Seoul is a dump. Avoid at all cost.

Yes, please --- it is a dump. I've detailed and explained my views of Seoul on previous threads.

Ok, that is fine but since a lof of us don't follow your chronicles perhaps in the future you could give a more intelligent answer this THIS particular thread as to why you think the way you do.

This is probably not needed now anymore.

But for anyone who might be thinking of doing stopover in Seoul flying via asiana or korean air, they do actually have a stopover program similar to what SQ with Singapore. Decent rates too.

More information here.
