Anyone boarded in South Korea?
No, but I’ve seen a few commercials on TV lately. I’d be interested to hear form anyone who’s been.
And I’d be interested in goin!!!!!
Ditto
My wife was there recently but not during winter..
The cost of living there is UNBELIEVABLY cheap, so low food and transport costs means this would be a low cost destination…
So…........... are ya sayin that it’s your shout, anti?????

That’s what it sounds like to me…..
I have been to Seoul, in the winter in fact, and was intending on getting out there and riding for a day, but decided against it.
Now this was a few years back, from what I recall there were buses that picked up in downtown and took the trip up to the nearby resorts. There’s a couple within an hour or so of the city, and there’s stuff further away, around 2-3 hours. Yeah, real specific, sorry I don’t have any more detailed information. The crowds at the resorts seemed pretty intense.
If you want ???, I can point you in the right direction, though.

Just having a peep at South Korea….

or about $50 at YongPyong:
Anyways, got all the links from here:
Ski ski ski
I would actually be really interested in going this season or next if it is that cheap, just to try it out!!!
condition wise
better than Australia but you would rather go Japan.
price wise
cheaper than Japan overall but its dependant on how luxurious you want to go
Resorts
heard many are fairly close to major cities = busy weekends
consensus for Korea is you go there for the experience/culture of Korea as opposed to Japan (cause japow is more consistent/better condition..thru my research **havent been before just researched** thus far)
will be heading there within the next couple of years regardless
I would be keen to do another Japan or Korea trip in the near future (2012/2013 winter) depending how this trip goes and how my finances are post Japan this Feb lol.
