Go where??Korea during winter?? Then why u ask?

LOL...
Genting Highland + I City....

If already go to there (Korea), i wont go again... Unless i had a lot of sweet / nice memory there... hehe...

Sweater where can tahan wan ..Adoi.. anything below 5C, you need Down jacket liao-lah.. Last mth I hero by just wearing fleece jacket to Hakone, Japan (Mt Fuji view) and forgotten it's on 1000M above sea level and temp suddenly drop to 2C in March..my whole body shivering like hell and even can feel it even I already entering Tokyo that nite..(~ 8C)..Teach me a lesson haha..

Genting is not winter. More like spring. I city is fake snow. Not the real winter.

No comment since i am not defending myself. furthermore, i already mention i cannot tahan snow... LOL

Not Genting-lah - Snowhouse inside Genting & I-City.. Temp controlled at MINUS 6C and real snow created by sprinking mist from blower haha..SO almost like winter feeling liao.. Spring time temp from 8C till 15C wan..This time no need down jacket.. yeah few T-shirt & Sweater will do haha

You are one really conflicting and confusing girl.. One min u said you been to Korea wth 3 layer t-shirt & sweater that failed you and now you say you haven't been there and not even know what type of passport??

Only one type of passport to anywhere in the world - That's is International Passport

Quick explanation.

1. I havent go to Korea, and planning to go there by end of this year.

2. I said, wearing two bla bla t - shirt + sweater, it happened when i am going to Genting Highland + I City...

haha...

I thought u said:

"Unker, go already"??

Anyway, you really need to prepare for winter for sure.. there is a good thread on what to wear during winter. My wife also kenot stand cold winter and not even in an aircon wth 25C temperature!! But she can withstand winter coldness..How?

Just get yourselve with a good Down jacket wth atleat 90% down (Young goose feather).. Price >RM250 for sure.
Also get long john or more classy get those Heat-tech legging & inner shirt from Uniglo (~RM39-RM70)..My wife used this.. very effective even at minus 15C. Get a gool wool scalf/buff to cover your neck mouth & ear and a leather glove (~ RM80) (Do not buy those cheap RM19 polyster glove - useless wan).

If you just wear many layers of tees & sweater.. you better go during spring or Autumn wth mild temp.

BTW, any country also need Int Passport get 1 for sure.. - RM100 for 2 yrs & RM300 for 5 yrs.. You are goo dto go there liao.. No need VISA

unker stimix.. 4 ur experience, go seoul + jeju.. which season better? during spring or autumn?

Sorry, I have only been to Seoul. No idea on Jeju.. I just saw Jeju from the sky nia Anyway, really depening on your preferences.
Winter if you wan to experience cold freezing temperature and testing the capability of yoir winter clothing. Snowing & white background esp inland Korea.

Spring - For flower lovers haha and mild cool temperature..(Can be cold sometime)...Not sure whether Seoul got Sakura flower or not.. 1st time seeing Sakura flower last mth in Tokyo..really nice feeling for sure .. You still can see snow sometime during this season

Autumn..Leaves falling, everything turned yellow & red.. given another diff perpective.. Also cool temperarure and late night & Morning can be cold too.

Just choose diff timing going there lor.. haha.. see the diff.. Well I choose Seoul for winter, Beijing for Autumn & Tokyo for spring.. haha.. Enough of the 4 season experience... No way I gonna go North during Summer as I having bad Summer experience in Hanoi b4- 40C!!

of cz i won't choose Winter. my partner n i r afraid of cold Spring n Autumn is our choice. some places different season gt different season festival or performances or activities or sales, etc.. tis i'm nt so sure.. about the flight the hotel/bb inn price? may differ.. tat's y wanna confirm n survey first lo

Should not only concentrate on Autumn & Spring.. SHould also experience winter too.. My future - Wanna try winter below minus 20C!! haha

BTW, again, wth proper winter clothing, whatever temperature also can wan inc minus 30C but those minus 20C probably must be better than Down jacket liao haha

yea i kno.. n i neva try b4 autumn n spring ma.. plus on budget ma. if go on winter haf to buy those jackets.. nt cheap. so if gt budget nxt time can go winter bt nt seoul lo.. lolz

the coldest i experience in korea was -5deg. somemore 1st time experience winter. only got a down jacket cover my body. my ear almost frozen. when i touch it, its so numb that i cant feel my ear at all.

Spring weather surprisingly was cold during morning/night (6PM til around noon), but afternoons are hot! I didn't even wear a jacket

Seoul got Sakura, but probably not as many as Japan. Saw them at two places - Yeoinaru/Yeoido (along the river) and Jamsil (around Lotte World). Very beautiful sight!

They also have some Sakura festival going on near Yeoinaru/Yeoido. The place is jam packed with people last Sunday so avoid going during weekend if you can.

Glad to hear that. I am leaving for Seoul tmrw evening.

Hmm, might be a bit over packed for this trip then. Might need to take out the thicker jacket.

Haha, listiani - I am leaving tomorrow morning =D

I bring 1 jacket from here and will buy one in Korea if needed. a trenchcoat perhaps.

I am leaving tonite and arrive Seoul tmrw morning. Early Sunday morning going to Jeju for 02 nites. Return to Seoul again on 24/4. Where are you staying in Seoul? I'll stay in Namsan Guesthouse
