South Korea

Korea’s Cultural Sweet Spot

Once I started researching things to do in Gyeongju, I got a good feeling about the place.

It’s possible to take a Seoraksan day trip from Seoul.

I love both of these cities equally—I’m not going to take a side.

You should absolutely make a beeline to Busan—here’s why.

South Korea’s cosmopolitan, futuristic capital is as accessible for first-time visitors as it is complex enough to discover over and over again.

I’ve long speculated that South Korea would be the first country in East Asia to reopen to travel.

Approach the topic of South Korea travel cost strategically rather than spastically.

I hope I’m not setting you up for disappointment when I say this, but Seoraksan Mountain is one of my favorite places I’ve visited in Korea.

Should you visit Gyeongju? Unfortunately, this is not a “yes” or “no” question.

I don’t need fifth-generation technology to appreciate the age-old splendor of hanami, or whatever it is they call cherry blossom viewing in Korea.
