Hey, i'm planning to go Korea during this CNY. Can anyone advise me what to buy from korea? Anything that's cheap and nice there?

south korea need visa, but the process seems pretty simple.
as for what to get:
1. cosmetics
2. instant noodle (shin)
3. sea weed
4. hair pin/clips
5. photos, since you are going during CNY, look out for cherry blossoms (supposed to be as nice as japan, if not better)

Anymore "MUST BUY"?

Hi, there.

I'm planning to go to Korea end of April. Wondering how much is needed for 8 days tour? Is Cheju island worth visiting? Any recommended travel agency? Do I need an adaptor to use the switch in Korea??
*
Errm, i'll let u do the maths, a normal shirt took you 9000-15000 won (Korea currency).
A bowl of noddle is like 6000-7000 won, can't remember exactly...
I think get at least RM600 with you (After convert to won)

Cheju island is heaven! Damn nice wink.gif

Travel agency - no comment wink.gif Get one reputable.

Adapter = get one with 2 pin converter. Sony ericsson charger is usable without converter.

i went there last october autumn. backpack with frens.
if you wan to enjoy and see lots of things , u can go to busan.
over there, u can see their fish market n eat raw seafood (yummy).

hmm...the nami island i duno i got go b4 or not...but i remember i got go 1 island b4 to c whr winter sonata movie was acted.i think tht island is called nami island.mt sorak is it a place to skiing??if it is then no regret to go tht place but when too many ppls at tht place then it will b hard to ski coz too crowded like me last time.but is quite fun also.

then 2nd choice i nvr go b4 so i cant gif any opinion on tht.mayb keith_hjinhoh can gif some info on tht???u can ask the tours whether it is spring time or not...

Ski is a must for teenage like us! tongue.gif Gosh! Damn fun! - Mt.Sorak

Nami Island - a place where winter sonata get their scene. Nothing much special actually, just some tree. There's just for taking photo, the view is just like what we saw in winter sonata. If you're winter sonata freak, then must check this out!

Incheon... errm i never been there, but i landed @ Incheon International Airport... I don't recall my destination point been to Incheon, so i can't comment on it either.

Anyway, please bear in mind that some economical package offered by the agencies maybe due to a few factors:

1. Hotel (Maybe 2-3 Stars rather than 4-5 stars)
2. Number of places visit
3. Food quality
4. Is it everything included? Or Some activities the users have to pay by themself?

smile.gif Anyway, Enjoy it wink.gif

I called up already. That price is for low season, June onwards.  sad.gif As for April, after tax, tipping, processing fee and etc etc...is 3500 for April departure.

Is the price worth this much?? rclxub.gif
