best adventures are right outside your dorm. During a five-day holiday weekend in Seoul, I skipped the international trips and embraced local gems: surprise K-pop pop-ups, the vibrant Seoul Spring Fiesta, peaceful hours at the Seoul Outdoor Library, and hidden cafés. From live music in Hongdae to Mingyu’s Snickers pop-up in Seongsu, the weekend proved that staying local can be just as unforgettable—and way more budget-friendly.

Follow along on an unforgettable 18-hour day trip from Seoul to Gangneung, where K-pop dreams come true at the iconic BTS Bus Stop from You Never Walk Alone. From serene beaches and cozy cafes to immersive art and tofu gelato, this journey is the perfect blend of fandom, relaxation, and coastal charm—ideal for BTS fans and travel lovers alike.
