Most Koreans Go Overseas for Pleasure
The majority of overseas Korean travelers spend money mostly on travel, medical and educational services, while a large portion of spending by incoming foreign travelers are business-related expenses.
The number of overseas Korean travelers rose to 6.53 million during the seven-month period from 5.8 million in the previous year, according to the Korea Tourism Organization. The number of incoming foreign travelers stood at 3.46 million, compared with 3.41 million a year earlier.

| His point is that most people traveling to Korea don't come here for pleasure but for business. People come here because they have to, not because they want to I guess. |
