Other than DMZ and Jejudo, the rest is all free and easy and self planned.

Sounds like you have a very nice leisurely schedule picked out. About Dongdaemun, it's been awhile since I have been over there, but many of the shops there are open 24/7. They used to be open from 10am to 5am for regular shoppers. That means they are just closing up when you land. As for other places you might check out, you seemed to have covered all the bases, but since you seem to be checking out the shopping areas and just waling around, you might also want to figure in some time to check out the Apkujung area (Seoul's Beverly Hills) and maybe the KOEX Mall in the Gangnam area.

oh okie i wil squeeze in the COEX mall... Thx!!!

Hi,

While you're in Seoul, I suggest you should stay or stop by this really nice place...I found this place online not too long ago and I will definitely stay at least a night or two...This place has some cultures of Korea which you're missing a lot from your itinerary...Korea has over 10,000 years, officially 5000 years of long cultures and philasophies that you'll be benefitting more than anything else from my country...

Hi,
Here are the things I did when I went to Seoul. Gyeongbukgung, Namdaemun (largest flea market) and Blue Palace are all downtown. For high-end shopping, try Myeongdong.

You could hang out with some tourists in Itaewon, that's tourist area.

Here is the hotel I stayed at http://members.virtualtourist.com/m/7f095/10267a/

You can include Suwon, a fortress, I believe it's reachable by the Korean subway.

Eat at Nolboo Restaurant too for that authentic Korean dining experience.

Enjoy!!

It's nice to eat dinner at Nolboo Restaurant for that authentic Korean dining experience.
