i wouldnt visit Seoul. a better experience would be Thailand or Vietnam. More Asian culture and better food.
if you want Starbucks and McDonalds with a bunch of teenage KPop music blaring in the background then visit seoul.

The famous tourist spot in Seoul is dog meat market. South Koreans eat nearly 2. 5 million dogs and cats a year. Go see the hell.
