## Itinerary

### Day 1: Arrive in Seoul

Welcome to Seoul - Annyeonghaseyo! You've landed in South Korea's buzzing capital, where historic palaces meet futuristic skylines. Once you've settled into your accommodation, it's time to meet your travel crew and get excited for the journey ahead!

### Day 2: Palaces & Hanoks

Today's all about exploring the traditional heart of Seoul! We'll start at Gyeongbokgung Palace - one of Korea's grandest and most iconic. Next up, we'll stroll through a Hanok village to admire the charm of classic Korean homes. Then it’s over to Insadong Street for a relaxed afternoon of local shopping and tasty street food before hitting Seoul's nightlife in Hongdae!

### Day 3: DMZ Tour & Netflix Stars

This morning, we're heading north—right up to the edge of the Korean Peninsula—to the DMZ , the heavily guarded border that separates North and South Korea. You'll learn the history behind the division and even get a rare look across the line into the mysterious North. Once we're back in Seoul, we'll make our way to Gwangjang Market , featured in Netflix's 'Street Food Asia', where you can hunt down some of the show's foodie stars and dig into their famous dishes.

### Day 4: Travel to Jeonju, Cooking Class & Rice Wine Tasting

After breakfast, we'll say goodbye to Seoul (for now) and hop on the KTX - Korea's high-speed train - for a ride down to Jeonju , known for its beautifully preserved Hanok village. You'll have time to wander the traditional streets and soak in the old-world charm. Then it's time to roll up your sleeves for a hands-on cooking class, where you'll whip up and get to try classic dishes like bibimbap before sampling some local favourites like Korean rice wine and soju.

### Day 5: Busan, Coastal Highlights & Korean BBQ

Today, we're off to Busan - a stunning coastal city with serious charm! This afternoon, we will enjoy a coastal walk before hopping on the famous Haeundae Sky Capsule for panoramic views of the shoreline. In the evening, get ready for a proper Korean BBQ feast, followed by a taste of Busan's buzzing nightlife. Karaoke, anyone?

### Day 6: Taekwondo Class

Get ready to stretch and move - today's all about Taekwondo! Whether you're already a pro with flying, spinning kicks or a total beginner who's only seen them on TV, this class will have something for you. You'll learn the fundamentals of kicks and blocks, and by the end, you'll get to show off your skills by breaking some wooden boards!

### Day 7: Buddhist Temple Experience

Today offers a rare chance to immerse yourself in the Buddhist way of life. We'll take a guided tour of the temple, spend the night in traditional accommodations, join the monks for their prayer services, and enjoy the vegan meals they eat for dinner and breakfast. It's a peaceful break from the busy city pace - a perfect moment to reflect and recharge.

### Day 8: Gyeongju Hanok Village

Often called the "Museum without Walls," Gyeongju served as the capital of the ancient Silla Kingdom for over a millennium and is our last stop before heading back to Seoul. Packed with UNESCO World Heritage sites, we'll explore the area by bike, visiting tombs, pagodas, bridges, and palace ruins to fully experience its deep historical and cultural roots. To truly immerse ourselves, we'll spend the night in a traditional Hanok house, sleeping on floor mattresses with warm ondol underfloor heating during colder months. For the full cultural touch, we'll even try on traditional Hanbok attire and step into the past!

### Day 9: Travel Back to Seoul

It's time to return to Seoul, but there's still one last experience to enjoy - K-Pop, the cultural phenomenon that put Korea in the spotlight. Get ready to learn some moves from a professional instructor, and don't forget to film it for your friends! In the evening, we'll come together for a final dinner to celebrate the amazing journey we've shared.

### Day 10: Depart Seoul or Continue Your Travels

Your incredible 10-day journey wraps up today. If you're flying home, it's time to head to the airport. But if you're ready to keep the adventure going, you can extend your stay in Seoul or elsewhere in South Korea—with our support and the new friends you've made along the way. And if East Asia has captured your heart, why not keep exploring and join us in Japan?
