Best, Dave

As this date is just one week after the ZRH Do, I will probably still be recovering from the hangover and am unlikely to attend. But never say never...

most excellent^

I've never been to Korea but understand that a lot of soju is consumed, if this helps ;)

--

from prelim research, it looks like more than a few companies provide tours of the DMZ, one that gets high marks is the USO tour only held on Saturdays:
http://www.uso.org/Korea/default.cfm?contentid=347
Their site did not list times, cost or exact itinerary, guess I'll have to email them

This is the one that I've been "leaning" toward as well, since at least a portion of the tour includes the official "line" between N and S, and I understand that its possible to have military personnel on the tour - which could be interesting in and of itself.

My understanding is that the cost is "near" 75,000 Won, not much different than others.
Advance resv are, of course, going to be required.

Best, Dave

Guys,

For your convenience, I've amended the title of the thread to reflect the dates given in the OP - hope that helps! Have a great time in Seoul :)

Co-moderator, CommunityBuzz!

I am interested but booked for the Yodeleledoo which may be a bit too big a Do for me.... so if this Korea Do gets any real legs, I might just bite the bullet and see how much more DL will charge me to switch air res to join you.....

Bump and sell?

Maybe...
 

I'm going to keep an eye on this. I'll be attending Cow Do III a few weeks prior. And I may be changing jobs, so things are up in the air at the moment.

For me, it's going to be depending on when my biz trip (Korea) schedule finalizes. :(

I am definitely interested in attending this! Let me see what I can find with regards to frequent flyer booking and I'll report back.

Uh-oh, found SQ F award seats. Must...resist...

ooooooooooooooooo, nice !

bul go gi and bibimbop are calling

there are four so far ;)

Well, you can count me in for the late dinner. I'm already here in Seoul and according to my travel plans, it looks like I'll still be here then.
