I want to travel to South Korea in January for about 2-3 weeks. I intend on spending as little time in Seoul/Busan/Jeju as possible and I enjoy hiking and wandering around small villages. For reference of what I like, I recently came back from Japan and did the Shimanami Kaido and hiked around Yakushima Island.Are there any winter festivals or events held in January I should consider? Should I consider skiing even though I've never done it before?
>>2904423The Hwacheon Sancheoneo Ice Festival has now become a world-renowned festival.
>>2904423>I want to travel to South Korea in January for about 2-3 weeksWhy the hell would anyone bring themselves to this hell? Korea winters are among the worst in the region barring north korea's lack of anything. Like maybe this year will be different because the amount of moisture but commonly Korea winters absolutely suck ass. I assume you plan to only get around via train/public transport which really caps out what fun things you can see.>Should I consider skiing even though I've never done it before?Ask yourself "should I risk running up a medical bill while abroad and injuring myself for no reason?"
>>2907567World's most cowardly faggot. >>2904423Skiing isn't dangerous. It's fun. There are probably some places you can reserve for a first time training experience. I myself did it a few years ago.
>>2907571Yeah dude going skii'ing in a country you might not understand the native language or what you are doing is amazing lmao. Especially in an Asian country like Korea where it's a clusterfuck on the slops because Koreans seriously don't know how to check their surroundings.Actual retard take
>>2907573You sound like the peckerplay bot who insists that the only valid reason for travel is getting your little weiner touched. Real Travelers are in the room, so kindly fuck off to your pudpuller containment thread.
January is a good time to go as most of the kiddies will off on holiday so a lot of people head down to the Phils or Vietnam on cheap holidays meaning it is usually pretty quiet around the country. in the winter time you should hit up one of the folk villages and do like a bed and breakfast with the wood heated ondol flooring. Hahoe outside Andong or in the old city area of Jeonju is really nice.
>>2908009He's really in your head isn't he.
>>2908009>don't know how to ski>Hmmm, seems like a great idea to go to a country where I don't speak the language to learn a semi-complicated sport which can lead to broken bones easily.Skiing isn't that complex but it is risky if you don't know how to do it why would you do it in some place like korea? At least Japan has a bunch of aussie cunts who do seasonal work in nagano to teach and help foreigners.
>>2910055>protip: bring your girlfriend so you will have lots of time alone to perfect your skiing while she helps the Aussies with their interior decorating.
>>2910055Koreans speak English much better than the average Japanese person. I don't even like Korea but I'll admit it's the most easy mode country in Asia for English speakers.
The south korean travel authorities are trying to psyop me into going by sending Korean women to my coomgram.
>>2910176Korean women don't like you (or men in general)
>>2910176Frankie Says Relax
>>2910124>Koreans speak English lol
>>2910195I know its why I wish they would stop recommending me korean pole dancers to jerk off too
I'm in Seoul right now. Staying in Korea a least a week, maybe longer. Contact me if (you) want to hang out.m762keox4@mozmail.comhttps://smp11.simplex.im/a#fH0FyX3TgH5sS0x5BD9NvEcdO3I1aZnpVFdg1eeuAFsWe can use a less autistic messenger after initial contact. Just don't want to share my permanent contact info in public.
>>2910124Singapore, Philippines or Taiwan have way better English skills
>>2904423People say I look Italian. Will I be able to have fun in Korea?
>>2912159Cool. Go enjoy skiiing in Singapore and the Philippines and fuck off.
>>2912180Ok mate, I willhttps://www.snowcity.com.sg/
>>2910195This is some /pol/ third world incel bullshit isn't it? My friend went and somehow got laid a lot despite being a full fucking retard back home.
>>2912198holy shit that retard will have nothing to say nowyou can even go skiing in dubai
>>2912198Wow. Looks incredible. You can have this and the rest of us will go anywhere but Singapoor
>>2912199Usually it's the /pol/cels who think going to one of the most sexless feminist countries on earth willl get them laid because theyre a 320lb unemplyable khhv aryan GOD
>>2912230Incels dont even try to get laid they just cry nonstop about imaginary problems
>>2912236Virgins and virgin adjacents are usually the ones obsessed with sex
>>2912230>320lb Giga-body builder.>unemplyable Adventurers do "side quests".>khhv Cant kiss with a battle helmet/mask, cant hold hands when wielding a two-handed battle axe.>aryan Biblical Jew as Adam.>GODSonship.
>>2912230>indian posting hoursI've never been to worst Korea but everyone I know who has says it's life on easy mode to get laid as a westerner. The over the top feminism thing is a joke this retarded website bot-promotes which doesn't match reality at all. Yeah there's like 100 of them yelling loudly and being retards, so the fuck what, who cares.
frhilarious seeing white incels get angry over the suggestion that some country's girls might not fuck them
>>2912230I'm a chubby nerd and I matched with a hot korean chick while in the airport and had a date confirmed for later that night by the time I was on the train. I've literally never been in an easier country.
>>2904423Korea is cold as fuck in January. The weather is nothing like Japan; in January dry arctic wind blows from Siberia and it can hit -15C. It is cold as fuck and you do not want to spend much time outside.The only survivable place is Jeju island, where it's around 5C during the day, but winter there is cloudy / windy / stormy. There are far better places to be in January. Japan is warmer since the Sea of Japan moderates temperatures and it's around 5C without the wind. Southern China is nice but can be chilly (10-15C).Also it gets dark very early, around 3pm. I have no idea why anyone would willingly visit Korea during January.
