Minor gaining entry and staying in S.Korea for a holiday?

Hello! I'm currently planning a trip to S. Korea and I'm slightly butting heads with my Mum
This is to be my first trip abroad, by myself and she is very worried about me. I'm currently 17 years old, 18 this year and my Korean age is 19. I've emailed many places in Seoul about an under 18 in Western age staying at their guesthouse/hostel, but all were okay with it seeing as I'm 19 years old in Korea - the age of adulthood over there. I've confirmed this more than twice with the owner of the place I'm staying at before making a reservation. Mum is still worried about it somehow though
What she's worried about my trip the most is that she thinks I may be refused entry into the country because of my age and me being unaccompanied. What are the chances of this happening? Thanks in advance for any replies!
