South Korea had been on my travel list ever since I fell in love with Korean dramas, and visiting Seoul for the first time in May 2025 was truly unforgettable. Celebrating my husbandβs birthday in full Joseon-era hanbok while exploring both modern and traditional neighbourhoods felt like stepping into a K-drama dream. From bustling markets to serene palaces, I packed an incredible amount into a short trip β and Iβm already planning my return to South Korea for more culture, food, and adventure.
