Humidity, sweat, and wet feet always make things a more enjoyable experience for me too.

By train or on top of Dobongsan or down the Jang it is quite lovely. Getting out of Seoul really helps you reconnect with this weird thing I forgot about called 'nature'.

Korea is a pretty country and, even though they'd had to hear it, resembles Japan in many ways. Lots of forest covered mountains, fog and green rice fields.

Actually a long time ago, Korea was regarded as a photographers dream, beautiful mountains, valleys, streams etc. Then someone decided to cover the whole place with really cheapy ugly buildings that are top to toe in awful neon signage.

You forgot about the layer of trash covering every single square inch of this great country. But maybe that doesn't show so well in a scenic photograph.

I don't think Busan's that dirty, and the hills are kept really very clean.

Someone's insulting Korea's weather?

Ducati to the rescue!

You could have also mentioned how the U.S. has much worse weather, including disasters like Hurricane Katrina. That'll show 'em!

California weather has been insanely awesome. 94's, NO humidity, windy cool weather. I'm in heaven. The past few years, though, were all 100+ and no wind. Felt like the godamn sun was on a crash path towards cali.

Though the op is trolling, I do have to say that Korea is a beautiful country in some parts.

I particularly like Cheolla Buk Do. Two mountians there - 'Mai-san' and
'Dae Dun- san' are absolutely stunningly picturesque and serene. The seaside cliffs in yeosu too are very beautiful and on a nice day Seoraksan (although overatted and not as nice as Cheolla do) is well worth a visit.

Oh also, the Namsan (Most Koreans don't seem to realise there IS a mountain range called the Namsan National park in Gyeongju and will argue till they're blue in the face that there isn't) is also gorgeous.
