16 things to know before heading to South Korea

Charles Usher

Feb 18, 2024 • 10 min read

visit korea year frankfurt

South Korea’s public-transport choices – including Busan’s Sky Capsule – are the envy of the world. As you plan your trip, count on using the nationwide network © By f11photo / Shutterstock

Has any place been on a run of late like  South Korea ?

The country is on the lips of travelers around the world, thanks to its cutting-edge technology, world-class cuisine, chart-topping pop bands and some of the most exciting movies and TV series being made anywhere. 

Add to all this centuries of tradition and copious natural blessings, all in a country scarcely larger than Ireland, and you’ve got one of the planet’s great travel destinations.

Safe, friendly and possessing superb infrastructure, South Korea is a truly easy – not to mention rewarding – place to explore. Read on for tips to make your visit even easier.

1. Complete your pre-trip registration three days before your flight

Most travelers – including citizens of the US, Australia and the UK – can visit South Korea visa-free for up to 90 days (up to six months for Canadians). You’ll still need to apply for a Korea Electronic Travel Authorization on the K-ETA website , however, at least 72 hours before departure. It’s a simple process, and your K-ETA is valid for two years from the date of approval.

2. Time your visit with the trees

We recommend planning your visit to South Korea for spring or fall , when the peninsula gets its most temperate weather. Bonus points if you can time it to coincide with one of the country’s two periods of arboreal magic. Korea’s cherry blossoms start blooming in mid-March on Jeju-do Island , off the south coast, and typically appear in Seoul in early April. In late October and early November, the leaves of Korea’s many ancient ginkgo trees turn into brilliant golden torches, giving Seoul and other cities a particularly regal look for several weeks.

3. Mind these two major holidays

The two periods that can cause travelers real problems are the multi-day Lunar New Year and Chuseok (fall harvest) holidays. On these two occasions every year, Koreans hit the road en masse, making booking a bus or train ticket nearly impossible. The dates change each year, so be sure to check when these are before making travel plans. 

If you can’t avoid a holiday, base yourself in Seoul or Busan for its duration. Plenty of businesses stay open, and the cities can be surprisingly peaceful with everyone out of town.

4. Take advantage of Korea’s world-class public transportation

Korea’s subways, trains and buses are clean, convenient and efficient . It can sometimes seem like a new station is added to the Seoul metro every month, and the rail and intercity bus networks will take you to every corner of the country. Public transportation is cheap: bus and subway fares in Seoul start at just ₩1250. In all of South Korea, Jeju-do is the only place where renting a car might make sense, and even there it’s probably not necessary.

With plentiful English information and sensible design, public transportation in Korea makes getting from here to there a breeze. To get moving, start by picking up a T-money transit card at a convenience store or from a vending machine in any subway station. Separate kiosks can be used to load money onto your card. Tap your card both when you board and get off the subway or bus. Fares are calculated by distance, so if you forget to tap when disembarking, you’ll be charged more and won’t be able to transfer for free. You can also use T-money cards in most taxis.

When traveling longer distances, it’s simple enough to just buy intercity bus or train tickets at stations. For the high-speed KTX train and some of the more popular routes and times – departing Seoul on Saturday morning, for example – it’s a good idea to purchase in advance. Bus tickets are typically readily available for purchase from machines and counters in bus stations. Buy train tickets on the website of  KORAIL , the national operator.

5. Stay connected with these essential apps

Wi-fi is so prevalent in Korean cities that you can do without a local SIM card, but if you decide that you want one just in case, or if you plan to head to rural areas, the easiest place to pick one up is at one of the many  telecom roaming centers at Incheon Airport upon arrival. You can also rent a phone if you didn’t bring your own.

Helpful apps to download include Naver Map ( iOS and Android ), which works better than Google Maps in South Korea; MangoPlate ( iOS and Android ) for finding restaurants and cafes; Subway Korea for navigating cities’ metro systems; and Kakao T ( iOS and Android ), which is like Uber but for taxis.

6. Get out of town

There are two Koreas. We don’t mean North and South, but rather Seoul and everything else – or, a bit more broadly, urban Korea and rural Korea. The country has a reputation for being a hyper-paced, highly wired pop-culture dynamo, but its hinterlands present a much different picture, and you’d be missing out big time if you skip them. 

The Korean countryside is beautiful, mountains and rivers make for beautiful vistas, and life is lived differently here than in the cities. The population is older – most people under 40 have decamped to the cities – and the pace is slower. At least once on your trip, get out of the cities and immerse yourself in this more traditional side of Korea.

7. Learn your ga , na , da , ra , ma , bas

Basic English is widely understood in Korea by folks under 50, and signage is almost always in both Korean and English. Yet it’s still a good (and respectful) idea to learn a bit of the language. 

Beyond memorizing a few essential Korean words and phrases, learning hangul, the Korean alphabet, is like gaining access to a secret bonus level of Korean travel. If you can sound out the letters, you’ll find that you already know what things like 카페 모카 ( ka-pe mo-ka ), 비빔밥 (bibimbap) and 사우나 ( sa-oo-na ) are. 

Hangul is easy to learn. King Sejong the Great, who oversaw its creation in the 15th century, declared that a wise man could pick it up before noon and even an idiot could learn it in 10 days.  Let’s Learn Hangul  teaches the Korean alphabet in an interactive, easy-to-follow way.

8. Roll with the nudges

Koreans live life in a hurry, and they do so in a densely populated country, so you shouldn’t expect the same sense of personal space or public courtesies you find in your home country. Koreans won’t hold doors open for you or apologize if they bump into you when walking. When getting on or off the subway, they likely won’t say, “Excuse me” – they’ll just nudge you aside. They’re not being rude, though. 

When you live in a city as crowded as Seoul, it’s just not practical to say sorry every time you knock shoulders with someone – you’d be apologizing constantly. This can be maddening to outsiders, but just accept it and roll with the nudges.

9. Be ready to get personal

The typical greeting here is a quick bow – nothing dramatic, just a head nod deep enough for your gaze to meet the floor – but you’ll sometimes be offered a handshake instead. If you are, expect more of a gentle clasp than the old squeeze-and-pump.

You’ll likely be asked questions more personal than you’re accustomed to by someone you just met. At the top of this list is your age. This data point is essential to Koreans, as it informs how they talk to one another: how formal their verb endings should be and whether to use honorifics. Inquiries about marital status, occupation and your opinion of Korea are also common. Answer politely, and feel free to return the question.

10. Wear what you like, but don’t pack anything too risqué

As a traveler, you can feel free to dress for the weather and comfort. Koreans are pretty relaxed about attire, even if they’re more modest than you might expect. If visiting a temple , while shorts are fine, tank tops and miniskirts are not. Both men and women frequently wear t-shirts at the beach (though it’s best to leave the Speedo or thong at home). Korean women almost never wear low-cut tops, and female travelers could find that doing so brings unwelcome looks. Tattoos are now common among young people, yet even still some bathhouses will deny entry if you show any ink.

11. Eat with others and don’t be afraid to shout for service

Eating is a communal activity in Korea, and many restaurants, especially barbecue joints, don’t offer single servings. So if you’re traveling solo, you might either have to drag someone from your hostel along with you (not a tough sell) or loosen your belt and order pork belly for two (poor thing).

At restaurants, servers won’t come check up on you, and most places have call buttons on each table. Give it a push, and someone will be right over. Otherwise, to grab the waitstaff’s attention, raise your hand and shout, “ Yogiyo !” (“Over here!”) Water is usually self-service, and occasionally side dishes are, too. If your server doesn’t set a bottle of water on your table, look around for a water dispenser and stacks of metal cups. At the end of your meal, take the check to the front counter to pay. There’s no tipping.

12. Is North Korea a concern?

Despite international headlines, South Koreans don’t worry about an attack from  North Korea  – and neither should you. Military clashes are very rare, and danger to civilians is rarer still. A guided tour to the  DMZ can be a fascinating and truly find-it-nowhere-else experience. From afar, North Korea can seem almost comical in its eccentricities, but when you’re looking at South Korean soldiers looking at North Korean soldiers looking at you, the geopolitical stakes hit different. Plus, many tours offer what may be your only chance to actually step foot in the world’s most secretive country.

13. Monitor the air quality

Even in post-pandemic times, it’s a good idea to always carry a mask, as air quality can occasionally drop to pretty nasty levels. This is especially true in spring, when dust blown off the deserts of Mongolia and northern China combines with local pollution to create unhealthy air. Download an app like IQAir Air Visual (for iOS or Android ) to keep track of current conditions and the upcoming forecast across the country.

14. You might have to be flexible about your diet

If you have food allergies or a specific diet, you may have a hard time finding places to eat or getting clear information about ingredients. Vegetarianism and veganism are slowly gaining popularity in Korea, but not many restaurants cater to these diets. Even dishes that you might think are vegetarian are often made with anchovy broth or fermented shrimp.  

15. Recognize that LGBTQI+ acceptance still has a long way to go 

While attitudes are slowly changing, Korea remains a conservative society in many respects, and anti-LGBTQI+ prejudice is common. Even so, LGBTQI+ travelers are more likely to be on the receiving end of curious – if misinformed – questions than any sort of open hostility. Public displays of affection are generally frowned upon (though this goes for straight couples, too).

Seoul has small gay districts in Itaweon and Jongno-3-ga, while the Hongdae-Sinchon-Ewha university corridor is another place where LGBTQI+ Koreans feel comfortable being themselves. 

16. Use common sense and keep these numbers handy, just in case

Theft and violent crime are rare in South Korea. Scams and pickpockets targeting travelers are virtually nonexistent, and Koreans typically go out of their way to be hospitable to visitors. Nonetheless – as anyone should anywhere – do exercise basic caution and common sense. South Korea has strict drug laws, and don’t even think about trying to sneak past them. Nightlife often revolves around heavy drinking, so know your limit to avoid putting yourself in a sketchy situation.

If you do have an emergency, call 112 to reach the police, 119 for emergency services or 1330 to reach the Korea Travel Hotline, where an operator will connect you to the appropriate service and serve as an interpreter. That number can also be used to reach the Korea Tourist Police .

Korea tourism festival to be held in Frankfurt

Stories of Korean culture and tourism are set to captivate Germany at a major outdoor festival held in Frankfurt this weekend, in commemoration of the 140 years of diplomatic bond between the two nations, the Korea Tourism Organization announced Monday.

Kicking off on Friday, the three-day festival will unfold at the Rossmarkt Square in Frankfurt. The festival is held in connection to the renowned Museum Embankment Festival, also known as Museumsufer Fest, an annual celebration of art and culture in Germany that attracts approximately 3 million visitors each year.

Dubbed "Your Korea Festival," the tourism event will showcase various promotional booths that have been jointly organized by various local Korean governments and private tourism agencies.

Guests will have the opportunity to engage with the worlds of K-pop, K-beauty, K-food and K-travel.

Attendees can savor the delights of Korean bunsik (fast food) and makgeolli, while also indulging in skin care and makeup demonstrations. K-pop random play dance sessions -- one of the highlights of the festival -- are set to take place on Saturday, followed by a 90-minute K-pop dance class scheduled for Sunday.

Against the backdrop of the festival, stories of iconic landmarks and must-visit spots of Korea chosen by the KTO will take center stage, offering visitors to get a glimpse into the country's heritage.

Taking into consideration the cultural phenomenon of a "gap year," a period encouraged in Germany between high school graduation and college entry that offers students the freedom to engage in social activities and travels while pondering their future career paths, the festival has curated a special focus on gap year tourism products. The new tourism package is to offer enticing travel opportunities that blend seamlessly with educational journeys for foreign students, according to the KTO.

Following the pandemic, Germany has recorded an impressive rebound in the resumption of international flights among European nations, according to Eun Yu-ri, head of the KTO's Frankfurt branch. Eun highlighted that the KTO is dedicated to crafting tailored travel destination programs for German tourists, to keep up with growing interest in all things K-culture.

The 4,800-square-metre Korean Garden (Koreanischer Garten) in the Grüneburg Park (Grüneburgpark) originated as part of South Korea’s presentation as the guest of honour at the 2005 Frankfurt Book Fair, and was a gift to the city of Frankfurt am Main. This exotic treasure has been designed in the style of traditional Korean scholars’ gardens, which since the 16th century have served as havens for artists and intellectuals. The garden should therefore also be a refuge for resting and meditation for residents of Frankfurt. 

Next to two impressive pavilions, which were made from Korean materials, there are two square ponds with round islands. Each element in the design has a serious symbolic meaning and corresponds to Far Eastern philosophies. This also relates to the selection of plants, since, for example, pines, bamboo trees and plum trees are symbols of long life.

The arrangement of the Korean Garden reflects the four seasons from a philosophical point of view. The spring garden is located right in the main entry area. Here scholars not only await the springtime reawakening of nature, but also sometimes the arrival of their guests. The summer garden, with a “morning dew pavilion” built on wooden columns, offers recuperation and relaxation with its large pond. In the Korean tradition, it is meant to be a place for the meeting between man and nature. The autumn garden is in the highest position, and allows for a comprehensive view of autumnal nature. The winter garden has a small pond and also contains the “plum arbour pavilion”, where people can meet to talk, warmed by the traditional “Ondol” floor-heating system. 

In this way, this impressive gift from the Koreans to their hosts brings Frankfurt residents closer to the “Land of Morning Calm” during each season of the year.

KTO Releases New Brand Identity for “Visit Korea Year 2023-2024″

A new emblem, slogan, and brand identity to commemorate “Visit Korea Year 2023-2024″ has been released by the Korean Tourism Organization.

The new emblem is designed with a traditional hanbok pattern and a  gat  (traditional hat) on “VISIT KOREA YEAR” letters.

The combination of traditional Korean object and modern design depicts a Korean-style vibe that embraces the country’s long-lasting tradition and modern spotlight as the epicenter of culture and arts.

The new slogan to go with the theme is “Ride the Korean Wave”.

With a kick-off of the new brand identity, the VISITKOREA website is planning to open a special Visit Korea Year 2023-2024 page and an official promotional video in the near future.

U.S. and South Korea fly warplanes in interception drills after North Korea’s missile test

Image:

South Korea and the United States flew advanced stealth fighters in a joint missile-interception drill Friday over the Korean Peninsula, South Korea’s air force said, an apparent response to a spate of weapons tests this year by rival North Korea.

North Korea has conducted six rounds of missile tests so far this year, most of them reportedly involving cruise missiles that typically fly at a low altitude to overcome opponents’ missile defenses. Analysts say that in the event of a conflict, North Korea aims to use cruise missiles to strike U.S. aircraft carriers as well as U.S. military bases in Japan.

South Korea’s air force said in a statement the drill on Friday involved fifth-generation stealth F-35A fighter jets from both countries and other fighter jets from South Korea. It said the U.S. F-35As were deployed in South Korea on Wednesday from Kadena Air Base in Okinawa, Japan.

North Korea has ramped up its weapons tests since 2022 in what experts call an attempt to increase its leverage in future diplomacy. South Korea and the U.S. have responded by expanding their military exercises and a trilateral training involving Japan.

On the sidelines of a G20 meeting in Rio De Janeiro on Thursday, the top diplomats from South Korea, the U.S. and Japan agreed to strengthen their joint response capability against North Korea’s evolving nuclear threats and coordinate to block the North’s financing of its nuclear program, according to South Korea’s Foreign Ministry.

This year, North Korea is expected to step up its testing activities and belligerent rhetoric as both the U.S and South Korea head into elections. North Korea is likely seeking international recognition as a nuclear state, a status that experts say the North thinks would help it receive relief from U.S.-led economic sanctions.

North Korea’s advancing nuclear arsenal has likely emboldened its stance, and there are concerns that the North may launch a limited military provocation against the South. Observers say a full-scale attack is unlikely as the North is outgunned by more superior U.S. and South Korean forces.

U.S. and South Korean officials have repeatedly warned that any nuclear attack by North Korea against them would spell the end of the North’s government led by Kim Jong Un.

A guide to 10 bars in seoul.

@ch_dram A private house in Yeonhui-dong has been converted into COBBLER Yeonhee. Step inside the large iron gate, past the garden to the side, and enter the building. You will find a long bar and table seating inside. They also have cozy rooms hidden in the wall, perfect for a second round of gatherings. The garden and terrace are also available for seating.

@pbysj CHARLES H. was included in the World’s 50 Best Bars for two consecutive years in 2021 and 2022. It firmly maintains the concept of a classic speakeasy bar while pursuing a luxurious sensibility. The bar is located on B1 at the Four Seasons Hotel Seoul, but you may have a hard time finding it because there are no direction signs. Once you pass through the secret door, you will find an exotic and colorful space. The cocktails and the space planning are impressive, with Korean touches visible everywhere. Bartenders and staffs offer top-grade and noteworthy services. Reservations are recommended, and the dress code is smart casual. Take it into consideration when you visit the bar.

@ch_dram Bar Sook•Hee Myeongdong is located on the 4th floor of the Starbucks building next to Myeongdong Catholic Cathedral. Here, the spacious interior, in contrast to the speakeasy bar-like entrance, is impressive. The interior decoration is inspired by Geunjeongjeon Hall of Gyeongbokgung Palace and it stands out even more with a glamorous showcase inside. The greetings of talented bartenders and top-notch chefs at this bar, hoping to become a friendly neighborhood bar, will make you feel at home. It is a great place for newcomers to the bar scene, as bartenders will be happy to make recommendations when you tell them your cocktail and whiskey preferences.

@piao.sho An architect’s study overlooking a substation and the Hangang River is named maha hannam. maha hannam serves as an architecture firm, a cafe, and a whiskey bar. The bar is located on the 4th floor of a closed bathhouse that sits on the hills in the old city near Yongsan Park. Maha means “great” and “infinite.” The space features cozy interior decorations of wood and stone, sunbeds and spiraling stairs, sensual objects and art pieces, furniture, an expansive view of the Hangang River, and an unexpected view of a substation, altogether presenting a healing moment. Just as the developed neighborhood by the Hangang River blends in with the friendly neighborhood, modern beauty blends well with the patches of the past left in the cafe. Coffee is served in moka pots creating picturesque scenes; premium desserts include tiramisu by BISTECCA, salt bread, and croissants. The whiskey bar serves liquors perfect for a dark evening, such as The Balvenie, Kavalan, and Talisker.

@ch_dram VESPER, the bar, is located at the entrance of Seorae Village. Enter the alleyway, and you will find VESPER’s illuminated signboard in contrast to the turquoise wall on the first floor. The bar has signature cocktails and a variety of whiskeys. The bar’s many talented bartenders can customize a cocktail for you when you tell them your preferences. They also have an extensive food menu, making it a great place to dine. The Katsu Sando, a moist pork cutlet sandwich, is one of the signature menu items here.

@ch_dram The signature cocktails of CHAM IN SEASON use seasonal ingredients and change quarterly. Bar Cham, the parent bar, has been instrumental in spreading multilayered cocktails using traditional liquors and Korean food ingredients. This concept has been taken a step further with the experimental and maniac cocktails at CHAM IN SEASON. In line with its concept, the bar seats about eight people; there are tables for four and a terrace, making the bar a great place to enjoy a small and private atmosphere.

@ch_dram Le Chamber is located near Apgujeongrodeo Station on the Bundang Line of the Seoul Subway. This first-generation speakeasy bar is always packed with regular customers. The expansive and spacious indoor area that emerges after passing through the hidden entrance doesn’t feel like an underground space. The entrance is constructed like a bookshelf, and you must touch a specific book to enter. It will remind you of the movie “Kingsman” and make you feel like you are in another world. It is a must-visit place for bar hoppers and bar lovers.

@ch_dram Euljiro’s local landmark Bar Sook•Hee has relocated to Pil-dong. Go through the entrance standing in an alleyway with a speakeasy-like atmosphere, and the first thing you will find is the contrastingly high ceiling and overall large space. We recommend you enjoy the wide selection of cocktails with seasonal fruits, a variety of whiskey, and classic cocktails at Bar Sook•Hee’s new space. In addition, the bar is open as a coffee shop serving brewed coffee from noon to 6 PM on Thursdays and Fridays. Take note when you visit.

@ch_dram BAR SWALLOW is located in Hannam-dong, across Cheil Worldwide, between Hangangjin and Itaewon Stations on Seoul Subway Line 6. Bartender Kim Jin-hwan, the 2018 World Class Bartender winner, opened this bar after working at other prestigious bars such as Hannam Coffee Bar K, Bar Musk, and Lotte Hotel’s The Drawing Room Bar. The exterior is dark green with a small window, and the interior is quite cozy with a spacious bar area and three tables inside. Bartender Kim Jin-hwan and staff are exceptionally skilled. Tell them your preferences, and they will customize cocktails that suit your taste. It is a great place to visit in Hannam-dong after dining in the area for a second round or a pre-dinner drink.

@ch_dram Bar Cham is a hanok bar located in an alley in Seochon. Bartender Lim Byoung-jin, the 2015 World Class Bartender winner and one of the most famous bartenders today, represents Bar Cham. The bar was featured in Netflix’s “Paik’s Spirit” on the traditional liquor episode, adding to its fame. The bar offers various signature cocktail menus based on traditional liquors. Every season, the menu is updated by renewing signature cocktails. It is impressive that they make daring touches to various new cocktails while maintaining the balance of taste. Classic cocktails are still available. If you are not sure of new places to explore after visiting various cafes and restaurants in Seochon, we recommend visiting Bar Cham where new experiences always await.
