Why I Love South Korea

Writer's picture: Britney CabuhatBritney Cabuhat

I love South Korea because

  • Cheap and good food

    • Get a lot for a good price

      • Especially SNU cafeteria

        • Around 6000 Korean won (maximum price there) which is like around $4.60 US dollars

          • Lunch and dinner available

        • Cafeteria is also open to public, so often see people of all ages, I remember even seeing kids one time

  • A lot of convenience

    • Fast wifi everywhere, even busses and subway have wifi

    • Fast and cheap delivery for both food and items

      • Items often delivered next day

      • Food

        • Going back and forth (restaurant and back home) eating out can be tedious and slightly time consuming (such as getting ready and having to travel)

        • The delivery fee is very cheap and adds up similarly to the transportation fare of going to a restaurant and going back home

    • Transportation

      • Fast and cheap as well

        • Around a dollar

    • Has a lot of aesthetic scenery

      • Just very different looking from Hawaii

        • City like

        • Tall buildings

        • Common thought I had was that they really make sure no space is wasted

          • Almost like stores are very close together and stacked

      • Experience seasons

        • All 4 seasons happen in Korea

  • Always something you can do

    • A lot of things that Hawaii doesn’t offer as accessibly

      • Example, “DIY” places

        • Painting cafe

        • Pottery cafe

        • Make your own:

          • Perfume

          • Rings

          • Lipstick

          • Phone case

      • Much more

    • Felt the most safe, I didn't have to worry about the things we often worry about here in America

      • People don’t steal

      • No guns

    • Can see Korea artists WAY more easily

      • Good if you are a Korea artists fan

      • Saw like majority of the 4th generation K-pop groups

        • At the end of the year, there are events where multiple perform in that one event

          • Nice to just see them all in one go

      • There could also be free opportunities

        • Fansigns possible fanmeetings out in the open

          • Not officially meet face to face, but you can just show up to see them in real life

          • BLACKPINK fansign at IFC mall

          • Stray Kids fanmeeting at public park
