Visiting Seoul during winter is truly beautiful, especially when it snows, as seen in many K-dramas. If you’re planning a trip to South Korea in this season, here are some recommendations. Keep in mind that although Christmas in Korea is more of a commercial celebration focused on couples rather than families, the city is still filled with festive decorations and lights everywhere. The weather can get extremely cold, so make sure to dress warmly. I recommend wearing layers because it gets very warm inside buildings. During my winter trip, I wore multiple layers and even used hot packs because my hands and face felt painfully cold at times. Plan your outfits with both outdoor and indoor temperatures in mind. Hope these tips help you plan your trip better! | Disclaimer: This list includes some affiliate links.
