Most travelers want to make the most of their limited time and budget. That’s why this blog exists

Most travelers want to plan the right itinerary using their limited time and budget wisely — dreaming of discovering a new world and enjoying the freedom of a getaway. That’s why I started this blog: to help you design a clear, realistic plan and start your Korean adventure with confidence.

🏙️ Seeing Seoul with Fresh Eyes

I was born and raised in Seoul, but after living in Canada for many years, coming back felt like stepping into a completely new world. So much had changed — new buildings, new trends, even new ways of life.
As I explored the city again, this time as a returning expat, I started to understand Seoul in a different way. That’s when I decided to share my experience to help people who are visiting Korea for the first time.

🌏 Why So Many People Want to Visit Korea

These days, Korea is more popular than ever, thanks to K-pop, K-dramas, and social media. People from all over the world are excited to see the places they’ve only watched on screen.
But Korea isn’t just about entertainment. It has 5,000 years of history, and at the same time, it leads the world in technology. You can walk from a royal palace to a high-tech shopping mall in just minutes. That mix of old and new is something really special — and it’s what makes visiting Korea such a unique experience.

📚 Too Much Information Can Be Confusing

Before any trip, I spend a lot of time researching. But sometimes, even with all that effort, I’ve made plans that didn’t work out once I arrived. Things looked better online, or the timing didn’t match, or the place just didn’t feel right.
It’s the same with Seoul. There are so many blogs, YouTube videos, and sample itineraries online. But the truth is — everyone travels differently. What’s fun for one person might not be great for someone else. So, it’s important to build a plan that fits you.

✍️ Why I Started This Blog

That’s why I created this blog — to help you take the first step in planning your trip to Korea.
I want to share easy and useful information that gives you a clear picture of what to expect. Not just the famous places, but also tips from someone who knows the city well — both as a local and as a returning visitor.

🧭 Start Simple, Then Make It Your Own

My goal is to make your planning easier. First, I’ll help you understand the big picture — where to go, what to see, and how to enjoy Korea in your own way.
Once you have the basics, you can adjust the details to match your interests, time, and budget. That way, your trip won’t just be fun — it will be personal and meaningful.
