Wonderful hostels in Seoul await you

Seoul is known for its love of gadgets, cutting-edge technology, and deliciously spicy food. It's a backpacker's paradise, with so many interesting things to do, and a great starting point for seeing many of South Korea's lesser-known spots. South Korea's capital is intriguing, engaging, and shockingly inexpensive. Even while Seoul is known for its glitzy clubs, sophisticated retail malls, and pricey restaurants, it is not impossible to visit on a budget. Hostels in Seoul are especially popular in the Itaewon and Hongdae neighborhoods. You may choose to stay near the city center or a few kilometers out, yet still close to all public transportation.
