hahaha...I had planned on a trip to Tokyo for one of the long weekends this month, but I found out that a flight to Tokyo would be 570,000 won, and the times leaving and coming back to Incheon were so terrible that actually I would have only been spending less than 2 days in Tokyo, even though it is a 3 day weekend. My clueless Korean friend told me the flight was so expensive because I wanted to go alone. She said "You have to go on a tour for a cheaper price". Shocked Shocked Shocked Whatever did she mean? Geez. Talk about clueless. A great friend, but clueless nonetheless. 570,000 won for a flight has NOTHING to do with going alone. That's an inflated 3 day weekend price. DUH!

Korean packages can be cheaper. I went on a 4 day trip to Beijing last year for 250,000 won (including flights, hotels, food, trips).
