Hello everyone,

I've been living in Seoul for over a month now and I just started driving here. I find it really hard and stressful. I hate it but I have no other choice. Soon I will be driving to the airport and back- can someone explain more less how to get there and back. I just need the name of the highways I should stay on. Once I get there is it easy to navigate around the airport? What about on the way out? I have navi in my car but it sucks so I'ma bit stressed out. Thanks,
Anna

I will be spending 10 days in Seoul. I am thinking about getting a 3 day Korail pass. Would appreciate suggestions as to where to go for day train trips. The trips are more to enjoy the train ride. I would like to be able to travel a great distance, however would like to be able to return to Seoul in the evening.

I am looking to go and eat in myeondong, we have already eaten on mandu/dumpling place. However we rather eat on a different better place.Anybody knows?

I'm headed to Seoul (7/25-7/28) and was wondering if anyone else was going to be there. Would love to have some company looking around or eating/drinking.

I'm a Korean-American, 31 from San Francisco and I'll be there for a confrence.

Thanks!

I'm traveling to Seoul to visit with the curator of this museum which is under construction. Since their website is not online yet I wondered if anyone knew anything about this place or the Heyri cultural art village. Thanks.

Spending 7 days in Seoul. Any good same-day trip outside Seoul besides Panmunjon, the border town?

Hi All,

I will have a nine hour stopover in Seoul. I'll arrive at 8:50 AM and depart at 6:05 PM. I'll have my boarding pass and all so I guess I'll need to be back at the airport at 4:30 PM. So you think that I'll have a chance to see a bit of the city or is it not worth leaving the airport. Also, do Canadians need a visa to enter the country?

Thanks!

After a week in Seoul, I plan to go to Gyeongju and Andong for four days. The motel where I'm staying has no baggage storage facility. Can anyone tell me where in Seoul can I store my large suitcase? I will return to Seoul for one night before flying out.
Thanks

Which airport bus travels closest to the Best Western Premier Gangnam, 205 Nonhyun-Dong, Gangnam-Gu?

I've been told by a questionable source that one of the tours of the DMZ, has a stop at a train station in/near Panmunjom that among other things offers a tourist passport stamp representing DPRK with the dove of peace.

I've toured the DMZ and JSA during my tour of North Korea, and done the USO tour... So one of my friends and I were looking for something else. Any insight on which other tours offer this station? No other posts or tips give any definitive information. is it Dorasan Railway Station?

Can anyone advise me on the best way to get from Incheon Airport (ICN) to Camp Kim? How long does it take to travel between the two? If a taxi is the best way, what would the taxi fare be?

Thanks!

Can someone tell me how to find out about the
Little League baseball organizations in and around Seoul?

Thank you so much!

Sorry for the weird question...

I plan to buy bread from Tous Les Jour ('cuz I really love them, and our country doesn't have any Tous Les Jour or anything close to it) and bring it back to my country. Am I allowed to have the bread check-in with me at the airport? I'll just put it on my carry-on backpack

I was supposed to travel via Bangkok but was rerouted through Seoul. I had my heart set on buying a bunch of soccer uniforms (national team and club team imitations for kids) and know where to get them cheap in Bangkok as they produce them there. They are about $6-$10 dollars there and $50 or more in the US. Do they sell such things in Seoul? My kids are due for a size up...

Thanks!

Hi Everyone. I'm new to this forum. I've tried to search for an answer to my question, but without luck. I want to stop over in Seoul for 3-4 days on my way back from Singapore. Just wondering if there are any reputable tours that do 3-days of guided sight-seeing around Seoul including hotel and airport pickup/dropoff. I don't speak of a word of Korean and just want something "effortless" to participate in since I'll be alone for this leg of my trip. I really appreciate any feedback you might have.

I am trying to find out about the Black Cat restuarant in Seoul. I know is near Lotte world...but can't find it on the internet.

Anyone living in the area or visiting having info on it would be great.

I am assuming my spelling is correct...maybe it could be Black Kat or something sounding similar.

thank you
