Can anyone recommend a place to go for the weekend with my girlfriend? We have been together 2 years so it doesn't need to be super romantic. We are both a bit stressed from work and need a break from Seoul. It should be easy to get to from either Seoul or Yongsan station.

Any recommendations would be gratefully recieved.

I'm in the same boat as this guy. Where can I go with my girl to get away from the pollution?

Mokpo, then to Hongdo?

Some other options:

* Songnisan / Beopjusa
* Tapsa / Maisan near Jinan (exit the KTX at Iksan)
* Jikjisa, (Gimcheon) under-rated & well worth seeing
* Danyang: 3 artificial waterfalls, caves, temples, & the 3 rocks in the river
* Ulleungdo (3 hours from Donghae on the east coast)
* Chuncheon

Grab a KTX to Busan (3 hrs) and go to Taejongdae, look at the ocean, grab a bite near the observatory. Very beautiful, very quiet, accessible.

Spend the evening in Seomyeon (JJB or Hostel (Blue Backpackers 30$/night?) then putter around the city and head back.

You are one hour away from Jeju. Flights can be had for 60,000 won, love motel for 40,000 won. Jeju needn't be expensive.

Spring flowers are blooming. It was 17 C today. It's expected to be warmer next weekend. The air is cleaner, the hikes nice, the weather not too cool, not too hot.

Come on down.

I highly recommend Seonyu-do. You take a ferry from Gunsan. It's a quiet little island that few Koreans seem to know about. You can stay at a little motel where the adjumma will handle everything for you, the room, there's probably a restaurant on the first floor, even renting a bike. If you wait a few weeks I bet the weather will be spectacular.
