"The government prays for the victims and expresses deep condolences and consolation for the bereaved families and British people," it said.

South Korea regards highly Prime Minister Theresa May's determination never to give in to terror and will actively join the international community's fight against terrorism, the statement said.

At least four people were killed, with dozens others injured in the attack when the suspect drove a car into pedestrians and stabbed a police officer.

Those who were injured included five South Korean tourists, with one of them sustaining serious injuries to her head. (Yonhap)
