I’m heading off to Seoul in a week’s time, with a couple of days in Busan too. I have made a list of things to do and see, but just checking if anyone here has any good recommendations they can share? Would like to see a gig or two there if anyone knows any decent (smallish) venues?
Any decent veggie/vegan restaurants or cafes suggestions would be very welcome too!
I lived in Korea for a while, here are a few Busan recommendations.
Gamcheon culture village
Bosudong book street
For live music I saw some great Korean punk bands at this place https://maps.app.goo.gl/UCnkr3Gj51Tx8hVE8, it’s in KSU area, you might be able to stumble upon some good music in other bars around the same area.
Jagalchi fish market is interesting but maybe not so much if vegan.
Korea is a tough place to be vegan/veggie… Things that sound ok on a menu like a tofu soup can turn out to be cooked in a pork broth
Just remembered this vegan restaurant in Seoul which is good.
This looks great, thanks so much!
