thanks for the video, i have a question, for a tourist who doesnt understand korean language, is it hard to navigate and roam around? are most of the signs and transportation signs in korean language? planning to travel next yr on a solo trip. thanks
Hi! Honestly, I would say the bigger cities in Korea are very easy to get around without speaking Korean. Most signages are definitely english-friendly and I would just recommend downloading Naver map and you shouldn’t have issues getting around. Now if you’re going to the super countryside smaller cities, I can’t guarantee but places like Jeju, Seoul, and Busan are pretty straightforward. I recommend catching up on the rest of my Korea travel vlogs for some tips that may help you!
Really enjoyed your travel vlog! Which month exactly was this trip of yours? We will be in Jeju on first of September. Hope the weather will be fine and not so rainy.
Thank you for the video, it's very informing. Would you recommend visiting Jeju City when only having 3 days on Jeju island? Considering we also visit Seoul.
I'm really enjoying these back to back travel vlogs. That flower field is so pretty. Your grandma makes 90 look soo good 💪🏼🙌🏼💓 P.S I think you'd make a great tour guide, you sure do your research so we don't have too lol 😊
How far in advance did you have to make your flight reservations from the mainland to Jeju. Do you have a preferred airline? I'll be traveling there in April. Also, I have been studying Korean for almost 6 months. I am making sure that I have common politeness phrases down and cultural norms, but without someone to practice with, I'm very concerned about the language barrier and difficulties communicating. Should I be worried? I can read and ask questions, it's the responses I might get that worry me. The translation part is really difficult . I do have Papago.
We took Jeju Air (a lost-cost airline) and I booked in advance from the states about 6 months before. Jeju Air isn't my personal favorite but if you're looking for something cheap (especially b/c the flight is very short), it's up to you. I would definitely recommend the bigger airlines because it really ends up being "you get what you pay for." Honestly don't think the language barrier would be too difficult - Jeju and just Korea in general is very tourist-friendly. You can also use Papago or Google Translate and I think you should be more than fine!
So helpful thank you!! But could you make the text a bit bigger? Especially the price ones? Those are helpful but hard to see 😂😂 THe nature and the hikes look so beautiful there! Hope to visit one day!
Hi! Thank you for the video :) I am actually travelling to Jeju in early April and wondered: are the restaurants okay with solo travelers/eaters? I know that some restaurants in Seoul only let you in if you are two people or more, so I just wanted to see if Jeju had that same norm so I don’t go through awkward situations 😂, thank you!
@@tomeepmeep For foreigners, it’s probably better to have cash in hand for small bites at street markets & food trucks! Many Koreans use their own system where they send cash over digitally (since most people don’t carry around cash anymore) but since we don’t have something like that, physical cash was helpful.
Hi !! Thank you for watching :-) Since we went with a big group, we were only going to big family restaurants but there are SO many options for solo travelers/ eaters. If you’re unsure, I’d search on Naver in advance. There are so many small restaurants and cafés in Jeju that makes it great for solo travelers - we obviously couldn’t go to those bc we were such a big group so our options were completely different than if we had gone with a much smaller group or if it was just me and my husband. Hope this helps !!
I didn’t include because there weren’t direct translations on Google Maps for these placed - Did you have a specific one you were interested in? I can help locate them!
The information for the company is actually in the video when we first arrive! It was very reasonable based on how many people he was driving and the amount of time he spent with us (I remember it was around $450-$500)
영상올린거 잘봤어 가족들과함께 즐겁운 시간이었었는데 그립다 다시 이런 좋은기회가올지~할머니께서도 함께여행가고 이곳저곳 다니셨을때가 그립다고하셨어 좋은추억만들어줘서 고맙다 홧팅❤❤
사랑합니당🫶🤍

@@OfficialNacho The airport is where Jeju City is so you’ll be there anyways but recommend Aewol and Seogwipo more !!

Follow up question; for the food trucks like the hallabong ice cream, do they take only cash or card is okay? Thank you!

some of your restaurant only display in korean and doesnt have any english name. How is non-korean ppl going to read and find this place?

Google translate? You can use your phone to take a photo of the screen
Could you please tell where the location for that black pig pork?

May i ask for the contacts for your hired driver. Was it expensive?
The information for the company is actually in the video when we first arrive! It was very reasonable based on how many people he was driving and the amount of time he spent with us (I remember it was around $450-$500)
Does jeju requires visa for tourist?
Nope!! Just considered visiting Korea :-)
How did you book you private driver?
We found him on Naver !!
@@CrystallChoHow much was it to have a private driver for 3 days? I'm going in April and want to visit Jeju for a few days!
