About Us
Korea Seoul info is an English-language guide to everyday life, travel and culture in Korea, written for visitors, expats and anyone curious about the country.
Guidebooks tell you where to go. We try to explain how things actually work here: why Koreans use Naver Maps instead of Google Maps, what to buy at a convenience store, how to get around Seoul, and what surprises first-time visitors the most.
What we write about
- Modern Korea – technology, work culture, daily life and how Korean society is changing.
- Travel & Food – practical trip planning, neighborhoods, budget stays and what to eat.
- Culture – holidays, etiquette, traditions and pop culture.
- Korea Beauty – skincare, clinics and beauty trends.
Who we are
Korea Seoul info is run by SSJ with a small team of writers who live in Korea. We write from local experience and check facts such as prices, opening hours and rules against official sources when we can. Details in Korea change quickly, so please double-check anything time-sensitive before you travel.
Our editorial principles
- Useful first: every post should answer a real question a visitor might have.
- Honest: we are not paid to recommend places, and we say so clearly if that ever changes.
- Kept up to date: when information changes, we update the post.
Health and beauty articles are for general information only and are not medical advice. Please consult a qualified professional before any procedure.
