.virtualearth.net/REST/v1/Routes/SnapToRoad?points=37.242548,127.061159;37.243652,127.061357&includeTruckSpeedLimit=true&IncludeSpeedLimit=true&speedUnit=MPH&travelMode=driving&key=mykey

 

Here is the Bingmap response:

The two road nodes do show up in interactive bing map.

 

I have tried a few other road nodes around Seoul, “Snap To Road” returned nothing.

 

Could you help me with this?

 

Thank you,

 

Gary
