    If you are visiting for the Expo, I think 3 days are enough. I stayed in a couple hotels, but they were not really budget type places.

    I've never been to that Expo, so I cannot tell you. As for things around the area, consider Choongmin & Suckchun Temples or a ferry ride to some of the islands: "The Quiet Southern Coast" - Yosu by DSwede

    No need to fly. I know there are direct buses from Seoul to Pohang. From there, I do not believe there is a direct to Yeosu, but maybe there is. If not, you can connect in Busan or Daegu or Masan.

    Honestly, if you are not connecting internationally, I find that bus/train is a better domestic option than flying in Korea. The reason is that by the time you get to the airport early for check-in, security, etc. and include the travel time to/from the airport - the travel time will be about the same as a bus/train.

    I have found a few bus sites, but nothing in English that would help for you. Maybe you can search yourself for bus information. When you do, remember that: -Pohang is in the region of Gyeongsangbuk. -Yeosu is in the region of Jeollanam.
