Previous video from the north Korea border: • North Korea's Dangerou...
Today, I am leaving Seoul and travel to another place in Korea. The city where I am heading to is not a touristy town at all. There are only 2 hotels available on booking or agoda, but I am still very excited to go there. This is my first time taking a train in Korea and my first time to really leave the Seoul area. Join me on the journey in Korea's bullet train, which is the fastest of the country. Korean bullet trains are quite famous and are popular high-speed trains. But how good and comfortable is a ride with them? Let's find out!

You should REALLY start using a translator app.
You wouldve found the hotel entrance right away if you had used a translation app.
Sejong City is a new city, so there are not many Koreans, so the infrastructure is good and it will be good for foreigners moving there!
The other lift only goes 1F~3F because it is for the mall only. for 4F you need to use hotel lift.
This is like watching Germany losing to S.Korea in World Cup 😂😂😂
Fucks sake 🤣🤣🤣
Yes, it's a T- money card. With that you can use all de transports in Korea( metro and bus) and you can charge the card in the convenience stores and metro station. You have to pass de card when you enter de bus and also wen you left de bus
Korea city is very clean.韩国很美，很现代化
13:29 15:25 To the left of the elevator button, there is a Korean sign indicating that the restaurant is only open up to the 3rd floor. The entrance and elevator appear to have been used only on the restaurant floor. Because Sejong City is the administrative capital, not many foreign tourists visit, so it may not be fun for tourists. Still, it's a well-planned, clean, and quiet city, so I hope you'll have a new adventure.
상업구역 사람이 쓰는 엘리베이터를 타셨군요 거기는 3층까지만 작동합니다 ㅎㅎ
구매한 카드는 보증금이있는 1회용 카드가아닌 충전용 카드라서 편의점 지하철역 어디서든 필요한만큼 충전 해서 사용할수있다

@@top_green 오송맞지요 조치원도 아니고 서울역에서 ktx가는 데는 오송이죠
Guten tag. Herr ken.
The first elevator you saw had a sign indicating a private entrance to the hotel, but it was in Korean so you couldn't recognize it.
There were directions everywhere, but they were all in Korean so I guess you didn't recognize them. In my opinion it is clearly a lack of consideration from the hotel.
In Korea, since the 2000s, mixed residential and commercial buildings in one building have become popular.
In these complex buildings, the separation of residential and commercial areas was considered very important, and architectural elements such as separate entrances and restricted movement between each other were added.
It is very likely that this is the reason why you cannot go upwards from the commercial area on the 3rd floor.
9:00 / The bus card you purchased cost 4,000 won. Perhaps you paid 10,000 won at a convenience store, and the clerk was charged 6,000 won put in you card. After then you paid 2,000 won for bus.
Also, please check if there is a purple mark called [T-money] on the card. If it has the mark, the card can be used on public transportation nationwide.
You can charge mileage to the card at a convenience store and use it. In most taxis equipped with a payment module (even machines like the subway vending machine that refused you on the first day), you can pay by tagging your card.
I really enjoy your travel videos.
If you are staying in Korea for an extended period of time and exploring the normal areas of life rather than big cities or tourist destinations, communication will often be an issue.
If you have time, I recommend learning [Hangul]. Even if you don't know the meaning of a word, just a few hours are enough to simply memorize and learn the alphabet.
These days, Korean often uses pronunciation of foreign languages directliy. If you could read the word [호텔(hotel)], you would have been able to find the hotel lobby more easily.
I will continue to follow your journey. ^^b
Thank you 😊

13:40 Sorry you couldn't find the entrance but the sign on the 1st floor just before you took the elevator that only went up to the 3rd floor, showed a map of where you were, and where the hotel entrance was. It was showing you how to get to the hotel entrance. It is not a touristy city so you shouldn't expect English signs. Next time recommend using google photo translator to see Korean signs in English. Really enjoy watching your videos and I hope you have a wonderful time in Korea😊
this is my favorite part, to figure out the new thing. as a subscriber who have never been to South Korea this is really informative and add my insight of what is south korea looks like 🤗
Korea city is very clean.
korea is sh*t，It cant make online payments in such a small country
Like paris
파리 존나드럽던데@@abdurrozzaq5807
lol
India is the only shit in Asia
Wow interesting, this planned city. Cannot wait for the next video. Be well.
Sejong video will be out next Friday ✌️
This isn’t actually the fastest train in Korea, there’s a newer generation of the KTX which was made to replace the oldest generation of KTX, and it can go faster. It’s like the ICE 3 neo replacing the ICE 1.
Exploring Korea's unique cities is a true meaning and brave choice to travel. I enjoyed watching it. Finding the wrong entrance to the hotel was a ghostly fun feeling and a fun happening. I look forward to the next fun video. Thank you.
Thanks for watching 🙏

Sejong is only filled with government complex. How funny foreign tourist visits there 😁

@@KenAbroad 맞아요! 그게 바로 즉흥여행의 묘미지요~~
Hi and good evening, Ken and all. Am joining you for the journey.....wow, how excited l am to experience Korea bullet train virtually 😂😃
Great video! I have learned more about Korea
As a Korean, I have never seen a foreigner who goes to Sejong for sightseeing. Actually, I've never even seen a Korean doing that either.
약간 덜렁대는 스타일이 귀여움 ㆍ즐거운 여행되세요
여행은 켄과함께 ~~ 다른 관광객들이 안가는 도시 찾아다니는 켄 !!~
Koreans should be his riders
Btw, you should try the motels/love hotels if you wanna save money. They are everywhere and less than half of what u are paying.
Still clean and well equipped.
13:40 In Korean the sign reads: "This elevator is only for the shopping mall. It is convenient for guests to the hotel (front desk, restaurant) to use the hotel entrance."
This will explain the absence of the 4th floor on that elevator.
you got it, high attention
Then it should be in english as well no!
@@lahiru4307 While even a very brief translation as simple as "not hotel elevator" can help, to be fair it shouldn't be expected in a city that does not usually cater to foreign tourists. Sejong is inhabited by mostly domestic civil servants and serves as a de facto administrative capital.
답답해서 암 걸릴뻔😅😅
@@lahiru4307Should use google translator or something. There are lots of apps to help you travel these days. Do western country hotels have signage in Korean? I don't think so.
It is so interesting that tourists went to Sejong City. Foreigners who go to Sejong City will mostly be people to perform official duties related to the Korean government. Therefore, most of the hotels in Sejong City are only used by Koreans. If a foreigner uses it, a Korean will guide. Where you first wandered around was instructed on how to find the entrance to the hotel in Korean. And Sejong is the name of a Joseon Dynasty king drawn on your 10,000 won bill. It is called King Sejong. He is a favorite king of Koreans who made Hangul and achieved various scientific innovations. One more thing: Koreans do not travel to Sejong City either. You really seem like a unique traveler.
Actually a bit funny, at 17:57 the sign reads "Hotel lobby next to 7 Eleven". Maybe they want you to have another sandwich... (You can always find really nice and clean toilets at the stations). You should try to use the camera and Google Translate to read the signs.
세종시 가셨네요. 행정기관들이 모여있는 신도시라 깔끔하고 정돈된 곳입니다. 호텔 입구 찾느라 고생하셨네요. 😅
그래도 웃겼어
Wow. I've never seen a tourist going to sejong citi
13:40 표지판에 한글로
이곳은 상가 전용 엘리베이터 입니다
호텔로 방문하시는 고객께서는 호텔 전용 출입구를 이용하시면 편리합니다 라고 적혀있다
영어로도 좀 써놓지 ,,ㅎㅎ
평면도에는 호텔전용 출입구 와 현위치가 표시되어 있음 ㅋ
이번 기회에 좀 바꿨으면 좋겠네요 세종시 호텔이면 그래도 한국에 비지니스나 정부관련 문제로 방문해서 이용하는 분들 앞으로도 있을텐데..이미지상..
13:37 That post says 'This elevator is for shopping malls only. For the Hotel guests, use other elevator only for Hotel' in Korean.
어휴 답답해 죽을뻔😅😅
I would have called the hotel
엘리베이터 4층을 F로 표기돼 있어서 몰랐을듯 ㅋㅋ 어 4층이 없네? ㅋㅋ
18:20 She said you are cute!
nice vid. thank you so much.
Love your video's ❤❤❤ Ken 😊

It's indeed a very smooth bullet train journey. Glad that you managed to reach Sejong safe and sound. Yeah, l haven't heard of Sejong before so this'll be a great opportunity for me to tag along with you again. Oh gosh, how stressful it's to find the entrance to the hotel 😂 Anyway, thanks for the room tour. As always, l loved watching this video. Another fantastic time spent with great content maker "Ken" Thanks a bunch and cheers, Ken.
8:30 Among the types of transportation cards, there are cards issued at stations and can be used only for transportation, and there are cards issued at convenience stores that can be used as both transportation cards and prepaid cards. Cards with a T-money sticker sold at convenience stores can be used at T-money affiliated convenience stores, subway stations, street vendors, and T-money affiliated ATMs. - The charging limit is 1,000 won to 90,000 won per charge, and the maximum amount that can be charged to one card is 500,000 won.
Hi~ ^^ when will you go to Busan? If you go to Busan,,don't forget the mt. 황령산 for the beautiful panoramic views of Busan~good luck~😅😅
12:37 In Korea, there are people who cannot speak English at all or who are a bit shy and scared. ^^:
I'm sorry, but I also run away when foreigners ask.ㅜㅜ
When asking something, it's better to say "jeogiyo~, igseukyujeumi~ (Hey~, Excuse Me)" first. ^^
13:37 Floor plan gave you a clue.
impressed you visited Sejong. some say it's a boring city but hope it wasn't too bad.
More about sejong in the next video ✌️
WOW . Welcome Sejong. Very pleased and suprised to see u here, cuz I`m living in Sejong now and I visited that hotel in 2 July for business !!!! I hope u to have great time here😊
post more korea videos!! 😄
The train station is huge. Yr first class seat is nice n spacious. I was virtually looking for the entrance of the hotel. I got dizzy seeing u walking here n there, up n down just for the entrance of the hotel. The signage to the entrance is placed at a less conspicous position. Shall wait for the next video on this town. 🙏🤔
Yes full video about sejong will be out next Friday ✌️
👍🙏@@KenAbroad
ㅋㅋ 한국에선 4층을 F층이라고 표기를 합니다 ㅋㅋ
You can get an app on your phone to show the train speed
😂good experience ❤
If you have food flu, go to any pharmacy and tell them your symptom and you can get generic medicine without prescription. Or buy 정로환 (jeong ro hwan). I take this medicine with me whenever i travel.
18:20 They're saying it's cute. (귀여워!)
Nah she said "you're welcome"

Nice vlog Ken.. lost in transit 😅 I thought you will not find the entrance 😂.. very interesting vlog this time. I like it ❤
Thanks for watching 🙏
in korea, you can push "F" for 4th floor.😂
The KTX train you took is the 3rd fastest train in Korea, and the fastest is the KTX Cheongryong train on the far right at 2:20 in the video.
Since the two trains were put into service 20 years apart, their interiors and exteriors are very different in design and condition. The train that was put into service later is in much better condition, so I recommend you take the KTX Cheongryong next time.
I am glad that you found the hotel, after the long search. I look forward to your next vlog.
한국에서는 엘리베이터에 대부분 4층이라 표시를 안하고 F층이라 표시를 합니다 ㅎㅎㅎ 참고 하세요
내가 세종시에살기시작한것이 벌써 10년

I enjoyed watching your video and felt sorry for you when you couldn't get on the bus by paying cash at first and couldn't find the entrance to the hotel. The hotel should've put the signs in English as well. And Please don't expect all Koreans can communicate in English. When you want some information you need in foreign country, it would be better to ask in their own language. You always can use translate app, can't you? And I hope you weren't offended by the two young ladies' giggle when they showed the way to the hotel entrance. They felt a bit shy and they thought you were attractive. That's the reason why they giggled. So please feel complemented instead. I like your way of filming. very informative and down to earth.
Proceed toward the the directionr(arrow) for the hotel.
What a confusing experience you had upon your arrival in this new township.Glad that you finally managed to locate the hotel.I agree with you that they should placed the signages in a more conspicuous spot.Definitely looking forward to this new introduction of the city to us.Enjoying your vlogs Ken.👍💕🇲🇾
Change the title to “Hotel lobby hunting in a newly planted city”😂😂
🤣
Good to see you experience new things. But most people would easily use google translate but you seem to like to walk around then video it as if it’s someone else’s fault. Using google translate would have made finding the lobby quicker.
lol the koreans signs and big poster showed how to get to the hotel lobby....oh well.
I want to take a "Train to Busan" 😀
could you not use the map app to find the entrance of the hotel ?
You can get thd exact location in Google Map
세종시에 오셨군요! 외국인이 관광 올 일이 거의 없는 도시라, 호텔입구 안내가 한국어로만 되어있나봐요 ㅠㅠ 안내가 잘 되어있었다면 좋았을텐데 아쉽네요. 즐거운 여행이 되길 바랍니다!
Sadly, you are not the first foreign tourist to visit there. I frequently visit the city. I've seen some Chinese tourists there. You should have been more careful by looking at the signage at 13:38. You were in bad body condition, that's why that happened.
Seoul Station is not that big because there's other terminal stations for different lines e.g. if you're traveling from south-west to Seoul, your train's last stop will be Yongsan - which is about 15 minute metro ride from Seoul. If you are traveling from south-east to Seoul, on the other hand, your train will NOT stop on Yongsan but it will stop at Seoul. Of course there's some exceptions here and there but that's the general rule, which was introduced to use the railroad within Seoul more efficiently.
Sejong city is a government department city, designed not to replace capital city but to relocate all the government agencies and organizations to this new city, most people go there are public workers and government officials. These hotels are mostly catered for government officials going to Sejong for few days for either attend meetings, seminars and training.
The beverage you drink in the morning helps relieve constipation, which is why your stomach feels uncomfortable.
Hi Ken, what site did you use to book the train ticket?

Hello great video
Can you please explain how you booked your train ticket? Txs

@@KenAbroad thank you. Did you print your ticket or you had to go to a ticket office in the train station?
Sorry Ken I couldn't help but laugh when you can't find floor 4 lol

U had failed if u are in military😂
We had trouble looking for our free shuttle bus today hahaha, from airport to international business centre/complex We had to transfer from one bus to another 2, :-D learning lessons from mistake :-). Thanks for sharing Ken.
한국에선 엘리베이터에 4층이라 표기를 안하고 대부분 F층이라 표기를 합니다 ㅋㅋㅋ

Using the translating app would have solved everything 😀 assuming what signs say is not ideal
I ❤Ur vids
Nice hotel.
Your mom is proud of you and enjoys watching your video
How do you know 🤔
Are you Ken’s mom
@@KenAbroad i got your mom's energy
The network speed in Korea is super fast.
I also stranded in a new city and it was really weird experience, because it was so empty. Dongtan 2 was the name or sth like that. It was near suwon. But I actually enjoyed it.
In Korea always buy their transportation card call T MONEY CARD, Come on Ken don't be a fool you should know it very well if you always on travel. T MONEY CARD can use for Metro and buses in Korea and will be cheaper than you paid for a single journey card. zzzz
13:40 The sign says "This is an elevator for the mall. Please proceed to the hotel entrance." They should write in English too.
The Papago app translates all languages.
Great sharing. Thanks Ken. 👍👍👍😍😍😍
The hotel reminds me of a Motel One, but slightly brighter (and cheaper)
역대 내가 봐왔던 여행 유튜버중 길을 제일 못찾음
a planned city is very interesting
Hahaha, actually, the signboard beside the elevator you first tried to ride, kindly shows the way to the hotel entrance.
Only problem is you could not read Korean language. But that shows the diagram how to reach the entrance. Anyway, if the hotel
wrote down 'hotel entrance' in English there , there might be no trouble. A kind of negligence, still.
아이구, 호텔 찾느라 고생 많이 하셨어요. 한국은 어디에서든 잘 모르겠으면 아는 사람 나타날 때까지 그 동네 사람 붙잡고 물어 보면 대부분 친절하게 잘 가르쳐 주십니다. 여기가 맞는지 확신이 안 서면 (아는 사람 나올 때까지 ^^ ) 계속 지나는 사람 붙잡고 물어 보세요 ^^
Most foreign TH-camrs visiting Korea make videos in Seoul, Busan, Jeju, Incheon, or Jeonju. Maybe you're the first one visiting Sejong for making TH-cam video as a foreign tourist. Enjoy your trip!
Yes, I didn't see another video from there yet 😁
No train station gates. Did anybody check your ticket?
서울에서 몇십 년을 살았는데, 이 영상을 보고 세종을 첨 보네요 ㅋㅋ
Love your video's ❤❤❤ken 😊😊
Poor Ken. Hes just trying to take a dump but cant find the hotel.
I don't understand Korean but
At 13:31 you can see the levels that the elevator service beside the buttons
13:39 the poster(?) has a map and it has a red dot, logically the red dot would mean "you are here" and the direction arrows should mean how to get to the hotel lobby
But tbf, this is after I have finished the video and had knowledge that that elevator was not the right one.
Anyways, I hope that you stay and explore longer in Korean, the people seems really nice!
Also, I saw a video by RealLifeLore th-cam.com/video/lmoZ_W4WjW0/w-d-xo.html a week ago that Koreans might be going extinct if the low birth rate persists but tbf I also wouldn't want to have kids if I were to be an average Korean. It's tough with long working hours when you can't afford so many things

Can you call the hotel lobby?
