Planning to go seoul on 29 Oct to 8 Nov for beautiful Autumn foliage.

I check sky scanner and cheapest full service airline is Vietnam airlines around rm1200 return. Need to transit at hanoi for 2 hours. Total about 9.5 hours.
Is it worth?

regular trip will be 7hour from klia straight incheon.
cold weather arrive faster from own experience

Another question, since current exchange rate is ~ 3.5MYR to 1000KRW, do you suggest to change in malaysia or go to myeondong for changing the bulk of korean won?
thx

also i notice google map mostly prompt buses instead of the subway. am i missing something here?
does the discover seoul pass comes with free travel or need to top up separately. thanks again.
*
arex train & seoul metro & bus use same system, same card.
i read discover pass already include travel fee.

for official tourist attraction & stops,
i have a mini guide took from seoul main station earlier this year. later i attach here see.

or else just watch travel vlogs and note down the hot spots.

some of the places require each person to order or the menu is for 2 pax min, but not all.
i would say mostly all, its their culture or something.
its difficult to spot a korean eating alone at a table.

Some live updates.
I still have approx 21 hours on my pass as of now.
I have covered:
Day 1:
Day 2:
Day 3:
Tmrw last leg planning to cover:
Figure museum
Coed aquarium
SM town theatre
Lotte world

I skip the hanbok bcos I was alone and no reason to wear fancy clothes and take picture myself 😂😂😂

Google map screw me multiple times. Pay extra attention to road direction and place of taking bus.
Wasted a lot of time getting my rides and direction to walk.

hihi. has anyone been to seoul with uniqlo ultra warm? i will be going there with toddlers and senior citizen in Jan20. i heard that's the coldest month? i wonder if wearing uniqlo heattech ultra warm + shirt + winter jacket is enough? i want to be well prepared for the kids and elders but not overpacking luggages.

Appreciate your feedback! thank you!

3,4 layer should be good. prepare to cover mouth & nose with scarf or face towel due to breathing cold air make body weak or dry lip
