    My Son moved from Scotland to teach English in South Korea in 2015 for one year, he loved the place so much, he has never come home.
    Now has a lovely Korean wife and last month gave me a beautiful Grandson.
    Visited them twice before covid-19 , visit number three is in the planning :)

      I was privileged to spend 4 months in Seoul as an exchange student. I have one week left and I'm already planning to go back. As Lisa and Josh said, Korea is a country to fall in love with. The people, food, culture, history, everything. I'd recommend everyone who has the financial resources and enough time on their hands to visit Seoul/Korea at least once in their lifetime, you won't regret it.

    absolutely love your Korea vlogs!
    People in Korea usually don't talk in subways (pre- or post- COVID) because they are considerate of the noise levels in small public places. Hence, you'll see a majority of them with earphones looking at their phones instead. It's a sort of cultural etiquette. It works out perfectly because there's great wifi even in subways so they can be preoccupied doing that.

      Not so sure about that. While crime rates are relatively low in Seoul everyone should always be careful especially if you're a woman. Please never go out drinking alone if you're a woman any where in the world including in Seoul. Even though Seoul is great place Korea still has big problem with Racism, sexism and xenophobia. Seoul is my home, so I love this city but no where is perfect and after all Seoul is a huge city of course it will have bad people in it too.

    2. koreans will be happy to help others. just ask them for anything with your smile (^^)

    for your reference, monsoon period starts from mid or late june for about 3~4 weeks. right after that, highly humid, blazing, exhausting summer comes in, and lasts about 4 or 5 weeks, 3 ~ 4 Typoons hit the peninsula from august to september.. and winter is quite harsh from late December to February. though It feels like that the Characteristics of the climate is not so distinctive these days, I think it is not so recommenable to travel to korea in mid summer and mid winter. especially during the typhoon season.

    The “walking along the stonewall walkaway of Deoksugung Palace and you as a couple will break up” story started from the fact that they used to have a courthouse for divorce rulings towards the end of the walkaway. So couples who walked along the wall to the courthouse were mostly those who were going through divorce or were about to 😉

    Thanks for sharing the videos. Just returned from Seoul after staying in Seoul for over 7 Days. Seoul is huge and there are many places to visit. Very nice place to visit. This summer is warm. The heat from the Sun is as fierce in Singapore where I come from. There is a lot of walking required hence best to carry some shades or an umbrella in which would be very helpful to prevent sun burn. I have a some library of photos to share too. :P

    Don't worry about the Duksugung Stoneway Walk any longer. There used to have a Divorce Court at the end of the walk and it was said that a couple was destined to break up to walk along the walk. It moved to South Seoul (Gangnam) years ago and No Worries. Enjoy the romantic and graceful sidewalk. It is beautiful.

      Suggest you buy your T card as soon as you get to the airport in Seoul. Go to the convenience store there and buy one. They are use to tourist and can help you if you need it. I’m glad I had it as soon as I got to the city as you use it constantly, Especially if you travel by taxi, bus or subway. Enjoy!

    Really Really Truely Weicome to my country Seoul , South Korea
    If you come to Seoul, Korea, you will be able to enjoy another much more beautiful night view right in front of your eyes than the usual view of Namsan and Lotte Tower. In particular, if you go up to Eungbongsan Mountain and Geumho Mountain in Hawangsimni-dong,
    Geumho-dong, just a few kilometers between Cheonggyecheon Stream and Seoul Forest Park, you can enjoy badminton (get off at shin-Geumho Station or take a taxi) and there are many beautiful and delicious foods. Also, if you walk slowly for about two hours
    from the place called Dulle-gil starting from Maebongsan Mountain in Geumho Mountain, you can reach Namsan Mountain This place is very close to Gwangjang Market Jungang Market. It is close to Seongsu Bridge, Hannam Bridge and Dongho Bridge on the Han River.
    Therefore, it is very close to Apgujeong Station on Gangnam Station. I hope you have a wonderful and beautiful trip to Seoul
    The
    two spectacular views of the Han River are located at the summit of Eungbongsan Mountain (81m high) and Maebongsan Mountain (95m high) in Seongdong-gu. What's even funnier is that the distance between the two is 3.1km by car and only 2.4km by foot
    blog.naver.com/koam0816/221325946668
    th-cam.com/channels/wcoBhnVg9YkS9Y8FfK_ddg.html
    ※ (All taxis take about the same distance and time as the basic fare, and everything below is on foot) From Myeong-dong => (Northeast direction) About 20 minutes from Gwangjang Market 1.5km, from Gwangjang Market => (Southeast direction) About 10 minutes to
    Dongdaemun ddp 900m, from there (east direction) about 10 minutes to Jungang Market (Sindang-dong, Sangwangsimni Station) 900m, Jungang Market => (east direction) about 20 minutes to Wangsimni Market 1.5km, Wangsimni Market => (Southwest direction) to Jibu
    Station About 30 minutes 2km, Maebongsan Park 30 minutes 1.7km, from Maebongsan Park (Southeast direction) to Seoul Forest Park 2.4km to Namsan Tower using 3. This road is the most beautiful 5km, (North direction) 3.4km to Cheonggyecheon Park, (West Direction)
    Only 1.3km and 25 minutes to Namsan Dulle-gil, Itaewon Haebangchon

    If you take a taxi, tell the driver,
    1.
    "Driver, please go to the octagonal pavilion observatory where you can see the Han River at the top of Eungbongsan (palgagjeong) Mountain in Eungbong-dong, Seongdong-gu "
    (This
    is Korean, but you can pronounce it in English)
