If you're talking about the city itself Koreans would probably say Gyeongju
though apart from the historic places it pretty much looks like all the other towns in Korea. Basically if you're coming here you need to forget the idea of an attractive town/city in the way people talk about towns/cities in Europe for example. Some Korean towns have attractive buidlings/parks in them but that's about as far as it goes. |
That's a bummer I really love the look of a old wooden buildning.

Some towns in Gyeonngi Province appear on a map to be close to Seoul but traveling to Seoul can be inconvenient.
Live near a subway station and you'll be fine. Look on a subway map and choose wisely. Any recruiter would understand the request to be close to a subway station and be able to find something.

Daegu sucks mainly because of the distorted mindset of the people. My mother is from there and... |
I'm sort of interested in what you mean. Is it about foreigners? Or pride? I don't speak Korean almost at all (I'm pretty new) but everyone's been very cool to me. Younger people especially, but the only person who has been anything but warm and helpful was a crazy drunk old dude. |
