    Thank you so so much for this video, sincerely. I am flying over there in about 2 months, for a month. I am travelling alone and whilst I do speak english and somewhat korean (studiying for the past 3 years), I get anxious in crowded big spaces. I know my brain can keep it cool in the moment, but being away for this long and alone, is a first so I’m guessing my anxiety will be going through the roof. Probably won’t be able to breathe until I finally get to my apartment. But again, this video has taken off some weight off my shoulders, thank you 🥹🫶🏻

      Will you be going to T1 or T2? T1 has the jjimjilbang (mentioned in the video). Would be a great place to relax, take a quick shower and enjoy a short nap without leaving the airport (and it's cheap)

And can U pay the train/subway/bus with your credit card or do you have to have a T money card to pay for transportation in Seoul? Thanks so much for your prompt response.

    Lately the International Arrivals customs lines have been very long waits..also maybe It’s time to change the sign to ‘non Korean passport holders’ Incheon Airport, instead of the word ‘Foreigners’ like when you arrive in Europe or N.America..’non EU passport holders’ etc

      It really is a chore. UA-cam has a function that allows me to blur faces pretty easily using their software, but it doesn't look so great. I just kinda do the best I can and hope nobody gets angry as Korea has some pretty strict laws about things like that (even if you're in a very public place like an airport).

      My advice is to 100% apply for a new passport right now. It's possible (or even likely) that your airline may not even let you board. And if they do, you may not be allowed to enter the country and will be sent back.
      Sorry for the bad news, but hopefully there is still time for you to get a new passport!

    • @TastesSEOULGood
      @TastesSEOULGood  22 дні тому

      You will also need the other documents mentioned such as valid passport with at least 6 months validity, return ticket, etc.
      For prescriptions, it shouldn't be a problem. However you should research to find out as some medications are prohibited. I would also make sure the prescriptions are in their original bottle, and have a prescription just in case. If they are simple things (like blood pressure or cholestrol or whatever) then you won't have any problems.

    Hey, when i went to Korea last year you needed a Q-Code (which you could still get at arrival but it was more convenient to do it before the flight) is that still needed and if not, do you need anything else? And my country doesn't need a K-ETA but I heard it is quicker to just get one beforehand. Can i still get one?

    • @TastesSEOULGood
      @TastesSEOULGood  15 днів тому +1

      The Q-code seems to change based off of where you're flying from. I heard someone coming from the UK had to fill one out, but others didn't. I think it depends if you have any outbreaks in your country.
      If you don't need a K-ETA, I don't see the purpose in spending money on one. I'm sure you can though.
