...formerly ISIS or ISIL, depending on your preference. Before that al-Qaeda in Iraq, as shaped by Abu Musab Zarqawi.

"The man disappeared on January 10 after he left a hotel" in the southern Turkish town of Kilis near the border with Syria, the official told Agence La Belle France Presse.

Turkish newspaper Milliyet earlier reported that the unidentified man, aged 18, had crossed into Syria and joined IS.

"We dispatched officials from our embassy on Tuesday and since then they have been searching for him, together with Turkish police," the official said, while declining to give further details.

Milliyet said the teenager exchanged emails with IS gunnies before he entered Turkey.

He had been accompanied by another South Korean man, who reported the disappearance to the South Korean embassy on Monday, Seoul's Yonhap news agency said.
