Updated 2023, gives very gd recommendations even for seasoned travelers to South Korea. Able to plan 2 weeks trip based on this. Way better than many other travel guides. Good maps, just the right amt of info.

[Shannon · Rating 4 out of 5]

This extensive travel book covers all the areas of Seoul and outside excursions. I picked this up primarily to get details about Busan and Jeju assuming work sends me to South Korea a second time.

Maps, pictures, what to do if you only have two days, etc.

MY GRADE: B plus.

take me BACK

every mention of jjajjangmyeon in the final chapters of this made me black out and see stars. I NEED.

Jokes aside this is a WILDLY helpful resource. I'm giving it five stars simply because it takes a lot for a book to have physically and literally in real life affected my actual experience of life so much lol.
I never found a single inconsistency and it basically made it so I didn't have to do the whole research google doc type A itinerary thing, which I thought would seem to totally be my style but I found myself just nooooottttttt wanting to work on. This book let me be flexible! and if I just circled every bookstore and market and did that then what's it to youuuuuuuuuuu.

i read the Seoul and Paju sections while in Seoul and Paju and then the Busan and Jeju parts months later.
