If you're not renting a car for self drive.
Then staying close to City Hall is more preferable. Walking distance to the main bus terminal & plenty of bus routes pass thru City Hall.

it depends on currency exchange rate of that time

Renting a car. Previously stayed in Seogwipo and the East side.

Now going to stay Seogwipo and don't know North or West. Choose North coz ladies want to go to underground shopping.

my flight was retimed to later, I'll arrive in Incheon near midnight. What are my options to get to my hotel in central Seoul? I was planning on getting the bus transfer but the last bus is at 11pm.

i think u can check out this Airport Limousine bus. they do operate late night.

however once u reach Seoul Station, u still have to get a cab to ur hotel la since the metro is not operating yet.

worth it if the your card cash back/points is higher than exchange rate difference

Would it be safe to travel alone in Seoul? Thinking of a quick solo trip to sightsee & eat! Also, is seafood easy to find in the city?

Pretty safe i guess, what kind of seafood are you lookin for? There are lots of street seafood snack like lobster, oyster, squids and prawns etc

Hi guys few question I would like to ask
1. Any others apps better than google map? I heard google map not working good in korea
2. Any apps for check subway from points to points?
3. If rented car, do we need to take exam to convert into international driving license? or only pay to convert?

1. Kakao map / google map(for walking only), i switch between these 2 sometimes, and some places you need to google for their Korean words to be able to search them.
2. KakaoMetro
3. no idea

Anyone heading to Seoul in 28 May to 1 June?
Will it be summer alredi? can i wear shorts n t? just like M'sia? any advise?

I have trouble choosing my dinner in Seoul reason is they all r the same for korean food... almost similar..... any must try restaurant that serves good jap food or steaks?
google here n there also end up with korean food.... myeongdong street food is also so so only .... all fried n nothing special.... i.e; prawn tempura... m'sia also got lar..........

There are a lot actually, maybe you can eat Korean fried chicken? The james cheese ribs? Jokbal(pork trotter)? raw marinated soy crab? gul bossam alley?

didn't try any jap food, coz if i wanted jap food i would have visited japan instead

which is the best korean fried chicken? yeah, wat i mean like in m'sia if we wanted good jap food we can still go to places like ORIBE to eat. But in Korea.... hmmm..... thats a big issue.... wheres the best steak in seoul? thai food? Korean food is good for sharing not for solo eaters...

3 - if you have a valid Malaysia driving licence, buy an international driving permit from JPJ. They last for 2 years.

End of May it will be warm daytime, maybe mid to high 20's, cooler in the evening, probably need a light sweater.

There's plenty of variety of Korean food, you just have to be a bit adventurous. Plenty of Korean BBQ places and others - bulgogi, panjeon, dakgalbi, etc. The beef in BBQ places is usually pretty good, much better than Malaysia. The fried chicken places are much more like pubs - Koreans always have a beer with dakgalbi.

ahhh you didn't mention u going alone

korean fried chicken i only tried BHC (Better & happier choice) Chicken in myeongdong and it was really good! But portion also quite big. For steak i only went to james cheese steak, rest were korean foods u can check out my vlog

1. I using Naver and google map
2. Naver did the best compare, sometimes take bus from point A to point B will be more easier and walk less
3. go JPJ take IDP lesen for RM150 valid for a year

i am adventurous....was walking along myeong dong street to look for good food, saw lots of BBQ places and when i compare with a few places, they r preety much the same.... thats about it i.e beef, chicken, pork .... no other variety.... street food is just norm..... they just try to hype it up with some seafood with cheese, grille, fried stuff etc.... in malaysia we have tai chow, stim boat, malay food, mamak, jap, thai, steaks, etc. I actually have to turn to yelp and foursquare for recommendations....

Saw some korean fusion chinese food.... im like hmmm wth?! lol

definitely its safe! if people can travel in europe solo, i don think seoul is a problem lol..

and yeap, no problem looking for seafood in city. but, price can be a bit high.

haha..u cant compare with malaysia la, we are a multiracial country ma..

but don think korea food is all like their ramen, or kimchi jiggae..they have a lottt of other choices also..

I think thats about it.... they do have variety of snacks.... but talking about real food.... dont think they have variety.... my first time time walking around a korean food court.... n looking lost..... wth.... almost the same all of them....
