This web can help you with info about ferries out of Busan (to Osaka and to other destinations). Be aware is dated in November last year so you should update some of the info (e.g.: schedules) but it provides the relevant links to the ferry companies in order to make it.

thanx for the reply Annilos,i have been on this web site and cannot get it translated,i need proof of my onward journey from korea and ferry seems the cheapest option,i must have proof before entry to korea of this,i may have to try and telephone this firm,thanx again,

Try looking at kangsan travel and see if they can book it for you, they speak English and are based in busan.

thankyou for the reply i emailed the company they gave me a phone number,i did telephone but willdo it again tmorrow and there will be somebody there who speaks english,thanx again whizz.

What passport are you using? We were using NZ and UK passports and didn't need visas or proof of outward travel when entering either Japan or Korea a few weeks ago. We travelled from Shimonoseki to Busan via overnight ferry.

Have a look at Kampu Ferries website (they travel to Shimonoseki and Fukuoka in Japan) and the Beetle Ferry site too.

thanx for the reply,im going to check out what you said,im on a uk passport,i telephoned the korean embassy in london and they told me i need an onward ticket or i may not get in,i dont want to take the chance and not get in,you did well and i hope you both have a great trip.
