Is it true jeju island is full of china visitors these days?

look like lotsa foreigners? your cam no get splash?

you tell me which popular destination that have less PRC visitors?

Got quite a few foreigners. Handphone then put in friend's bag.

There are some far off places don't have mainlander tourists. Last year I went to 울릉도 which is a pitstop for people going to 독도. There weren't any mainlanders there. Some angmo only.

Places that no blogs had covered. Which is why I hate travel blogs They make people miss out some good places.

that is why famous attractions usually have PRC.. there are some blogs did intro good places.. local blogs hehe

A lot of PRC and Chinese Malaysians go with tours and tours bring them to ginseng shop and "cosmetic" shops.
Both of which "kill" them.

Blogs bring them to places that normally Koreans won't go and since those blogs that are top hits on google are mostly from a few years back, some of them are outdated.

I going to korea next year in march..I going there with my sister. Already brought 1 way tiket. Didn't decide yet how long gnna be there? My question.
1) How long gnna take to visit all the best place around korea.? Planning cover busan - Seoul
2) Weather at that time? Need to bring winter coat?
3) Is there got Air bnb / couchsurfing?

yeah lo.. btw, what i mean local is korean blogs not m'sian blog. sorry for confusing

you are working in korea? good la can go hop around frequently to those nice places intro more places to me. eventhough i frequent to korea but i feel the changes are too fast. can't keep up that much unless like you staying there la.. but if you are working, also don't have much time as don't have much leave or holidays like msia. if you are a student than different story

got changes?
such as?

Studying.

Shops have very high turnover rate.
Meaning most shops will shutdown in 6 months.
And new sites will be constructed. For example, the "new" park in between Hongdae and Yeonnam-dong. Many new restaurants and cafes there but most Malaysian blogs wouldn't know about those. There's a bah kut teh restaurant there that is opened by a Malaysian but I doubt any people outside Korea would know about it, which is why I don't really recommend people to follow itinerary from Malaysian travel blogs since they are not living here and wouldn't know the place well anyway..

as mentioned by koonghx high turnover for shops / restaurants. then always pop up new places for drama fanatics

yeah i agree. i knew about this bak kut teh restaurant. no bother to try also. have you try?

Tried a few times.
For Malaysians, it wouldn't be very good. But for me, I just use it as something to bring foreigner friends to eat.
"You wanna try Chinese Malaysian food"?
Though there's no more Malay Malaysian restaurant here anymore because of the Felda scandal.

yeah. this is what i'm thinking too. i tell my friends to try it out and bring them to try again when they came to Msia. for them to compare

1 thing I am frustrated about is that no one promote tourists to eat IMO the best Korean food.
순대국 sundaegook

유가네 yugane and 안동찜닭 andongjjimdak are frequently recommended to tourists but those two sucks.

My romanization is horrible because I never bothered to learn it.

is alright. i know to read hangul. beginner level only lolz. ewww.. i dislike sundae.
yugane and andong jjimdak is franchise restaurant and is no doubts people will recommend it. if i'm not mistaken, they have branches out of korea. btw, i like jjimdak but is from andong or from other restaurant. it's way delicious than the andong jjimdak restaurant. this andong jjimdak price is quite expensive oh yeah also the 토속촌 삼계탕 and others for me is over rated as well but it's full with tourists cause famous. however still have some local working adults frequent the restaurant also

Next week is 초복 btw..
Gonna go try 보신탕

ewww... people should stop this meat consumption.. also i think i read that due to animal right, younger gens of s.k consume less of this type of meat?

More due to it not being popular since young people are less likely to be exposed to eating it.
I for one, don't care as long as the animals involved are farmed and not stolen from people's house.

Look who came to Sinchon today

What do you guys think about this if i were to travel with my mom. Is this sufficient?

Kul > Busan ( 1 night) > Jeju (3 nights) > Seoul ( 7 nights).

And do you guys recommend to drive in Jeju and Seoul?

Syukur weather in Seoul was really good for past one week. One more day left
