1. Peter is the boy whom I met in U.K.
2. Peter is the boy whom I met in the U.K.
====================
Which one is right? Is # 1 OK without 'the'?

"the U.K." is more acceptable. It's "The United Kingdom" of it's constituent parts, England, Wales, Scotland, and Northern Ireland.

Thank you for your help.
1. I want to travel to the United Kingdom.
2. I want to travel to United Kingdom.
3. I want to travel to the U.K.
4. I want to travel to U.K.

Which ones are grammatical? When we write an essay, do we have to put 'the' before 'U.K.' or 'United Kingdom'?
