Booked today Seoul/Busan travelling in end nov. 7D6N. Any cheap & clean accom to recommend in Seoul & Busan. Hows the weather like? Thanks

For hotels, you may try expedia.com.my or hotels.com.
I do book Hotel Biz Jogno, Insadong via Airasiago when they have 10% promo but I find the rate in expedia is a bit cheaper. Both also with free cancellation. I just booked Angel Hotel in Busan from exepdia.com.my with free cancellation too. The rates I have booked is cheaper than the guesthouses that I have enquired. Can check out the reviews in tripadvisor/agoda/booking.com

Only selected hotel offer free cancellation.

I have not tried booking flight plus hotel together via airasiago. I got my tickets during recent sales in feb, travelling end nov, rm269/way/pax seoul n busan, flight only.

Hi, can someone advise on Ktx pass/ticket. We of 4 pax. Will be taking ktx train from seoul to busan 1 way as we flying out from busan back to KL. Please advise should i get the ktx 1 way train ticket or is it worth to get the ktx pass? Thanks

I exchanged at money changer in mid valley at 3.20 yesterday. Can I use credit card in lotte mart and faceshop? Credit card rate is definitely much better.

Just for sharing...if you want book ktx from seoul to busan, book 1 month ahead and look for train 353 @ 10:20, price is krw43k+. I not sure which other timings have the same price but I chk on most of the other timing, price is krw50k+.

Same goes to nanta show, book ahead and you get 40% discount if the timetable suits you. I book mine on a saturday morning show at krw24k. 2nd floor seat but I read reviews the theather is not very big and any seating doesn't matter. Anyway, just want check it out for first time with that great discounts

Both also allow cancellation few days before actual date

EG data plan is good? Planning to get that, 1gb plus phone is abt krw25k. Can i use the sim in busan too? K book is at arrival hall ?? Thanks

Thanks for your feedback in the EG sim card. Are your foing the reservation online?

Dataroam maxis is rm36/day is more expensive leh..I guess 1gb data is enough for a week and it cost around rm100

Any other suggestion?

Can I redeem the tax refund of purchases in Seoul in busan airport?
Gwangjang mkt..can we order variety of food from different stalls, just like our food court here?
Is visa or master accepted by store in faceshop or lotte mart?

Many thanks for the tips

I use S4 phone and buy the EG micro sim from 7-11 for 30k won 1gb with 10k won calls. You need to register with EG following the instruction given on the pack plus attaching your passport. In minutes they will able to activate for you. If you really keen to get the sim card, better get online (think is 25.5k won) & collect from k books shop when you arrive incheon. At least u can get help from them or they register for you straight away.
