Everything you need for a class trip
Uber is a no-go in Korea. Download Kakao T instead: shows you the fare upfront and translates the address for the driver. Like Free Now, but Korean. Works a treat.
Google Maps is grand for basics, but for public transport Naver Map is miles better. Has English mode and shows metro and bus in real time. Absolute lifesaver.
Grab one from any convenience store (CU, GS25, 7-Eleven). Top it up and use it on metro, bus and shops. Just like your Leap Card back home. €3 covers a full day in Seoul.
With an Irish passport you don't need a visa or K-ETA for South Korea. Just fly — 90 days, no paperwork, no bother.
Samgyeopsal (meat grilled at the table — like a BBQ but indoors, class craic), Chimaek (fried chicken + beer — your new favourite combo, trust us), Bibimbap (rice, veg, egg). Want it spicy? Say "maewoon". Side dishes (banchan) are free and unlimited — just keep asking for more.
Korea has loads to offer Irish travellers:
