I live in South Korea. My daughter found this bird in the playground outside my home.. seemingly unable to fly. Meaning well she brought it home.. sorry the picture quality is poor. No obvious RSPB type organisation here unfortunately.

Hard to tell from this view, but it looks like it might be a California Quail. That would not be native in Korea, but your bird might be one that has escaped from captivity.

Yes, a California Quail, female or young. As RKJ says, in Korea it will be an escape from a farm/zoo.
