i did saw that.. but seems like there is only one time slot available? and need to reserve early.. my timing very hard to meet those times.. train is the safest bet i guess...

yeah shuttle bus only have 1 time slot and you have to follow. not flexible. but if you plan to go petite france and garden of morning calm you still need to take bus. (also got the time slot). if you want less hassle, than opt for taxi or take tour lor.

Hi,

I will go Jeju island on December this year. Since it is winter time, is it ok if self driving on that time? Mind share your experience?

Hi, sure. No worries on that. But if you are worry, you can also get a car that comes with snow chain (or smth like that). But I think you only need it if you are planning to go up to the mountains.

Of course. Been there, done that. No problem. Go for it!

haha..better than those normal one. at least u don get problem when people in front you lower their seat.

Would you guys recommend me to take up a trip with a tour agency or just to go there myself?

just go ur self. cheap cheap.

Is insadong still the go-to and cheapest place for souvenirs? or got anywhere else with better deals ?

you can try out samcheong-dong..=) me myself bought a few stuffs there

for me insadong too touristy but you can find lot of souvenirs there and also less hassle to crack your head thinking what to buy for souvenirs if you wanna find common souvenirs price wise.. depends on people la..

else those markets did sell souvenirs too.. not as many choices

Try buy online? XD

What type of souvenirs are you looking for?

ooo thanks! just random cheap souvenirs hahaha.

anyway need some spoonfeeding. really don't have time to plan a proper itinerary. So here's a rough one. Will just follow the flow:

Day 1: arrive at incheon about 8.30am. then check in at sinchon hostel. will vist ewha uni in the morning. afternoon bukchon hanok village. can spend whole afternoon here? or can squeeze in one more place? at night will be at hongdae area.

day 2: morning at noryangjin fish market. suggestions for one more place to visit in the morning? will probably head to ilsan city after lunch for my conference.

day 3: full day at nami island. at night.. myeongdong or gangnam?

Why ewha? I lived here for 5 years only went to the shops there only once. Why is it on the recommended places to go?
Hongdae I suggest if possible, adjust it so that it's on weekends. Weekends will have more people and the nightclubs will be more active.

Oh.. you're coming for work?

Third day at night, around what time? Myeongdong shopping a bit at 7 and dinner time, after that go to Gangnam nightclubs also okay if it falls on a weekend. Gangnam nightclubs for working people around 25-30+

it's the university itself not the shops. well the overall architecture looks pretty. nice for photo taking i guess yeah my 1st day is on a friday. got a korean friend to bring me around should be fine i guess.

nope. attending a conference.


ahh. don't plan to go nightclubs hahaha.

Okay..
Though I feel that the recently renovated Yonsei is better than Ewha xD

If you're young enough for nightclubs, must try once Korean nightclubs though
