    What to Pack

    South Korea is a relatively formal country, and as such, the

    dress is, too. Formal and smart casual wear is

    recommended.

    During the winter months, pack warm and wear layers. It

    can get quite cold and even snowy.

    Comfortable walking shoes and an umbrella will be useful.

    Packing according to the season and areas you will be

    visiting is the smartest way of traveling to South Korea.

    Due to restricted weight limits on all the Domestic flights

    (20kg, or, 44 pounds) it is recommended that you travel

    light.

    Electronic chargers for your camera, phone, iPad, etc. andextra camera memory card(s).

    Electrical converter and adapter. South Koreas voltage is

    220V, and uses a two-pin plug in.
