Seoul Searchin

When you first get to Korea, things can be really intimidating.  I know I wanted to try to take the bus to Seoul for a while, but it seemed pretty complicated.  Well, it couldn't be any simpler!  Going to Seoul is so easy and so much fun!  As you can see in the picture above, there's a bus to Seoul from the Gohyeon Bus Terminal leaving about every 20 minutes from 05:40 until 24:00.  The ticket is 31,200 won one way, you will buy your ticket back to Gohyeon at the bus terminal in Seoul.  The trip takes approximately 4 hours with just one stop midway through, so if you even think you may need to visit a toilet, it is highly recommended you do so before your departure.  Once you get to Seoul, you will be arriving at the Nambu Bus Terminal.  There are several express bus terminals in Seoul, but only the Nambu Bus Terminal will get you back to Geoje.  There is a convenient subway stop right outside the terminal or you can use one of the many taxis lined up outside to take you where you want to go.
On a side note, if you're like us, and craving Mexican, then be sure to visit On the Border in Seoul.  There are locations at the following subway stations: line 2 #240, line 2 #219 and line 1 #139.  So delicious!
