Congratulations on your upcoming birthday! As you probably know, traveling alone forces you to meet people. Have fun! (I’m so jealous…my trip to SK is planned for next year.)

I just visited Korea, and trust me, its such a beautiful country, with vibrant people who go out of their way to help you, and just an overall wonderful place thats a MUST VISIT. the sad part was i didn't want to leave haha ;((

Oh yes Korean is a beautiful country ❤️

yellow seats are for disable or elderly person not just for elderly. If you can't walk or something like that you can use that seat. It is 교통약자석 in Korean. and also pink seats are for pregnant woman.

I just went on my first solo travel trip to SK and the walking shoe situation is so true. I walked around 20k steps a day, so i'm really glad I bought new sneakers with memory foam soles prior to the trip :D

When I went to Korea, everyone was so nice. Several times on the subway we would stand at the subway map on the wall probably looking lost and some would come up to us and ask if we needed help.
