Hey lollipop, Seoul is very cold at that time of year: expect lows of O degrees Centrigrade (that's 32 Fahrenheit), and highs of 10 degrees. Dress warm!
if you go to seoul in january
there will be much cooler
guy ~ in december there will be a lot of snow fall and under 0 degree
p/s if you were there remember to enjoy their Korean style steamboat (quite
similar with chinese steamboat)
it will be very comfortable for having steamboat in korea winter
since you all advise... korea at the moment is winter time.... and Beebee advise to try the korean steamboat...
i heard Dongdaemun Market... lots of things to shop . and any advise for foods that i can try within that area?? how about others places such as Nami Island, Everland.....
We are going to Korea for the first two weeks of October ... what can we expect for weather? Also wondering if anyone knows of any orphanages that we can visit and give a gift in kind donation?
just came from seoul korea from December 27-january 1 2010. The weather was really very cold. Very much different from the US. Quite windy in Seoul that"s why the weather was very cold . The temperature when I was there was something -21 degrees C. Be prepared to keep your self warm.I stayed at Holiday Inn Seongbuk for the 2nd time around because people at the front desk are very helpful to assist you.Try checking accuweather seoul korea or weather.com seoul korea to know if it is going to snow or rain showers. My kids had fun. There was a snow shower last Dec 27. We also went skiing at yongpyong. We might go back this December 2010 but this time skiing at yongpyong.
To lamak, Yongpyong ski resort is the most popular ski resort because of the korean telenovela Winter Sonata. However, according to our Korean tour guide Yang Ji Resort is much nicer and the slopes are quite bigger and longer. It is a little bit farther from YongPyong.Maybe will try it this december 2010. My family is already planning to stay at any ski resort for 5 days and 4 nights. However, expect that things in Korea are expensive.Try googling yongpong or Yang ji or Phoenix Ski Resort seoul korea or even Jisan resort. If i remember it right Yongpyong has 31 slopes. In a way these infos may help you alot.If you have time try checking this website: http://www.seoulcitytour.net.then look for the ski tour.As for the weather try checking every now and then accuweather or weather.com seoul korea.

Dear Cielo, Are you from the Philippines? If you are, these are the documents needed : Application form which you can download it at their website.1 pc passport size colored picture (recent),Passport original(if you still have your old passports with all your past travels, submit it when you applied. This is very important.,Photo Copy of passport First page,Photocopy of US,New Zealand,Canada, Japan or countries that requires visa,Employment certificate (Photocopy),Bank certificate (Original),ITR (Income tax return (Photocopy). Once accomplished, you may go to Korean Embassy at 18th flr The Pacific Star Bldg 1226 Makati Ave. Makati City. Tel 632-811-6139.When you apply, you have to be there early bec, they just accept application from 9-11 am only. The processing takes 3 days and it is gratis.No interviews,just give your application together with the documents mentioned. Korea is an expensive place. The food is expensive, the taxi is expensive, shoppings quite expensive. In other words, everything is expensive.If you've been to Japan, Korea is less expensive than Japan, and more expensive than Singapore.But the place especially Seoul is very nice to visit. The best season is Spring time.That is April. Because the weather is just right. Not too warm nor too cold.Very few speak English. You have to play by your ears if you are already lost.You can tell a korean if he knows how to speak English. Just by the looks. I hope ,these things will be able to help you.

Hi all, i will be going to Korea this November 22 2010, hv doubts what kind of clothes to bring there, must I bring a down jacket there? Anyone, can advise?
If you take a look at the weather forecast on sites such as weather.com you will be able to find out about the specific weather forecast for this time of year. I think it has already snowed once in Seoul already this month and so you should definitely be prepared for cold weather when you go there. There are lots of activities that you can do in Seoul and some parts of the city, like Gangnam, sometimes have snow machines that create snow on the sidewalks. There is also a great ice-skating rink close to Seoul Station. Seoul is a great place to visit during the winter as the city really gets into the winter spirit.
hi!we are planning to visit seoul & nami island this coming autumn.may we know the best month for autumn season where we could see the leaves changin its colors.thanks!
Would you please tell me how to take a subway from Lotte Hotel to Dongdaemun? I haven't used a subway before but would like to give it a try this time. Thank you!
