Horrible Chinese food at Seoul
Chinese food in Seoul tastes really horrible from my experience eating at 2 Chinese restaurants in Seoul. Please do not try unless you want to experience how bad it is.
Seoul's Incheon Airport, South Korea
The taxi fare from Incheon Airport to Seoul is very expensive (about 50,000 won) so be very careful when taking a taxi. You can consider taking the airport coach which costs about 6000 won.
The famous Itaewon area is over-rated in my opinion. When I went there during a Saturday night, there was no big crowd and there is only one main street selling un-interesting stuff (and they were expensive). It was really a disappointment for me.
