Winter Sonata

May I know where is it located ? I want to rent a bicycle and take picture here with my GF at this one of the most famous photo back ground in Asia. 

yeah ^__^ you will be able to see Cherry Blossoms. A very popular city to view Cherry Blossoms is Jin Hae. Its an hour bus ride away from Busan.

I don't know about the difference between living cost in Korea and Japan because i havent been to japan ._." maybe other forrumers can answer ur question better...

hi. My friends and I (3 of us) have booked our flight ticket to Incheon-Seoul 19 May - 24 May 2011. We are looking for another lady to join our backpacking trip just to have a round number .  I think you can still get the Airasia flight ticket for RM855 return trip inc. taxes.

It's a 5D5N trip because we will reach Incheon on 19 May at 9.30pm and leave on 24 May 11.30pm. Hopefully it's still going to be springtime and we can walk freely with usual clothing because the weather/season change is quite unpredictable nowadays. This year it was still so cold in early May. And I hope summer won't come early next year.

All of us are 25 year-old and Muslims females. Currently we are finalizing the itinerary and accommodation but we are not in a rush since there is plenty of time before the trip. I can speak fairly good Korean and I have Koreans friends there (Seoul) that speak good English so I'm confident about going around in Seoul. One of my friend that coming with me also had stayed in Seoul for 2 weeks before.

Excluding the flight ticket and passport I would say that you need around RM1500 for accommodation/food/transportation+admission fee/a bit of shopping.

Please contact me at liyana@live.com.my if you're interested. My name is Liyana

Hi guys no one mentioned anything about visa.

Do we Malaysian need any? I am flying to Seoul on the 8th next week

Try Grape Garden House. Stayed there again with my family this time round. As pleasant as usual, and convenient. Just board AREX train from/to Incheon Airport there.

I'm heading to Korea tomorrow... Hope the weather will be good...
