If you're currently in Korea and require assistance, we're here to help! You can schedule a face-to-face consultation with one of our staff members and receive the necessary support for your issue. We highly recommend discussing only one topic per session, as a single topic may require more information than anticipated.

If you're planning to visit Korea for work or education, or if you're already here and need help but can't meet in person, scheduling a video session might be the solution you need. We recommend choosing one topic per session if you want to discuss it in-depth, or multiple topics if you just need general information. Feel free to reach out to us if you have any questions or concerns.

We understand that some individuals may not feel comfortable with voice or video calls, so we provide a text session option for our consulting services. This option allows for greater freedom of expression and easier access to other devices based on your schedule. We recommend focusing on one to two topics to ensure adequate time for discussion.

Credits to: Namu Wiki  As we saw in the previous articles, Korean palaces stand as majestic testaments to the country's historical grandeur and cultural sophistication. Unlike typical structures, these palaces were meticulously designed to reflect the harmony between nature and architecture, often featuring expansive courtyards, intricate wooden craftsmanship, and vibrant rooftops that symbolize authority and elegance. They served not only as royal residences but also as centers of political power, ceremonial gatherings, and artistic endeavors, embodying the dynamic spirit of Korea's past rulers. Each palace tells a story of strategic planning, artistic innovation, and a deep connection with Korea's evolving identity through centuries. Finding out more about Gyeonghuigung Palace’s Legacy Located at 161 Sajik-ro, Jongno-gu, Seoul Gyeonghuigung Palace  was built in 1617 by King Gwanghaegun. It was originally known as the Great Palace by Saemun Gate, or the Western Palace, due to its location within Seoul. It wasn’t until 1616, during the eighth year of Gwanghaegun’s reign, that the palace was designated as the king’s residence, at which point its name was changed to Gyeongdeokgung Palace. This palace is distinctive because it mirrors the landscape that encompasses the entire complex. It is also known as the most important out of all palaces due to its size and it served as a place where kings could undergo important state affairs. Credits to: KoreaToDo The Heunghwamun Gate is the main gate for Gyeonghuigung Palace. It was originally situated adjacent to the current Salvation Army Center, facing Jongno Avenue. Later, it was reconstructed as the main gate of Bakmunsa, a shrine dedicated to a Japanese general. However, in 1988, the gate was completely restored and relocated to its present site. Credits to: Namu Wiki Geumcheongyo Bridge, constructed in 1619 during Gwanghaegun's reign, is a stone bridge over the Geumcheon stream near the Seoul Museum of History. One of its rainbow-shaped posts is engraved with a goblin, believed to ward off evil spirits. Credits to : Korea Heritage Sungjeongjeon Hall, known as the throne hall, where the king would conduct numerous morning meetings and ceremonies. The hall also served as a venue for royal banquets and receptions for distinguished foreign guests and officials. Credits to:The Seoul Guide The palace complex is also famous for Jajeongjeon Hall where the king would hold meetings with his royal council and where the king would spend his private moments in solitude. Credits to: Creatrip Next up, Taeryeongjeon Hall houses the portrait of King Yeongjo, who reigned from 1724 until his death in 1776. Initially, this building had no designated purpose or particular use. Credits to: Namu Wiki Seoam Rock is a prominent large stone formation renowned for its distinctive design and for Amcheon, the natural fountain flowing within it. Historically, it was called Wangam, meaning 'King’s Rock,' leading to the belief that King Gwanghaegun constructed Gyeonghuigung Palace at this site. In 1708, during the 34th year of King Sukjong’s reign, the name was changed to Seoam Rock, which translates to ‘Propitious Rock.’ Sightseeing and exploring its history are key activities, offering visitors a chance to discover the area's cultural heritage, learn about its past through exhibits, and enjoy its scenic beauty.                                     Things to Know Before Exploring Gyeonghuigung Palace The facility operates daily from 9:00 AM to 6:00 PM, providing visitors with plenty of time to explore its historical sites and enjoy the serene atmosphere. It is recommended to plan your visit accordingly to make the most of your experience, as the site may close earlier on certain holidays or special occasions. Be sure to check for any temporary closures or special events that might affect operating hours before your trip. The admission to Gyeonghuigung Palace is free for all visitors, making it the only free royal palace in Seoul. However, unlike other palaces in the city, it does not offer guided tours. If you're interested in exploring the site with a guide, the popular Evening Ghost Walk is a great option. Also, visitors are not permitted to enter any of the buildings, but you are welcome to look inside several structures. Please note that this complex is a replica of the original palace. Some of the best subway stations to use when planning your visit: Seodaemun Station, accessible via exit 4 on line 5, and Gwanghwamun Station, accessible via exit 7 on line 5. Gyeonghuigung Palace is a captivating destination where history, culture, and elegance fusion. Its tranquil grounds and fascinating history make it an ideal spot for those interested in exploring Korea’s royal past.

Long before it was a common tabletop staple, salt was a currency of power. Ancient Romans were partially paid in salt, and its control sparked revolutions and funded wars. Beyond its value as a seasoning, salt was the world’s first preservative, allowing humanity to store food and travel vast distances across oceans and deserts. Where I come from, salt hides in the mountain's dark heart, a buried treasure, ancient and still. But here, in Sinan, I discovered salt that breathes with the tide, that glitters under the sun, that tastes of wind and wandering. Here, salt is not dug from stone. It is harvested from light. Relaxing by the sea. In the southwestern reaches of Korea lies Sinan, a county where the boundary between the sea and the sky often disappears. Sinan is famously known by the slogan "1004" , a clever bit of Korean wordplay. In Korean, the number 1,004 is pronounced Cheonsa  (천사), which is a homonym for the word "Angel."  It perfectly captures the ethereal beauty of the 1,004 islands that make up the archipelago. Korea’s finest sea salt. often called “white gold”, comes from these tidal flats. The geography is perfect: wide, mineral-rich mudflats, clean sea water, and long hours of sunlight during the harvesting season. The process itself feels almost meditative. Seawater is guided through a series of shallow evaporation ponds, slowly concentrating under the sun until delicate salt crystals form. Nothing is rushed. Nature sets the pace, and the farmers follow. Before coming here, I didn’t think much about salt. It was just… there. Something you sprinkle without thinking. But standing in the middle of a salt farm, watching the light reflect off the crystallized surfaces, I realized how different this kind of salt is, not just in taste, but in spirit. On a sunny spring day I  found myself on Jeungdo (증도), specifically in Daecho-ri (대초리), to visit the legendary Taepyeong Salt Farm (태평염전) in Sinan-gun. As someone who usually rushes through life with a coffee in one hand and a phone in the other, I wasn’t prepared for how this place would get under my skin. If you want to understand the soul of Korean cuisine, you have to start where the flavor begins: with the salt. To understand the significance of this place, you have to understand that Sinan is to salt what Bordeaux is to wine. This region produces the lion’s share of Korea’s  cheonilyeom  (천일염), or sun-dried salt. Unlike the cheap, chemically stripped table salt most of the world is used to, the salt here is a living thing. Jeungdo, part of Sinan County’s UNESCO Biosphere Reserve, is home to Taepyeong Salt Farm, Korea’s largest salt farm at about 4.62 million square meters. The farm has long been central to the area’s salt production and is known for its traditional sun-dried sea salt. For decades, this farm has been the heart of the region’s economy, a place where nature and human labor meet to produce "white gold." There’s a quiet contrast that came to mind as I walked: mountain salt versus marine salt. Mountain salt, like rock salt or mined salt, is ancient, formed over millions of years from dried prehistoric seas, locked deep within the earth. It carries a certain heaviness, a sense of age and stillness. Its flavor is often sharper, more direct, almost aggressive in comparison. Marine salt, on the other hand, feels alive. Especially here in Sinan, where the salt is harvested naturally from the sea. It retains trace minerals, magnesium, calcium, potassium, that give it a softer, more complex taste. There’s a subtle sweetness to it, a roundness. It doesn’t just season food; it enhances it, quietly. And somehow, standing there, it made sense. This salt has been touched by sunlight, shaped by ocean breezes, and gathered by human hands. It carries a story in every grain. The Taepyeong Salt farm is a mosaic of squares,some filled with shimmering water reflecting the sky, others dusted with a thin crust of brilliant white crystals . In the distance, the iconic observation deck offers a panoramic view that makes the whole operation look like a minimalist art installation. I spent hours walking the "Mudflats Road," a path that lets you get up close to the intricate system of pools and channels. It’s not just about the salt here; the ecosystem is thriving. I peered down into the mud and saw tiny mudskippers ( jjangttungeo ), which, as the locals proudly told me, only live in the cleanest of environments . You can follow the 470-meter-long Jjangttungeo Bridge to watch these little creatures hop along the wetlands, a sign that this industrial site lives in perfect harmony with nature. One of the highlights was the Salt Gallery (소금박물관). Housed in a sturdy stone building that was originally constructed as a salt storage in 1945, the museum does an incredible job of reframing how we see salt . In a world obsessed with low-sodium diets, this museum has the audacity to champion the health benefits of good salt. It explains the anthropological history, the labor-intensive process of harvesting, and even showcases the different types of salt plants (halophytes) like the vibrant glasswort that turn the marshes a fiery red in the autumn . The salt museum. No visit is complete without a stop at the souvenir shop. I had heard whispers about "salt ice cream" and was skeptical.  Salty ice cream?  Let me tell you, it’s a revelation. The slight saltiness doesn’t overpower the sweet cream; it enhances it, making it richer and more refreshing. It’s the perfect antidote to a sunny day in the fields. The shop is filled with locally manufactured treasures, pouches of premium  cheonilyeom , salt scrubs for skincare, and jars of  hamcho  (saltwort) salt, which is blended with the local succulent plants to add a subtle, grassy flavor. I left Jeungdo with a bag of salt heavier than my backpack and a heart full of peace. In a world where we are constantly bombarded with noise, there is something profoundly grounding about watching a family rake salt crystals under the sun, a practice that hasn't changed much in centuries. Whether you are a foodie looking to taste the purest version of Korean flavor, a traveler seeking the tranquility of a UNESCO "Slow City," or just someone who wants to walk across a bridge over a tidal flat while holding a weirdly delicious salty ice cream, Taepyeong Salt Farm is a destination that feeds the soul. Still nature of Jeungdo. It’s not just a farm; it’s the taste of the sea, the labor of love, and the quiet beauty of Korea’s coastline, all crystallized into one unforgettable experience. Go. Breathe in the salt air. And don’t forget to bring a towel, you’re going to want to dip your feet in the mud.

WHAT IS CHILDREN’S DAY? Children’s Day (어린이날) is a national holiday in South Korea celebrated every year on the 5th of May. This celebration is meant to honour children, recognise their importance in Korean society, and promote their happiness, rights, and well-being. The holiday has a deeply meaningful cultural value that promotes the fact that Korean children are not just simply their parents’ offspring, but independent individuals who deserve respect, care, and joy so they can develop into their best version of themselves. The origins of Children’s Day in Korea date back to the early 20th century, when children’s rights activists such as Bang Jeong-hwan advocated for better treatment and recognition of children. The holiday was officially established in 1923 and later designated as a public holiday in 1975. HOW DO PEOPLE CELEBRATE CHILDREN’S DAY? Credits: Teachers Page Children’s Day is one of the most joyful and lively holidays in South Korea. Unlike more solemn traditions such as Seollal or Chuseok, this day is centred on fun, freedom, and celebration. Korean families spend the day together, often going out and having fun. Parents typically take time off work to dedicate the entire day to their children. The atmosphere is cheerful and energetic, with parks, zoos, amusement parks, and cultural sites filled with families enjoying quality time. WHAT ACTIVITIES AND EVENTS ARE SPECIFIC TO CHILDREN’S DAY? Credits: Lingopie On Children’s Day, a wide variety of events are organised across the country, many of them free or specially designed for children. Popular activities include visiting amusement parks like Lotte World or Everland, exploring zoos, aquariums, and science museums, participating in outdoor festivals, parades, and performances and attending special exhibitions, workshops, or storytelling events. Schools, museums, and cultural institutions often host interactive programs where children can learn through play. Some cities organise large-scale festivals with concerts, games, and creative activities. WHAT FOOD AND SWEETS ARE ASSOCIATED WITH CHILDREN’S DAY? Unlike Seollal or Chuseok, Children’s Day does not have specific traditional dishes tied to rituals. Instead, the focus is on foods that children love. Families often eat out at restaurants chosen by the children, enjoy fast food, desserts, and snacks or buy cakes, ice cream, and colourful sweets. It is also common for parents to prepare special meals at home based on their children’s preferences. The emphasis is not on tradition, but on indulgence and joy, which makes children feel celebrated in a special way. WHAT TRADITIONS AND CUSTOMS ARE SPECIFIC TO CHILDREN’S DAY? Credits: Every Day is Special Blog The central custom of Children’s Day is simple: children come first. Parents and relatives give gifts, which can range from toys and books to clothes or experiences. Many children also receive handwritten letters expressing love and encouragement. Another important aspect is the recognition of children’s rights. The holiday carries an underlying message about respecting children as individuals with their own voices, needs, and dignity, a concept strongly promoted by early reformers like Bang Jeong-hwan. WHAT ARE SOME INTERESTING FACTS AND CURIOSITIES ABOUT CHILDREN’S DAY? South Korea was one of the first countries in the world to establish a Children’s Day. The word 어린이 (eorini), meaning “child,” was popularised to emphasise respect, replacing more diminutive or informal terms. Children’s Day is part of a cluster of holidays in early May, often creating a longer vacation period known as “Golden Week” in Korea. Amusement parks and family attractions experience some of their highest attendance of the year on this day.  WHAT SHOULD FOREIGNERS KNOW ABOUT CHILDREN’S DAY? If you are visiting South Korea on May 5th, expect large crowds at popular attractions. Amusement parks, zoos, and children’s museums can become extremely busy. However, this also makes it a wonderful opportunity to witness Korean family culture at its most vibrant. Many public spaces offer special performances and activities that are enjoyable even for adults. If you are invited to celebrate with a Korean family, bringing a small gift for the child is a thoughtful gesture and will be warmly appreciated. WHY DOES THIS HOLIDAY MATTER IN KOREAN CULTURE? Children’s Day reflects a significant transformation of Korean society because it marked a shift from strict traditional hierarchies toward a more modern emphasis on individual value and emotional well-being. It highlights the belief that children are the future of the nation and deserve not only education and discipline, but also happiness, creativity, and respect. In a highly competitive society, this day serves as a reminder to slow down and prioritise joy, play, and family connection. Credits: AstroSage Children’s Day in South Korea is a celebration of laughter, love, and hope for a better future. It transforms cities into playgrounds and reminds adults of the importance of nurturing the next generation with care and respect. How do people in your country celebrate Children’s Day?
