mary-nguyen Posted January 18, 2019 Author Share Posted January 18, 2019 Thank you! I hear the transportation system is good as well so shopping should be a breeze! I wish my friends could make it so I'm hoping someone here would be down to shop during the day Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
purrrina Posted January 18, 2019 Share Posted January 18, 2019 Yes transportation is super easy (subways and taxis). If you can try to join a kakao group you can usually find some people who are free and want to hang out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mary-nguyen Posted January 18, 2019 Author Share Posted January 18, 2019 That's what I've been trying to do! But I guess May isn't a popular time to go Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rosemist Posted February 13, 2019 Share Posted February 13, 2019 I am going alone to SK for the first time alone too around May 6th! I am very nervous but I heard it is very safe. I am doing a lot of facial surgery but if you do not mind a really swollen friend, we can go shopping and together after a couple days of recovery for me!

ellenseoul18 Posted February 28, 2019 Share Posted February 28, 2019 Just confirmed my dates! I will be in Seoul from 5/20-5/30. I probably won’t be getting surgery this time, but I will be going to Banobagi for skincare. Maybe we can go eat or shop! Also, is there a kakao group?

ladybugz Posted March 2, 2019 Share Posted March 2, 2019 I think the most frustrating part of the experience is definitely the language barrier. If you need to go somewhere by cab, it’s incredibly difficult to hail a cab unless you know the language. At least, that was my experience.

song32 Posted March 3, 2019 Share Posted March 3, 2019 Hey Mary! I'm going to Seoul by myself in May also. None of my friends could make it since I added this trip on at the last minute. I'll be in Seoul from May 20-24 getting consultations for face liposuction at a few places (365mc, Banobagi, Evita, and Dream). From what I saw Seoul is easily navigable for foreigners. I planned on taking the train in from the airport, leaving my bags at the hotel, and hitting up the shopping center that evening. I have a few consultations lined up the next day and hopefully getting the procedure done that day. If I can't find the right clinic then I just planned on spending the next few days eating, shopping, and sight seeing. Ellen, if I don't end up finding a good place for face liposuction I was going to go to Banobagi for the All in One therapy treatment (3 days). If you girls are interested in meeting up let me know!
