Hi guys,
Just came back from Korea yesterday.
It was a fun experience.

i also back on 31 ....see u on the flight.


some tips to go to nami island
route to nami island ( the light blue line (gapyeong station) didnt show up at the metro route )

go to cheongyani line 1(blue) . ( out from exit 4 ) ,enter the cheongyani station beside lotte mart to change to songbo station (light blue line .) after that reach songbo , transfer to the chuncheon line , stop by at gapyeong station ,

reach gapyeong station , outside gt many taxi , take those white color or silver , dont take the black color 1 ,

rate ( around 2.5k-2.9k won per trip)


after first we plan to go from cheongyani station by the korail train , but today it is nt available , so we just use the subway ,

then go to nami island , rent a couple bicycle ,10k won per one hour , you can explore whole island in 2hr , my estimation based on my experience today , (walk take longer time )

i stay at sinchon( line 2 green) , roughly need 2hr and half to reach nami island . so make your estimation carefully .

just my 2cent

thanks for the reply. anyway, reduced it to around 6 days. Doing mostly slightly sightseeing n little shopping(souvenirs) at the end. Any recommended budget guest house/motels u might know of? hoping to spend little on accomodation cuz will be mostly out moving about.

There are lotsa budget hotels in Seoul. They call it innostel .Link is in 1st page. Ob avg those budget hotel rate is from 35Kwon to 50Kwon or from RM100 to RM180/nite. The one I stayed Nansam Park is clean but abit small wth nice bathroom. Or..lotsa channels ~ 100+ & few adult channels as well.. During nite time can hear activities nxt door wan...well..budget hotel- for sure got abit of this scene wan haha

Do I need a visa to go to Korea? Travel for about a week.

No Visa. Both South & North Korea..haha..Too bad we can't enetr North from South.
