[@deeplearner2634]

Daaang you guys are going hardcore mode I dont think 99% of seoul citizens havent even thought of looping that trail in one day Respect!

[@NangNangEE]

It's impossible for me. v_V

[@slee2695]

im from seoul..never even knew you can hike like that

[@sharkracer]

I live right outside Seoul, and I didn't even know that trail existed.

[@jwalk_logue]

Yes it's true. It's hard to finish up the trail in one day..even for Koreans

[@me-jd5cp]

한강 남쪽에 사는데 그 길이 있는지 조차 몰랐다

[@남로즈-u5v]

사랑스런 두분께서 아름다운 서울의 역사탐방을 하셨군요 서울은 유구한 역사와 전통을 자랑하는 아름다운 도시입니다 과거와 현재가 공존하는 도시죠 주변의 아름다운 산이 도시를 감싸고 있습니다 정말 아름다워요 서울의 도성체험은 특이한 경험입니다 여행기간 늘 건강하세요 Hanyang(Seoul)doseong was doundary of Hanseongbu, the capital of the Joseon Dynasty, as the city wall built to protect the capital city. Built in 14th century, the wall experienced massive repairs and mends in the 15th, 18th, end 19th centuries. Especially in the early 15th century, the earthen wall was replaced by a stone wall end the entire 18,6-kilometer section became a stone wall. The stone blocks of Hanyang(Seoul)doseong remaining at the foot of Namsan Mduntain today show dynamic diversity in size and form. This demonstrates how Hanyang(Seoul)doseong continued to be managed with various construction techniques of the Joseon Dynasty

[@NangNangEE]

You walked "up" to the Seoul Tower??? WoW... incredible power couple.

[@MrDongkun]

Seoul tower course(Namsan course)is only part of all seoul fortress wall trail. Maybe one eighth of all trail course. I can't believe they done all course finished in a day

[@Wandrative]

The Bukhansan portion is the hard part to climb. namsan is easy

[@sagepark3388]

As a Korean living in the UK, it's so good to see my homeland through your eyes. Since you're travelling around one of my favourite areas(attended uni there) in Seoul throughout the past three videos, it makes me so nostalgic!

[@카린-h7f]

Wow, one of the best Seoul tour vlogs I've ever seen on KZbin. I know how hard those trails are, you finished all at once? Amazing....

[@OnePackWanderers]

It was a very fun day. Our GPS said we hiked 20.4 miles at the end 😅

[@vinhquyen46]

Another day in Seoul another explored. Love you guys

[@parkjnine]

I really like how you guys gave a brief history and background information on Korea's land based off of what you've learned during your hike. Thank you!

[@OnePackWanderers]

Really glad you enjoyed that 😊

[@hilmir]

bukkhansan mountain was one of the most beautiful hikes I've ever done in my life. many years later, I still remember it as a very very unique mountaintop experience!

[@이미지-k1t]

At the top of Inwang Mountain, there are two photo zones where you can see the Gangbuk(north of the Han River) area of Seoul. Unfortunately, the view of Seoul cannot be seen due to the foggy weather. If you climb Mt. Inwang at night, you can take a wonderful night view of Seoul. I am enjoying your visit to Seoul videos. I hope you enjoy Seoul and Korea.

[@Wandrative]

Well you said that its like a sort of temperate rainforest- Korea IS officially a Temperate Rainforest climate. 11:09

[@OnePackWanderers]

Good point 🙂

[@c.k.112]

I am glad you did the trail trip! I was born and raised in Seoul and even I literally lived at just next to the wall but I never knew there is the trail. I was just playing with other boys climbing up and down to the walls when I was a little child. Thank you for your video. it was reminiscent of my childhood.

[@bethanykim3076]

Lovely videos, Tia and Cheveyo! You guys are probably the first youtubers to show this trail, I think! I'd highly recommend cycling along the east coast of Korea as well - the east coast shoreline is very nice, and the beaches are so pristine as well. Gangwon Province (which is a northeast province in Korea) has sheep, windmills and a nice surfing culture, and it's so underrated. Looking forward to seeing more traveling videos! You've earned a new subscriber :)

[@OnePackWanderers]

We much prefer seeing a country as you describe it, so thank you SO much for the Gangwon Province recommendation. That seems like something we'd love to do.

[@bethanykim3076]

@@OnePackWanderers :D I'd highly recommend checking out the Daegwallyeong Sheep Farm, Alpaca World, and as for cities, either Sokcho or Jeongdongjin (both cities have fantastic shorelines, and the air is cleaner than in Seoul). Yangyang also has a surfing culture with more friendly english signage (another city in Gangwon province). The KTX (Korea's bullet train) probably takes you to many of these places from Seoul. There are also the Pyeongchang Winer Olympic sites (like the ski resort and etc) in Gangwon, as well! (South Korea hosted the Winter Olympics in 2018). I will continue to support your travels!!

[@TalesFromOurPocket]

Good for you for not giving up! That first view from the top was incredible. Incredibly foggy, that is! 😂😂 I'm glad it cleared up later on. I bet your feet were sore the next day. 👟 😴

[@HereToCheers]

Wow Seol looks so beautiful, those views of the city were amazing. Thanks for bringing us along. Traveling with you guys always brings a smile.

[@ahmedmashhour1912]

Best thing about finding you this late that it means I have dozens and dozens of vlog to binge watch everyday😀

[@WorldReserveCurrency]

Whoa, those are incredible views.... what a beautiful hike.

[@kwwtjvdb]

You should have seen the beautiful scenery from the Fortress wall of Seoul with an all fine day .😭 But it was worth a try. I love you guys who visited here in Seoul. Thanks.

[@waynefoolxify]

Very impressive! That is one helluva hike! Glad y'all enjoyed it and have fun in Seoul!

[@burnyshin]

Great! Even I am Korean and living in Korea, I never try to walk around Seoul like u!!! What a great 1 dat trip!!

[@normalcynormalcy2338]

Wow that was nuts. My wife and I have a similar map on which we've collected just one stamp (at that final gate lol) the day we got it. It's been at least four years since and we've yet to get the second one haha...

[@마음이꺾여도밀고가]

I really respect this super strong lady ❤❤❤❤❤❤

[@abcdeabcde8408]

Wow !!!! Incredible.....Congrats on your complete trail hiking.

[@wavechamber]

So good! music coming in just in the right time, amazingly made!

[@jefforjo]

That's some intense trail and dedication. I'm glad the effort and perseverance was worth it. How amazing to see that you guys were cool calm and happy through the tough challenge

[@Bernardjytan]

Coivd has make pple fall in love with hiking & cycling. Gonna use this video as references for my nov trip

[@Kiki-tr1zo]

Thanks for the 20min video! We loooove it! That's wat a vlog should b like! 💕💕

[@stevebabitz2440]

I'll be headed to Seoul in a couple weeks (from USA). You guys seem to have found all the fun stuff for my to do list.

[@OnePackWanderers]

First time in Korea? We've been shocked at how nice everything is.

[@scenewalker1065]

Wow! you guys have a lot of energy!!! I love your endless smiles that make me happy! Thanks for the video!

[@nottolearnbuttouse]

Gotta give a round of applause for you guys. Really appreciate it. As Korean who lives in Seoul, I will be enjoying traveling Korea with you guys through your channel.

[@kingkim2105]

천생연분이네 어떻게 둘다 저렇게 긍정적이고 밝을까 you guys are awesome

[@OnePackWanderers]

You're awesome! 🙂

[@ursul7024]

That was awesome! Well done. And the scenery was beautiful. Great way to start my day. Keep loving and laughing 💕

[@madeinaotearoanz]

Oh man all the set-up shots 💯. We appreciate you. 👏🏾👏🏾I loved this! What an awesome experience. 🥰

[@shortkoreatravel]

This is great Seoul city wall trail walking tour!!

[@키다리아저씨-d2w]

와우! 대단해요! 당신들은 한국인보다 더 대단한 하루를 보낸거예요~ 정말 제대로 서울을 경험한 멋진분들이네요! 동대문 광장시장, 잠실 석촌호수 카페도 밤에 가면 더 멋져요 추천할께요~ 즐거운 여행되세요^^

[@bluerain2094]

서울에 살아도 stamp 다 못찍었는데 대단해요 두 분의 웃는 모습이 참 아름답습니다 서울을 잘 즐기셨길 바래요

[@MrDongkun]

Oh my god! Because I have done that two thirds of all seoul fortress wall trail in 1 day I know how much hard it is. It's really really tough. Normally it takes 2 days. I can't believe you finished all trail in a day! Amazing! And thanks that I can see all trail through this!

[@Nomorewhat01]

I agree!!!!! in one day???? It's soooooo tough...Can they walk tomorrow????

[@johnm6504]

Great job, guys! Really enjoyed.

[@jameslee479]

Wow, you guys are amazing. I love your adventures in all place where you’ve been. I’m sure you know how you enjoy your life. And you made it again in Seoul which I didn’t do yet even though I’m a Korean.

[@OnePackWanderers]

What part of Korea are you from? :)

[@없음-c5h1k]

The two of you have good physical strength^^ I live in the city of Hanyang and haven't tried it. I'll have to try the stamp too~ I hope you have a pleasant trip~^^

[@OnePackWanderers]

We just learned that Hanyang is the old name for Seoul :)

[@cloudwatcher608]

I know this video is mostly about the hike, but I’m impressed by how well you are pronouncing the Korean words without knowing the language. When you said “sukjeongmun gate” I was able to google it hangeul (korean characters) and came up with the right result.

[@need5mojo]

completing the wall trailing is 5 mountain up and down in a day. what an energy

[@shutat7323]

You guys did a really great job! Even Koreans can't do that easily! And your positive mind and smiles makes me smile, Thanks!^^

[@Potomacstud]

i am so proud of both you !

[@lkmhappy]

7:09" The inside of the line is the real Seoul 630 years ago. Until just 40 years ago, Seoul absorbed the surrounding areas into Seoul, giving it its present shape and size. It's amazing to see that you can do it well without English instructions. It is not an easy map even for Koreans. I look forward to the next update.

[@darrylk808]

Yeah!! Congrats on finishing the entire 11 miles. Now you can go for a BIG meal!!

[@OnePackWanderers]

Not going to lie, McDonald's was the only burger place that was open by the time we walked back down into the city (12am). We ate... a lot

[@molrr]

근데 이언니 너무예쁘네 특히 웃을때 빛이날정도로 매력적임

[@CambodiaNomadTips]

How were your feet 🐾!?!? That was an epic walk. Well done to you both. Next walk will be the Chinese Wall 🧱🧱🧱🧱🧱🧱🧱🧱🧱🧱

[@OnePackWanderers]

The Great Wall of China would be AWESOME! Much bigger hike than this one was 😅

[@lexigone]

Wow, both of you made it to Seoul Tower!!

[@DavidandSarah]

Those stamp things are so cool!! It''s a pity it was foggy at the top! Still a great vlog though 😊

[@littleprince2226]

제대로된 서울 여행하시는군요 해피한 모습 보기 넘 좋아요~^^*

[@java_cafe]

you guys are so cool! I keep my fingerers crossed for the rest of your trip👍

[@OnePackWanderers]

You're cool!

[@csjjang8218]

What a tough guys you r! I'm a Seoul citizen, and even though it's been for several decades since I was born in Seoul, I've never tried to do it, not even to think about it. These days, I'm learning and getting lot's of information from foreign visitors about which places are hot spots for touring in Korea. And, u guys are picked for another nice Korea tour guides for me, haha. Thanks for giving us such a nice video, and I'm definitely going to go for the city wall hiking sooner or later.

[@jinwoolee1540]

Total Respect !

[@이진영-x8c]

한국에 오신걸 환영합니다 두분 미소가 너무 아릅다워요 한국에서 좋은 추억 만드시고 항상 건강하시고 행복하세요^^

Thank you very much 😊

[@sunjoy1010]

Looking so great. I also have tried once this year. It is totally worth.

[@sugarsugar7848]

4:32 Tia, so cute reaction. 😆 4:34 19:33 Wow you walked by "Dilkusha" which is old house of American journalist and his wife who lived in Korea and helped Korea's independence under Japanese colonial. (ended up with being deported by Japan) You guys amazing to walk properly old fortress!!! Thank you for showing beautiful scenes of Seoul. 💕😄😉

[@AmericanInThailand]

Damn! When you guys walk off a lunch you really go for it! Nice job!

[@Curious-traveler]

Good to see you guys! Nice 👍 overview of the city.

[@아침이슬-y6i]

As a Korean, thank you so much for filming Seoul scenery diligently! 😂🎉😊 Good luck!

[@pietropie]

12:39 You are lucky, these trails were closed to public for a long time, they opened it recently, and from looking at your videos, the views are stunning. There are military bases around there because the North Korean assassination team sneaked thru these mountains to Seoul back in the days.

[@OnePackWanderers]

On our hike we came across a tree with several bullet holes in it, from a gunfight that happened years ago. Very interesting history, but also very safe and beautiful these days.

[@UbermanNullist]

I'm a Korean. I learned a new trail course from you.

[@kimiksoon]

I'm Korean, but I haven't been to the place you've been to. After watching the video this time, I was motivated to try it. Thank you. I hope you had a great time in Korea

[@부산쌥쌥이-j3h]

[@RaymondwLin]

This hike is insane, you guys are nuts! can't believe you did the last part to Seoul Tower!

[@speakupyt4900]

Too bad you only saw 2/10 of Seoul so far~ Have you guys went to Starfield Library, Hankang park water fall show at night , Lotte tower, Itawon and Hongdae etc..?

[@juliaal.4051]

Sooo great Video thank youuuu

[@hongyaochua2758]

You both should try going to a jimjilbang!

[@babylux22]

You guys are so beautiful!! Love watching your videos. I end up here because I'm going to Seoul in October and I'm watching everything I can, but definitely I'll watch other videos from you!!!

[@jasgem76]

Cheveyo's hammock in the clouds idea gave me anxiety. Like my gut actually clenched when he was talking about it 😂

[@pohanahawaii]

👍👍 The Seoul City Wall Trail is awesome, guys! I really appreciate the historical perspective, scenery, and idea of such an activity! It's funny how Seoul, despite being the capital and advanced international city, has only Korean signage available as if saying: 😂 FU foreign tourists, learn some Hangul (한글) already because we don't care here that English is the international language! And yes, Tia, older people from Japan, too, beat us on strenuous walks/climbs every time! 🙈 I used to be so embarrassed pretending to stop and enjoy the views on the Diamond Head Hike (but really to breathe and replenish moisture) as older Japanese tourists hurriedly passed me uphill in very inappropriate footwear with no tractions whatsoever.

[@lecherhao86]

Would be nice to give us a breakdown of your expenditure for the content in the video since you are on a budget. This will help some viewers here plan their budget trip too around your itinerary. Thanks!

[@NangNangEE]

Hmmm they walked,,, quite a lot. I would recommend bus tour. $6~$7 is still to much? Than take a normal blue bus which circles around Seoul for $2~$3.

[@bencharm-s6o]

와..이건 진짜 힘든데 대단하네요 ㅋㅋㅋ

[@shelleyjubb]

Time to invest in a drone guys? Thanks for putting in so much effort with the camera guys. What a big day.a great effort. Because you guys like to just go with the flow and not pre organise to much do you guys ever leave a country and find something you missed and wish you had researched more so you didn’t? I did an Asia 6months trip in 2010 and we missed a few things I always said I will be able to go back but that hasn’t happened, main regret for me of all was jodhpur fort I didn’t pay to go in and then found out on the train back to Delhi that was still lived in so all decorated and wish I had just done it but it was one of the cities we decided to do at the last min and didn’t know really anything about.

It's really nice to see you traveling beautifully in Korea. Korea is really safe. There are so many delicious foods.
