Decent location, I haven't been there personally, but it's close enough to Seoul to visit on the weekend. |

It's south/southeast of Seoul.

Get ready for "Teacher, do you know Everland?"
There are some newer subway stations there, and more on the way, but you will PROBABLY need to use buses to get to Seoul. |

Thanks everyone. Once I get the address I'll post it to see if you can give me a better idea. Is Everland actually fun at all? I looked it up online and it looks like an amusement park, but I'm wondering if its six flags quality or something more for kids?

My school is really close to yours. I live in Bundang though and take the bus down to work. I know the Bundang area is really fun and nice so if you need a friend when you get here just let me know. We can even go exploring more in Yongin. ^^ |

There's a big folk village in Yongin, a little pricey, but a full day's entertainment. |

Everland has some serious rollercoasters, but it's no Cedar Point or King's Island, that's for sure. |
