[@shintasway9479]

Soooooo helpful!! Thankyou very much for the historical details. That was like a bonus.

[@grandmasterjo1]

Thank you as always. Excellent video 👍

[@shirley.tangcw]

Thanks for making these videos. The info you shared on Seoul was useful when I was preparing my visit to Seoul last Sep. This time round, I plan to just visit Busan in Nov. I depended a lot on Naver Map, subway & buses, as well as lots of walking when I was in Seoul. The only challenge and unhappiness I experienced was finding a proper eating place that offers food for one person (solo traveler); be it BBQ pork or proper decent Korean food, like soups, stew or seafood. Most required at least 2 diners. There are a few restaurants which offers BBQ pork for solo travelers but they were far from where I stayed (Euljiro). As I do not understand Korean language, I could only looked out for restaurants with food pictures on the windows/store front. For most, the soup were served in big earthenware; for more than 1 person. And I didn't want to eat street food or western food for all 8 days in Seoul. The only time I had a proper Korean food (soup/stew served in earthenware) was when I visited the National Museum and at the ICN airport, where they served seafood stew (or soup) in small earthenware. Street food in Busan is a must try but I also hope to stay somewhere in Busan where I can get easy access to restaurants or eateries that serve food for 1 diner, especially pork soup, ginseng chicken soup, seafood. Would appreciate if you could help provide some info, or links, or recommendation.

Hi Yong. Thank you for your sharing and tips, very informative. Can I ask for information about luggage storage. I am looking for a place to keep our big suitcases for several days. Is there a place to keep or store big suitcases for several days in busan station?

[@2PM2PM2PM]

감사합니다. When you say pinned comment, where is it on mobile? I can’t find them on a couple videos you mentioned them in, and I’ve looked everywhere 🙏

[@thanhtang1195]

So informative. Thank you. Question for you- is it better to saty two nights in haeundae then changed hotel near busan station so can catch ktx back to Seoul? Or is it more efficient to just stay in Haeundea and go sight seeing. We will have one big 80cm luggage and backpack. Please advise. It will be winter when we travel.

[@SherleyA-h7e]

Is it easy to take taxi to move around? Which app should we use? And does it need a local number?

[@karenkoh3475]

Hi Yong, I'll be going Busan for work and travel at the same time (1st time). Is it difficult to eat alone in most of the restaurant? What should I look out for when going to restaurant?

Thank you SO MUCH for this life-saving video! I'm watching and re-watching every minute of it. It helps me planning my Busan trip a lot. I've chosen an airbnb near Millac Market since it's in between Haeundae and Gwangalli Beach. It's kinda far from the nearest subway station BEXCO. I plan on taking taxi to go to places.

[@sue008A]

Did you know that Busan used to be called Pusan... Here's why it was changed from Pusan to Busan. In the year 2000, Korea changed Pusan to Busan (부산) because Pusan (푸산) sounds awful to Korean ears. Also, Inchon (인촌) became Incheon (인천). When Pusan became Busan, I said to myself, "Finally, somebody has the sense to make it sound right. These changes occurred because the Korean government changed the rules regarding the writing Korean words using the English alphabet, called Romanization. This is what I got when I looked it up.

[@wuwei87]

This is inaccurate, sorry. The change in romanization didn't coincide with a change in pronunciation. 부산, 인천 have always had those names and those same pronunciations. The pre-2000 romanization system is called McCune-Reischauer and it just a different standard for transcribing Korean sounds. 부산 was Pusan, 인천 was Inchôn (the diacritic over the is actually a breve but my phone can't type it), etc. Remember that orthography (spelling) has absolutely nothing to do with phonology (pronunciation). The new Revised Romanization has changed nothing about Korean other than its transcription for international purposes.
