The opportunity has so far eluded me, but I might have an opportunity next year. I've read about it, looked at the Web site, and I'm still thinking.

Maybe take the KTX to Pohang, catch the boat to Ulleungdo, and reverse it back to Seoul. It would be in June. I'm wondering if any of you have traveled there, and if so, was it worth the trouble? An alternative would be Jejudo, but I'm not so wild about going there now, if only because seemingly everyone does.

Back in the early 1990's when I was in Korea for a year, I traveled to a lot of places, and I wouldn't mind to revisit some: Mallipo/Chullipo (만리포/천리포), Kojedo (거제도), and many others. But after visiting Seoul a couple of years ago, and seeing all the changes, I figured there's no harm in asking before dragging the whole famn damily off on some wacky excursion.
There's also a hydrofoil from Donghae on the east coast, so if you're going to be in Seoul Donghae might be better
