Are you planning to visit Seoul or the country of South Korea? What are some of the TOP things you feel are a must-do must-eat when visiting? What is overrated in your opinion? Drop a comment & share! 👍🏼
JEFF!!!! Your vlog is absolutely EXCELLENT. I am in the midst of planning a 3-week stay in Seoul starting in May and found everything you posted incredibly useful. thank you so much.
Thank you for the kind words and more importantly, I am glad you found it useful for your trip! Thank you for subscribing too and may you have an amazing trip in Seoul! I'm sure you'll be able to squeeze more in than I was with 3 weeks 😎
Jeff, I was particularly interested in booking the DMZ trip thru the company you listed. I'm doing less foodie stuff than you but have lots of art on my itinerary. there are some amazing museums in seoul. once again, thanks.
@@irmazandl look into the JSA part of the tour. I had originally booked that specific one but due to political tensions at the time they had to cancel and rebook us on this one. The JSA includes visiting the blue bunkers where the soldiers from both sides are standing guard watching each other. Good luck!!
Yes! What a great episode AND the type of travel guide I've been seeking. It's refreshing to see someone older than early 30s, who actually can tell the difference between good food and hype! I really appreciate you mentioning the good, and the less interesting things - because youTube is so full of the flat predictable instagram stuff - THANK YOU for the intelligent and experience-focused tips - i now have a list of things to do and where to eat on my first trip there in a few weeks
Thank you for the feedback and I am glad you found this video beneficial for your trip! I really do just try to keep it real. I have no reason to sugarcoat anything if my personal experience was just ok. Thanks again for watching and enjoy your trip!
I had to use Google Translate to see what you said and thanks for watching! As a self proclaimed foodie, I tend to get really excited about food 😉 I hope you can make it back to Korea too 🙏🏻
Hi Jeff! I’m so excited to find your channel. I was debating whether to add a few days of Taiwan to my South Korea trip. It would be my first time in both countries so now I know they both have so much to see on their own! My bf and I are thinking of adding some camping to our South Korea trip as a side trip from Seoul. Looking forward to more videos. Cheers. 🎉
Hi Ericka - I’m glad you found the video helpful in planning your future travels. I hope you have an amazing time in both places. Thank you so much for subscribing as well!
I am planning to visit Seoul again in March 2024. One of the stunning nature parks in this video is the Hwadam Botanic Garden. I might add this to my itinerary, too. Thank you for sharing. When I first look at your appearance, you remind the look of one of former Liverpool players his name is Fabinho from Brazil. There are one in a million face similarities that happen in this world. No heart feeling, bro. I really enjoy and like your posting.❤ 😊. ✌️
Thanks for watching and supporting the channel! I hope you found it useful and the botanical garden is definitely a place that will blow your mind. I’m sure in Spring season it will be just as beautiful!
Im going next month. I like you tell it like it is. Some tourist places just suck! Other review videos they all say everything is sooo good. Thanks for keeping it real!
Hi! Since you asked so I took the time to thoroughly watch your video to provide you with a sincere response. Having viewed numerous travel videos about Seoul, I must say you have done a good job! Your video is particularly beneficial for those interested in exploring the food scene. Keep up the good work! 加油! Best wishes on your journey as a RUclipsr.
Thank you for watching and supporting my small channel! Glad you found it useful. I have not been to Kobe Japan but would love to someday so thank you for the recommendation. Have to look it up now!
Mr. Jeff Tam:I hope you are planning to releases more new videos soon from Seoul, South Korea in January of 2024 @ these amazing restaurants, bars, hotels,street foods markets, etc. 2024❤❤❤
We enjoyed watching your video. Your video was very informative and of high quality. We are taking a cruise from Seoul to Tokyo and plan to arrive in Seoul 2-3 days earlier. We are both seniors and convenience is a primary consideration. Which hotel did you stay? What other hotels can you recommend in the same area? Thanks.
Thanks for the support and I am happy you found it useful. In terms of hotel, I stayed at the Aloft Hotel in Myeongdong. Although Myeongdong is quite "touristy", I personally enjoyed it there as a first-timer. I really liked the hotel as it is like a 1-2 min walk to the heart of the shopping & eating area of Myeongdong. There is a major bus stop right outside as well and subway station for getting around the city so everything is just super convenient. Also, they have laundry room on premise in case you want to get some done before hopping on your cruise. I would pull up Aloft Hotel on Booking.com or something and see what other hotels in the area may suit your needs based on hotel loyalty, price, space, etc. Hope this helps!
Cool , it looks really tasty , I like to suggest to you , when showing tasty looking food , why not talk to chef , and share how to ? And ingredients needed and how , list . So on your video link to your website to order the lists on how to cook at home ? Something to think about , travel and make extra income to pay for the trips .
Absolutely. I would totally try incorporating more food preparation / kitchen walkthroughs for future food travels at establishments that don’t mind sharing how they prep and if they have time since a lot of them are very busy. It’s a personal space thing and since I’m a small channel, most have shoo shooed me away 😉. Great opportunity for income as you suggest but honestly, my current stance for my channel is not really doing RUclips for money. I’m having fun just creating content and sharing my adventures. If the income continues to come, even better. Thank you so much for watching 🙏🏻
Hi Vivian - I stayed at the Aloft Hotel in Myeongdong. Spacious and had laundry machines available for use on one of the floors as well. Very convenient and right next to the subway station and bus stations. Hope this helps g.co/kgs/eW9NaS4
You originally korean blood And about the beef and I am mot korean but I think the reason the restaurant doesn't have the top top quality and he sell it in cheap so the restaurant have normal beef quality because the high quality beef cost more than 350 usd 🎉🎉🎉
As always to any of my viewers, I appreciate you watching my video and hopefully in its entirety. That being said, I have a couple of questions to what you say where additional info would be helpful to myself and future viewers. 1. How would a traveler know if a store is "Chinese owned"? Are there signs or is there some secret code only Koreans know about? It's a serious question in a way but I'm also a bit puzzled 2. Any suggestions or additional feedback on where do the locals go? My experience in the past tells me that people always say go where the locals go but then the actual locals don't really want more foreigners going there so it's a bit conflicting and also a challenge to find out.

DC 지역에 살고 있는 한국인입니다. 한국인보다 한국음식을 정말 맛있게 드시네요. 영상 보는동안 아주 즐겁고 행복했습니다. 빨리 한국으로 돌아가고 싶네요.

Really enjoyed your video, definitely going to follow many of your advices. Speaking of botanical gardens, have you visited the one in Kobe Japan?
Thank you for watching and supporting my small channel! Glad you found it useful. I have not been to Kobe Japan but would love to someday so thank you for the recommendation. Have to look it up now!

Bing su looks delicious 🤤
So so good!
Traditional Korean holiday foods generally do not use chili. Kimchi and tteokbokki did not contain chilis in the past.

Thank you for your video! In which month did you visit Seoul ? ☺️
We arrived in the month of October and the weather was quite pleasant. Not hot but starting to cool down quickly
Like your videos. From Durban
Thanks for watching!
@@fomoyolotravel You welcome
Beautiful
Thank you for watching and supporting my channel! 🙏🏻

detailed itinerary please?
Did you check out the details I included in the description? That might give you what you're looking for.
Meat appears burnt. Best places are recommended by natives and locals.
Yes at Maple Tree the meat was a bit on the burnt side for sure
오빠 너무 잘생겼어요 ㅎㅎ
관광객을 상대로 하는 가게는 절대 가지 마세요. 중국인 주인인 곳이 많고 가격이 비싸고 음식의 질이 낮습니다. 현지인들이 가는 곳을 가세요.
