The images were taken in Busan, South Korea in September.

Many thanks

Hi Jaqueline, I was waiting to see if some one else answered as I am not really sure. To me though it looks like an adult female Pieris napi - Green-veined White, which we have here in Northern Europe whether they are in Korea as well I don't know. But it may be the same family if its the wrong butterfly- "Pieridae"
I hope this helps
