| It is around 2-2 1/2 hours by bus but due to Pusan traffic it could take up to 3 1/2 hours to get to the terminal. |

Suncheon has a pretty decent sized crowd that's pretty friendly. Here is a yahoo group for foreigners in Suncheon:

Lived there my first year in Korea and it's a nice area to be in and I go back occassionally to visit friends still working/living there. |

decent location to hit the big city of Gwangju in an hour or coastal Yeosu in less time than that, Jiri national park likewise close
Busan is two and a half hours away, Seoul four hours and twenty minutes by comfty cheap express bus
and it's on the train route: you can take a train to Mokpo or Haeundae beach in Busan, cheap as most transportation is here but slower than express buses by quite a bit
suncheon is renowned for its friendly foreigners: a bunch of them make a habit of spending friday nights at a bar in nearby coastal city of Gwangju at the foreigner bar called Goldfinger near city hall. i've done that a few times, from here in nearby rural gyeongsangnamdo |
