I also preferred to get the multiple T money card which is very convenient, all u need is to re-charge it & it's less hassle! I love the subway in Korea, it's clean, safe but the only setback i had as well as my sister's who traveled w/me was the walking distance to transfer from one station to the next, we always wore comfortable running shoes, other than that, Korea really is a very nice place to go for tourists! I also liked that concept of having those glass doors for safety of passengers - excellent indeed! Before leaving Korea, my sis & I were pretty much familiar with the subway's in & out & we were both elated by that, we felt we're able to accomplish something :) Thnx for sharing, this is really helpful for first timers in Korea.

I get about 30-40 emails from individuals a day and I only have about an hour to answer them during the weekdays. I don't have access to computers from 11AM to 9PM (I commute and work during that time) and I reserve my evenings for my family. I might have missed your email, because like I said I get about 30-40 a day on this email address alone. That's not counting the emails I get on my other email. Oh I have four very active email accounts. So I apologize if I missed it. Hi Rosita! I get about 30-40 emails from individuals a day and I only have about an hour to answer them during the weekdays.

Maybe you misunderstood that I was asking you to give me accomodation. Far be it. I find your website very informative and you have helped a lot of people, giving needed info. So I was very disappointed when you did not answer me. I am planning to go there for a month or month and a half. I've checked the hostels but they charged by the nite no matter how long you stay and hard to get a single room. I will be travelling alone. Package tours are only a week and I find that too hectic a schedule. I like to enjoy the city and its surrounding at a leisurely pace. I like to make friends in Korea before I get there and was hoping to make friends with you but my emails had been ignored. Can you please tell me why? Dear Betchay,

By the way the sliding door to stop suicide jumpers is an idea that should have been implemented long time ago, thanx for interesting pictures. Mrs Betchay is brave one taking train on third day.
