Places to visit in South Korea

South Korea is city trips with seasons attached: Seoul for palaces, street food and K-beauty, Busan for beaches and seafood markets, and Jeju for an island break. Spring cherry blossoms in Jinhae and autumn colours at Nami Island and Seoraksan are worth timing a trip around. Most people fly from KL into Seoul, about six and a half hours, then add Busan by KTX or Jeju by a short domestic flight.
