I should be heading over there in a year or so (for school) but my only otions seem to be Busan and Seoul. I'm a small-town kid (from the south so I'm curious about what life will be like?I'm no Picassohttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06516337555349888808noreply@blogger.comBlogger3125tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21444271.post-23091231052514034342010-09-03T05:48:04.318+09:002010-09-03T05:48:04.318+09:00I have a soft spot for Gwangju too.

Close to Seoul, but near the countryside also.Helenahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11584075071891748174noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21444271.post-47384136952181629712010-09-02T17:27:17.981+09:002010-09-02T17:27:17.981+09:00Personally, I love Busan, and it feels a WORLD awa...Personally, I love Busan, and it feels a WORLD away from Seoul to me. When I went to Seoul for my summer vacation, I had a great time, but about once an hour something would happen that made me say, "God, I'm so happy I don't live here." Just TOO many people, too busy, too...impersonal. Granted it might just have been the areas I visited, but it just felt so damn huge.<br /><br />Busan is large too, but it has so much more of a small-town feel (to me, at least). There are only three subway lines as opposed to - what - 10? 11? in Seoul. And there's the beach of course. ^^<br /><br />Can't speak for other cities as I haven't spent much time there. Jeonju was gorgeous and comfortable but TINY for my taste.CeilingofStarshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05110238349397590911noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21444271.post-56306841224199686932010-09-02T16:47:08.445+09:002010-09-02T16:47:08.445+09:00I personally live in Daegu.

Only 2 hours away from Busan and Seoul, I think. It's nice and fast paced in some areas, whereas slower in others. So it's the both of both world imho.Laura.https://www.blogger.com/profile/14685462765323441690noreply@blogger.com
