    Getting TO/AROUND: Seoul subway is easy way to get around. All signs are in English and you can get anywhere you want to go. I'd buy a metro card and put $$ on it to save time lining up for tickets. It only costs about 800W each trip.. little more for longer hauls. If you're a group short distances are cheaper in taxi... but if there's alot of traffic- it might not be worth it.

    Getting TO/AROUND: It's unbeleivable how cheap the train is in Korea. Even the bullet train! You can buy tickets for regular trains a few minutes before departure- but buy in advance for bullet train or ESPECIALLY for long weekends. If there are no seats- you can buy a "standing" ticket. Sometimes, yes, you'll have to stand or find a place to sit on the floor. But often there are extra seats... but for 3,500W for 3 hours- who's complaining!
    TIP: there's a lever under the seat so you can turn the seats to face each other if travelling with friends! Plus there's a snack and beer cart that comes around.

     Shincheon was the first place I stayed when I came here in '95. Couldn't believe there were that many people in the world. After two years left seoul. still wonderful though. good photo.    		nicolaitan Wed Mar 22, 2006 16:07 UTC
