Flying every week between tokyo and seoul and tokyo and busan
Hi
I will probably take a job in Kawasaki, but my partner lives in Busan, South Korea and she's studying there so i'll be flying between the two countries every week.
I'd be departing tokyo on friday and then returning on monday (i would have the whole of friday, so i'd leave on the first flight out, and return monday night on the last flight out)
