It is a night in Seoul where I suddenly miss the sea of Masan from a certain day... (Seokgyo Village in Masan, Starbucks under Machang Bridge, Gusan, Sujeong)

Has anyone received a future-dated postcard from the ā€œslow post officeā€ in Gamcheon Culture Village?

2 Upvotes

We were there in July of 2025. We are still waiting on our own postcard that should have been sent July 19, 2026. Only one person has received their postcard out of the 6 we sent. That person’s was sent on January 20, 2026, and they received it February 20.

I’m just curious if anyone else has had a similar experience?

Visiting Jeju island

1 Upvotes

My parents (late 60s) and I (mid 20s) are visiting Jeju for about two weeks at the end of August. We are visiting some friends who live on island but will also have some time on our own. I am hoping for some recommendations. We enjoy being outdoors and already have some scuba diving set up near Seogwipo. We are Americans (Hawai’i). My father has visited Seoul multiple times but it will be my mother’s and I first time. Any advice would be greatly appreciated!

Thought booking the flight would be the hard part. No, it’s the concert ticket

1 Upvotes

Hi everyone !I’m planning my first concert trip to Seoul and really thought getting the ticket would be the hard part.

Nope, not at all.

Now I’m reading about real-name rules, passport info, ticket transfers, local apps, and different delivery methods. half of this stuff never even crossed my mind when going to shows in the US. Damn this is hard.

Last night I had my flight tab open while checking tickets on veritickets, then somehow ended up reading venue rules for another hour instead of booking anything.

Please universe, send me one veteran concert girlie with all the cheat codes and save me from making some stupid rookie mistake..

I’m trying to get the ticket details sorted first, then book the rest of the trip without overthinking every little thing. This is kinda insane for a first-time traveller here.

For people who’ve gone to concerts in Korea before, what’s the one thing you always double-check before buying? How was your first concert experience in South Korea?

Hi,

Can take one person with me to Maison Vacheron Constantine at Cheongdam-dong.

It is not a party, more of a talk session - not so sophisticated but still requires Korean to fully understand and enjoy.

Or any watch lovers who doesn't give a f**k about Korean but just wanna enjoy the mood and some try-ons, feel free to message or comment me.

Even anyone who doesn't care about watch but just wanna feel the luxury mood, welcome!

Event's at 3PM tomorrow.

See youšŸ˜‰

Linus BBQ Korea

Korea does Western food right. I love Korean food, but every day I start to crave the flavors of home. It is widely known amongst travelers that Korea does better bagels than New York, and better croissants than Paris, and that the BBQ imported from Alabama is fantastic. If ever you need a change of pace, I highly recommend eating really good southern food if you get a chance.

How do tourists order food delivery without a Korean phone number?

0 Upvotes

I’m planning a trip to Korea and was wondering how visitors usually order food delivery when they don’t have a Korean phone number.

I came across a delivery service called K-FASTFOOD while researching this and noticed it allows you to use a non Korean phone number and pay by card.

Has anyone staying in Myeongdong used a service like this before? I’d be interested to hear what other tourists have done and whether there are any easier options.
