Who We Are
Welcome to the heart of Travel to Seoul! We’re a passionate group of travel enthusiasts, Seoul explorers, and storytellers united by one goal: to bring the magic of Seoul, South Korea, to travelers around the globe. Based on our love for this incredible city, our organization is more than just a website—it’s a community, a resource, and a bridge connecting you to the wonders of Seoul. Whether you’re planning your first trip or returning for more, we’re here to make your journey seamless, exciting, and unforgettable.
How It All Began
The roots of Travel to Seoul trace back to a shared obsession with Seoul’s vibrant energy. It started with a small team—friends who’d fallen under the city’s spell during their own travels. We’d swap stories over coffee about sipping soju in Itaewon, marveling at the hanbok-clad guards at Changdeokgung Palace, and navigating the maze of stalls at Namdaemun Market. Those conversations sparked an idea: why not build something bigger? Why not create an organization dedicated to helping others discover Seoul the way we had—authentically, joyfully, and with a touch of local flair? From that humble beginning, Travel to Seoul was born.
Our Team: The Seoul Dreamers
Behind Travel to Seoul is a diverse crew of wanderers, writers, and Seoul superfans. We’ve got foodies who’ve tasted every variation of kimchi jjigae, photographers who’ve chased the perfect shot of N Seoul Tower at dusk, and planners who’ve mastered the art of crafting budget-friendly itineraries. Some of us are expats who’ve called Seoul home, others are frequent visitors who can’t stay away, and a few are locals who know the city’s hidden corners like the back of their hands. Together, we pool our experiences to bring you insider knowledge you won’t find in standard guidebooks. We’re not just an organization—we’re your travel companions, cheering you on as you explore Seoul.
Our Values: Passion, Authenticity, and Adventure
What drives us? It’s simple. We’re passionate about Seoul—not just its postcard-perfect landmarks, but its quirks, its chaos, and its quiet moments. We believe in authenticity, sharing real stories and practical tips from our own adventures, whether it’s haggling for souvenirs in Dongdaemun or finding a cozy café in Seongsu-dong. And above all, we’re fueled by a spirit of adventure—encouraging you to step off the beaten path, try that spicy tteokbokki, or join a K-pop dance class in Hongdae. Our organization is built on these values, and they shape everything we do.
What We Do
At Travel to Seoul, our mission goes beyond running a website—it’s about creating a movement. We scour Seoul for the best experiences, from rooftop bars with skyline views to tranquil temples tucked in the mountains. We partner with trusted travel companies to bring you exclusive deals on flights, hotels, and tours, ensuring your trip is as affordable as it is amazing. We write guides, share recommendations, and dig up the latest trends—like where to find the hottest K-beauty products or the newest viral dessert in Garosu-gil. Every piece of content, every suggestion, is crafted with one thing in mind: helping you experience Seoul in a way that feels personal and true to you.
Why Seoul Matters to Us
Seoul isn’t just a city to us—it’s a living, breathing inspiration. It’s the blend of old and new that keeps us captivated: the futuristic buzz of Gangnam contrasting with the timeless serenity of Jongmyo Shrine. It’s the people—the street vendors who greet you with a smile, the subway performers who turn a commute into a concert. It’s the flavors, the sights, the sounds that make every visit feel like a new chapter. Our organization exists because Seoul deserves to be celebrated, and we want to be the ones to share its story with the world.
