I have watched a lot of travel guides and you are the first person who talked about the facilities for wheelchair users. Although I am not a wheelchair user myself, I'm all for everyone having fun and comfort wherever they visit. You have my respect.

Ive been so stressed planning but this video has been the most helpful one if seen❤

[MyCoreano]

The best video info I ever seen about Incheon Airports!

[that.one_joey]

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 🥹🫶🏻

Important!!! Do not use Kakao Navigation it is only in Korean. Use Naver Map instead you can change to english what makes it easier.

[yum]

Best instruction video ever!! I also recommend Naver map because you can't use google map in S.Korea

I'm happy I came across you!! I'm a bluecollar worker in california and glad to see you dress relaxed!! Do I have to dress in korea like I'm a fancy person

The KTX goes right into Incheon Airport, at least the one that goes to Busan. We rode that from Busan to ICN on our last day and went straight to boarding our plane. very efficient system

Hi, I wanted to ask you if you recommend me to buy the Discover Seoul card or the T-money card...
Or do I need to buy both? I am a little bit confused 😕

[omaramrani]

Thanks for this video. Question : you said that for the bus you have to buy your ticket with you credit card. Can you use your t-money card too for your bus trip ?

[lisawilliams]
