Hi everybody!
I'm planning to travel to seoul this month (march 16-29) - probably will stay at the Jong gu area
few things I would like to know:
1) Safety wise - any places I should avoid? dress code etc?
2) attractions - any festivals worth checking?
3) good places to eat!
4) Weather wise - I understand that during this time of year its still cold - Is it raining? snowing? windy? what should I wear?
Also would like to make some new friends :)
Thanks-Revital
Here is a web page that details 10 Food Streets in Seoul. Very informative.

Hi, RevitalVan
1) Safety wise -
Mostly, S. Korea is safe place to travel. You can see many people in the street even 3am or 4am.
I think if you pick up your room near subway station, I think no problem at all.
2) attractions -
Please refer http://www.visitseoul.net/en/index.do?_method=main
3) good places to eat!
http://www.visitseoul.net/en/index.do?_method=main has it.
4) Weather wise -
End of March, S. Korea has clear blue sky(if there is no smog from China =)).
But you should wear long sleeve shirt and jumper on your body. It's not that warm.
Forecase says temp will be from 5'c to 14'c. and rainy last week of March.
