Be careful when choosing flights and accommodation, don't get overwhelmed by the options! 3. Maps and navigation: In Seoul, Baidu Maps and Apple Maps are both reliable.

You might even make Korean friends! If it doesn't work, use translation software, but don't expect it to be completely accurate. Sometimes it will give you some funny translations, which will make you laugh and cry! 2. Cultural etiquette: It is important to understand Korean cultural etiquette, otherwise you may make a joke inadvertently. For example, in South Korea, don't make a loud noise while eating, otherwise it will be considered very impolite! 3. Safety awareness: Safety first when you go out. Always pay attention to personal and property safety, especially in crowded places. Take care of your bag and don't give thieves a chance! In short, South Korea is a charming country. Even if you don't speak Korean, you can spend an unforgettable May Day holiday in South Korea on your first trip abroad. I hope this guide can help you. I wish you a pleasant journey and have fun!

#100TravelStyles #Dongdaemun When I went to Dongdaemun, I wanted to eat samgyeopsal so I went with a friend🌼 Surprisingly, there aren't many samgyeopsal restaurants near Dongdaemun Station that I was interested in, and I went here because there were a lot of reviews on Naver💚 It seems to be a famous restaurant among Japanese people, so many people may know about it! ? There was a waiting list even on a weekday night, so I waited about 15 minutes!

We also have it with kinako and salt♡ For the finale, we had cold noodles or crab soup I was looking forward to the bokkeum pub, so I was a little shocked that it wasn't there, but crab soup is rare, so I should have ordered it🦀 I'm curious about it now😂lol It's close to Dongdaemun station, so if you're staying nearby, if you're hanging out in Dongdaemun and want to eat samgyeopsal!

풍NEW at Dongdaemun History & Culture Park Station 🇰🇷 It's only just opened, but it's a popular place for Korean alcohol lovers 🍶 The counter seats with running water are popular, so I went there at 12:00 when it opened. When I arrived 5 minutes before, there were already a few people waiting. Everyone was taking this video as strawberry makgeolli came as an appetizer! I went there for lunch, but they only had bottled alcohol, so I had yuzu wine ♡ The pasta and avocado yukhoe bibimbap here were delicious 😋 There was a different menu for dinner, and I wanted to eat that yukhoe, but unfortunately it wasn't available for lunch 😢 The road to the restaurant was quite complicated and I got a little lost. I recommend going there with plenty of time ♪ #koreagirlstrip #girlstrip #koreatrip #korea #seoul #seoultrip #dongdaemun #gourmet #koreagourmet #koreainfo

My daughter finished her high school entrance exam this year, and I promised to fulfill one of her wishes. She wanted to go to South Korea to see her favorite girl group, Babymonster, in concert. She used her New Year's money to book the concert tickets online. At fifteen, she dragged her fifty-year-old parents along, and we embarked on our trip to South Korea. In the spirit of being parents who don't spoil the fun, all the travel plans were made by our daughter. Apart from the concert, she decided to go with the flow and firmly refused to join any tour groups. Thus began our five-day spontaneous trip. Unlike our previous well-planned trips, this one had a sense of adventure and the unknown, which was quite enjoyable. Our itinerary was from the 8th to the 16th: 11th: Fly from Shanghai to Seoul, attend the concert at Kyung Hee University in the afternoon. 12th: Visit Korea Village and Myeongdong; stroll around Dongdaemun in the evening. 13th: Take the THX to Busan, check in at Haeundae. 14th: Sleep in, take a small train to Cheongsapo and Songdo. 15th: Ride the marine cable car, visit Gamcheon Culture Village, and explore the Can Market in the evening. 16th: Return to Shanghai. Let's talk about our first day in Seoul. We stayed at a hotel near Dongdaemun Station, which made traveling very convenient. Following our daughter's lead, we chose public transportation and bought subway cards, relying mainly on the subway for getting around. We were amazed at how convenient it was to travel, thanks to Ctrip, Baidu, and Papago, which helped us overcome any language barriers. We arrived in Korea at noon, and my daughter's concert was at 4 PM. After checking into the hotel and settling her dad, my daughter and I set off for Kyung Hee University, known as the most beautiful university in Asia. Upon exiting the subway, we realized that the Peace Hall was quite far from the main campus. We were about to take a taxi when my daughter spotted a shuttle bus, so we hopped on. The driver was very kind and even called us back when we almost got off at the wrong stop. I was quite impressed when we arrived at the Peace Hall; it was a magnificent cathedral. We wandered around the hall before entering to watch the concert. There were many young people, and I, a middle-aged woman, stood out among them. Determined not to spoil the fun, I watched the entire performance. Babymonster's concert was very popular, and during the climax, everyone stood up, swaying and singing along to the music. I had to stand up too, but fortunately, I was recording the whole thing, so I didn't have to sway. I successfully completed my daughter's task of recording the entire concert. After the show, we followed Baidu Maps back to the subway station and returned to the hotel. We reunited with my husband and found a place to eat in an alley opposite the hotel. Unexpectedly, we had the best meal of the trip—Korean beef barbecue and cold noodles—and the owner turned out to be Chinese! A perfect day came to an end!

How grateful it is to meet a homestay owner in Korea who can communicate in Mandarin. After being dazzled by the hotels in Seoul, Korea, I finally chose this homestay🏠. ⚠️Really clean! Complete! Comfortable! Convenient!! ⭐ First of all, the homestay🏠 owner is Chinese. Being able to communicate via WeChat really saves me the trouble of switching apps for translation. Many small tips for staying will be explained to you in detail... ⚠️Especially the most important thing for Koreans: garbage sorting!!! The owner is really nice, you can ask anything you don't understand. ⭐ Secondly, the address is in Dongdaemun. 🚇Subway station: Dongdaemun History & Culture Park Station. This place has a direct bus from the 🛩️ airport to downstairs. It is also very convenient to go to Seoul Station , especially if you have a trip to Busan. Taking a taxi from here to Seoul Station to take the train🚆 is very convenient and cheap, and of course, there are duty-free shops nearby. The only duty-free shop that is still open after 8 pm, unlike other places in Korea. It is still very lively at night with many delicious foods. If you want to eat BHC fried chicken🍗, there is one downstairs. ⭐ Stayed in this twin room with my three sisters, averaging 100+ per night per person, with two 1.5m beds. (There are also single-bed rooms, but we chose the twin room for group chats, hehe.) The floor is said to be dust-free, which is not an exaggeration, and there is floor heating. The homestay's equipment is very complete. Maybe because the owner is Chinese? It feels just like home when you enter. People with allergies usually get allergic reactions from hotel and homestay bedding, but this time it was amazing, not at all. Everything was very clean, I even wanted to ask the owner what brand of laundry detergent they used. The most cost-effective homestay in Seoul. The convenient location is really a lifesaver for traveling in Korea.👍👍👍
