Don't worry, most of the restaurants they can speak mandarin. Some even basic English. Like what Stimix said, their subways and directions/maps are written in english and chinese also. Do remember to take your hotel card just in case you need to travel back to the hotel by cab. It'll be easier. And if happens that you've met non chinese/english speakers, just learn some basic korean words, hi, bye, pork, chicken, thanks, beef, fish, vege

As for the package, i think its a bit tiring considering you have to change hotel and travel quite far. Mt. Sorak is quite far from the city. Everland you'd probably spend at least half a day there already. Day 4 a lot of shopping at their "compulsory" outlets which is wasting time. 1 hour in Myeongdong is definitely not enough! I personally don't like to walk around Dongdaemun, so to my friends as well. very crowded and not nice to shop. Just like Sg. Wang. I still think you should go free and easy to enjoy the flexibility and adventure around the city by your own. That way you have more freedom and also maximize your holiday value and experience (see more things, eat their local food which tour does not provide, travel around their suburb areas and meet more people).
RM 2,400.00 for me. My gf spent more than that because she shops. Only is Seoul city itself

I stayed in Namsan Guesthouse 3, recommended

Book in advance so you can get a cheaper rate. Mine was around RM 155.00 per night for two person. Average about RM 20-40 per meal per person, depending what you eat though. A normal sandwich or toast sandwich for our breakfast already cost us RM16-18 per person

. Go there don't save on food ler, eat only. Try whatever that they can offer. Money can find later

I spent all on their food, especially streets food, barbeque and etc. Shopping, mehh...expensive and not necessary (if you're a girl different lah, they will spend on cosmetics). Enjoy food and sight seeing more value
Yeah, of all countries i've been to also no prob but Korea seems to be a bit different i don't know why also. I could be wrong but as what we experience is that we need 3G network then it'll be fine.
ic. thx alot.. so if going to Jeju the price will be more expensive due to haf to sit domestic flight.
in ur opinion, do u think Lotte World n Everland is worth to pay a visit? it's like those Disneyland or jz normal amusement park? better 2 go on spring or autumn season? really in dilemma
oh yea ur Namsan Guesthouse 3 is nt same as Namsan 1 & 2? gt any different? sorry if i'm asking too much cz i wanna plan properly b4 going.. dun wanna end up a mess later
