$22 First Class On Korea's Fastest Bullet Train - KTX Train Korea
Today, I am leaving Seoul and travel to another place in Korea. The city where I am heading to is not a touristy town at all. There are only 2 hotels available on booking or agoda, but I am still very excited to go there. This is my first time taking a train in Korea and my first time to really leave the Seoul area. Join me on the journey in Korea's bullet train, which is the fastest of the country. Korean bullet trains are quite famous and are popular high-speed trains. But how good and comfortable is a ride with them? Let's find out!

As a Korean, I have never seen a foreigner who goes to Sejong for sightseeing. Actually, I've never even seen a Korean doing that either.
Been there a few times and actually love Sejong. My favorite city in Korea 😊
I think he is very satisfied with the city, he said that the city is beautifully constructed and, which is unusual for Korean cities, full of greenery. he said that he does not expect a tourist offer because the city is new. But the city is beautifully arranged and full of greenery and still surrounded by greenery definitely has a future as a super modern city to live in.
Sightseeing is not the same thing as exploring. Just like a tourist is not the same thing as an explorer.
i like the idea of going to the oldest place in korea and then going to the newest.
Sorry Ken but you struggling to find the hotel entrance was hilarious
I laughed so much watching this episode
Safe travels and thank you for your informative videos!
I love how friendly and helpful the locals were throughout your journey! It's always heartwarming to see such kindness in a new place. Did you find any hidden gems in the city once you arrived?
Korea city is very clean.韩国很美，很现代化
Nice video bro❤很喜欢这种冷门旅游地的视频，让我了解到中韩之间相似和差异之处
Yes, it's a T- money card. With that you can use all de transports in Korea( metro and bus) and you can charge the card in the convenience stores and metro station. You have to pass de card when you enter de bus and also wen you left de bus
Wow interesting, this planned city. Cannot wait for the next video. Be well.
Sejong video will be out next Friday ✌️
13:40 Sorry you couldn't find the entrance but the sign on the 1st floor just before you took the elevator that only went up to the 3rd floor, showed a map of where you were, and where the hotel entrance was. It was showing you how to get to the hotel entrance. It is not a touristy city so you shouldn't expect English signs. Next time recommend using google photo translator to see Korean signs in English. Really enjoy watching your videos and I hope you have a wonderful time in Korea😊
Exploring Korea's unique cities is a true meaning and brave choice to travel. I enjoyed watching it. Finding the wrong entrance to the hotel was a ghostly fun feeling and a fun happening. I look forward to the next fun video. Thank you.
Thanks for watching 🙏
Korea city is very clean.

I felt a great joy when you wandered around without being able to find a hotel. It was very entertainment. Thank you for the good video.
약간 덜렁대는 스타일이 귀여움 ㆍ즐거운 여행되세요
상업구역 사람이 쓰는 엘리베이터를 타셨군요 거기는 3층까지만 작동합니다 ㅎㅎ
13:29 15:25 To the left of the elevator button, there is a Korean sign indicating that the restaurant is only open up to the 3rd floor. The entrance and elevator appear to have been used only on the restaurant floor. Because Sejong City is the administrative capital, not many foreign tourists visit, so it may not be fun for tourists. Still, it's a well-planned, clean, and quiet city, so I hope you'll have a new adventure.
That is not how well planned works. And it is not the first time he gets confused in SK. You can't even say it is his fault when he have been in many different countries and haven't faced such situations.
The other lift only goes 1F~3F because it is for the mall only. for 4F you need to use hotel lift.
WOW . Welcome Sejong. Very pleased and suprised to see u here, cuz I`m living in Sejong now and I visited that hotel in 2 July for business !!!! I hope u to have great time here😊
Hi and good evening, Ken and all. Am joining you for the journey.....wow, how excited l am to experience Korea bullet train virtually 😂😃
You should REALLY start using a translator app.
You wouldve found the hotel entrance right away if you had used a translation app.
내가 세종시에살기시작한것이 벌써 10년
계획된 도시이지만 깨끗하고 정말좋은 식물원과 호수공원 도서관 등 쾌적한 도시지요 잘오셨어요 세종오는줄알았더라면 점심이라도? 대접하고푼 엄마 마음 ? 근처엔 대전과 공주가 가까이있지요 아무튼 좋은 여행이었기를바랍니다.
Guten tag. Herr ken.
The first elevator you saw had a sign indicating a private entrance to the hotel, but it was in Korean so you couldn't recognize it.
There were directions everywhere, but they were all in Korean so I guess you didn't recognize them. In my opinion it is clearly a lack of consideration from the hotel.
In Korea, since the 2000s, mixed residential and commercial buildings in one building have become popular.
In these complex buildings, the separation of residential and commercial areas was considered very important, and architectural elements such as separate entrances and restricted movement between each other were added.
It is very likely that this is the reason why you cannot go upwards from the commercial area on the 3rd floor.
9:00 / The bus card you purchased cost 4,000 won. Perhaps you paid 10,000 won at a convenience store, and the clerk was charged 6,000 won put in you card. After then you paid 2,000 won for bus.
Also, please check if there is a purple mark called [T-money] on the card. If it has the mark, the card can be used on public transportation nationwide.
You can charge mileage to the card at a convenience store and use it. In most taxis equipped with a payment module (even machines like the subway vending machine that refused you on the first day), you can pay by tagging your card.
I really enjoy your travel videos.
If you are staying in Korea for an extended period of time and exploring the normal areas of life rather than big cities or tourist destinations, communication will often be an issue.
If you have time, I recommend learning [Hangul]. Even if you don't know the meaning of a word, just a few hours are enough to simply memorize and learn the alphabet.
These days, Korean often uses pronunciation of foreign languages directliy. If you could read the word [호텔(hotel)], you would have been able to find the hotel lobby more easily.
I will continue to follow your journey. ^^b
Thank you 😊

It's indeed a very smooth bullet train journey. Glad that you managed to reach Sejong safe and sound. Yeah, l haven't heard of Sejong before so this'll be a great opportunity for me to tag along with you again. Oh gosh, how stressful it's to find the entrance to the hotel 😂 Anyway, thanks for the room tour. As always, l loved watching this video. Another fantastic time spent with great content maker "Ken" Thanks a bunch and cheers, Ken.

Hi~ ^^ when will you go to Busan? If you go to Busan,,don't forget the mt. 황령산 for the beautiful panoramic views of Busan~good luck~😅😅
13:37 That post says 'This elevator is for shopping malls only. For the Hotel guests, use other elevator only for Hotel' in Korean.
어휴 답답해 죽을뻔😅😅
I would have called the hotel
엘리베이터 4층을 F로 표기돼 있어서 몰랐을듯 ㅋㅋ 어 4층이 없네? ㅋㅋ
Btw, you should try the motels/love hotels if you wanna save money. They are everywhere and less than half of what u are paying.
Still clean and well equipped.
nice vid. thank you so much.
Great video! I have learned more about Korea
13:37 Floor plan gave you a clue.
post more korea videos!! 😄

8:30 Among the types of transportation cards, there are cards issued at stations and can be used only for transportation, and there are cards issued at convenience stores that can be used as both transportation cards and prepaid cards. Cards with a T-money sticker sold at convenience stores can be used at T-money affiliated convenience stores, subway stations, street vendors, and T-money affiliated ATMs. - The charging limit is 1,000 won to 90,000 won per charge, and the maximum amount that can be charged to one card is 500,000 won.
It is so interesting that tourists went to Sejong City. Foreigners who go to Sejong City will mostly be people to perform official duties related to the Korean government. Therefore, most of the hotels in Sejong City are only used by Koreans. If a foreigner uses it, a Korean will guide. Where you first wandered around was instructed on how to find the entrance to the hotel in Korean. And Sejong is the name of a Joseon Dynasty king drawn on your 10,000 won bill. It is called King Sejong. He is a favorite king of Koreans who made Hangul and achieved various scientific innovations. One more thing: Koreans do not travel to Sejong City either. You really seem like a unique traveler.
수많은 도시중에 왜 하필 세종에 간건지 모르겠지만

@@KenAbroad 맞아요! 그게 바로 즉흥여행의 묘미지요~~
개인적으로도 유명한곳보다 덜 알려진곳을 찾아다니는 분들 영상이 더 구경할게 많음 👍 👍
13:40 In Korean the sign reads: "This elevator is only for the shopping mall. It is convenient for guests to the hotel (front desk, restaurant) to use the hotel entrance."
This will explain the absence of the 4th floor on that elevator.
you got it, high attention
Then it should be in english as well no!
@@lahiru4307 While even a very brief translation as simple as "not hotel elevator" can help, to be fair it shouldn't be expected in a city that does not usually cater to foreign tourists. Sejong is inhabited by mostly domestic civil servants and serves as a de facto administrative capital.
답답해서 암 걸릴뻔😅😅
@@lahiru4307Should use google translator or something. There are lots of apps to help you travel these days. Do western country hotels have signage in Korean? I don't think so.
Grab some sandwiches in the 'Paris baguette' which is franchise bakery shop. The quality is way better than convenient store.
12:37 In Korea, there are people who cannot speak English at all or who are a bit shy and scared. ^^:
I'm sorry, but I also run away when foreigners ask.ㅜㅜ
When asking something, it's better to say "jeogiyo~, igseukyujeumi~ (Hey~, Excuse Me)" first. ^^
Actually a bit funny, at 17:57 the sign reads "Hotel lobby next to 7 Eleven". Maybe they want you to have another sandwich... (You can always find really nice and clean toilets at the stations). You should try to use the camera and Google Translate to read the signs.

18:20 She said you are cute!
The KTX train you took is the 3rd fastest train in Korea, and the fastest is the KTX Cheongryong train on the far right at 2:20 in the video.
Since the two trains were put into service 20 years apart, their interiors and exteriors are very different in design and condition. The train that was put into service later is in much better condition, so I recommend you take the KTX Cheongryong next time.
I am glad that you found the hotel, after the long search. I look forward to your next vlog.
한국에서는 엘리베이터에 대부분 4층이라 표시를 안하고 F층이라 표시를 합니다 ㅎㅎㅎ 참고 하세요
The KTX Train is a kind of the french TGV ( and it's not because I am french, but I lived in Korea when they asked Alstom to come , a few of my friends stayed a few years to work here. I think people do not go to this 'new' city for visiting....maybe you are the only one, héhé. Thanks for sharing. The episode of the hotel was funny😃
Sejong city is a government department city, designed not to replace capital city but to relocate all the government agencies and organizations to this new city, most people go there are public workers and government officials. These hotels are mostly catered for government officials going to Sejong for few days for either attend meetings, seminars and training.
Love your video's ❤❤❤ Ken 😊
This isn’t actually the fastest train in Korea, there’s a newer generation of the KTX which was made to replace the oldest generation of KTX, and it can go faster. It’s like the ICE 3 neo replacing the ICE 1.
Sorry fo your confusing. Actually, 13:40 The pannel explains about how to eccess to hotel entrance with the map in details. 현위치 means You are here location. You just missed out. 17:56 it is also sign to let you know the direction of entrance.
impressed you visited Sejong. some say it's a boring city but hope it wasn't too bad.
More about sejong in the next video ✌️
The reason why fighter planes fly in Sejong City is because there is an airport and an air base in nearby Cheongju City
P.S. Cheongju City made the world's first metal type capital!
My wife and I decided to take the bullet train from Seoul to Busan. We also road first class. Very quiet train at 300 KPH (186 MPH). We went round trip in one day and took a bus tour of Busan. The next year we were there, we took our family from Seoul to Daejong to O'World, a theme park.

Nah she said "you're welcome"
What a confusing experience you had upon your arrival in this new township.Glad that you finally managed to locate the hotel.I agree with you that they should placed the signages in a more conspicuous spot.Definitely looking forward to this new introduction of the city to us.Enjoying your vlogs Ken.👍💕🇲🇾
You are so impressive in your efforts to understand Korean policies as well.
it is funny that you talked about it not being easy to find, he just smiled and didn't say anything, the other recepcionist also smiled and that was it lol. No one really cared. Why they would have the same information in an elevator that doesn't go to 4th floor. Glad you are just a foreigner with a good vibe that didn't press the issue further.
아이구, 호텔 찾느라 고생 많이 하셨어요. 한국은 어디에서든 잘 모르겠으면 아는 사람 나타날 때까지 그 동네 사람 붙잡고 물어 보면 대부분 친절하게 잘 가르쳐 주십니다. 여기가 맞는지 확신이 안 서면 (아는 사람 나올 때까지 ^^ ) 계속 지나는 사람 붙잡고 물어 보세요 ^^
Nice vlog Ken.. lost in transit 😅 I thought you will not find the entrance 😂.. very interesting vlog this time. I like it ❤
Thanks for watching 🙏
Wow. I've never seen a tourist going to sejong citi
I think the Korean people are the friendliest and helpful of all.
This is like watching Germany losing to S.Korea in World Cup 😂😂😂

How do you know 🤔
Are you Ken’s mom
@@KenAbroad i got your mom's energy
As a korean I would be also confused to find a hotel entrance. They shouldn’t put the sign of the 4th floor hotel entrance at the elevator which goes only to the 3rd floor.
The train station is huge. Yr first class seat is nice n spacious. I was virtually looking for the entrance of the hotel. I got dizzy seeing u walking here n there, up n down just for the entrance of the hotel. The signage to the entrance is placed at a less conspicous position. Shall wait for the next video on this town. 🙏🤔

Seoul Station is not that big because there's other terminal stations for different lines e.g. if you're traveling from south-west to Seoul, your train's last stop will be Yongsan - which is about 15 minute metro ride from Seoul. If you are traveling from south-east to Seoul, on the other hand, your train will NOT stop on Yongsan but it will stop at Seoul. Of course there's some exceptions here and there but that's the general rule, which was introduced to use the railroad within Seoul more efficiently.

This video should be renamed as lost finding best western hotel
I enjoyed watching your video and felt sorry for you when you couldn't get on the bus by paying cash at first and couldn't find the entrance to the hotel. The hotel should've put the signs in English as well. And Please don't expect all Koreans can communicate in English. When you want some information you need in foreign country, it would be better to ask in their own language. You always can use translate app, can't you? And I hope you weren't offended by the two young ladies' giggle when they showed the way to the hotel entrance. They felt a bit shy and they thought you were attractive. That's the reason why they giggled. So please feel complemented instead. I like your way of filming. very informative and down to earth.
Please use a translation service like Papago. Not all countries require English to be used
And speak quietly when using public transportation. You have to know the vibe. That's the sense
and The elevator you took appears to be for building employees. So you wouldn't have been able to go to the 4th floor. Actually Hotel's only fault was that there were no English signs. There would have been no problem if the Korean instructions had been interpreted using the Google app. Sejong City is not a tourist city, so the hotel may not have been interested in foreign guests. Anyway, it's unfortunate, but if you think about it more calmly, everything happens for a reason.
and Sejong City is not a new capital, but a city where some administrative functions have been relocated.
Good to see you experience new things. But most people would easily use google translate but you seem to like to walk around then video it as if it’s someone else’s fault. Using google translate would have made finding the lobby quicker.
First thing to do at the airport is make a T card
You can get an app on your phone to show the train speed
Using the translating app would have solved everything 😀 assuming what signs say is not ideal
Great sharing. Thanks Ken. 👍👍👍😍😍😍
13:41 Just FYI, the sign is informing the location of the elevator going to the hotel lobby. It’s in Korean, though.

Sejong City is a new city, so there are not many Koreans, so the infrastructure is good and it will be good for foreigners moving there!

The hotel is a part of the combination building for the Hotel and Commercial Building, and you used the elevator for the commercial building, not for the hotel. There must have been another elevator for the hotel. Sorry for your difficulties and hard time for carrying the luggage. There elevators are intentionally separated so that the hotel guests should not interfere into the residential part of the building and the residents should not interfere with the hotel business. Such combination buildings were designed so that the building can be used for multi purposes as the hotel business may be un-predictable.
I don't understand Korean but
At 13:31 you can see the levels that the elevator service beside the buttons
13:39 the poster(?) has a map and it has a red dot, logically the red dot would mean "you are here" and the direction arrows should mean how to get to the hotel lobby
But tbf, this is after I have finished the video and had knowledge that that elevator was not the right one.
Anyways, I hope that you stay and explore longer in Korean, the people seems really nice!
Also, I saw a video by RealLifeLore ruclips.net/video/lmoZ_W4WjW0/видео.html a week ago that Koreans might be going extinct if the low birth rate persists but tbf I also wouldn't want to have kids if I were to be an average Korean. It's tough with long working hours when you can't afford so many things
If you have food flu, go to any pharmacy and tell them your symptom and you can get generic medicine without prescription. Or buy 정로환 (jeong ro hwan). I take this medicine with me whenever i travel.
