Reader Sheryl (and I!) would like to thank everyone who offered such great suggestions when she asked about fun things to do in Seoul.

Sheryl says, “I have actually kinda figured out how to get tickets for Yoon Do Hyun’s Love Letter and thought the least I can do as a return gesture for those who shared their suggestions was to kinda share the ticket booking process.”

So thank you Sheryl, and hopefully somebody will find these tips useful!

Instructions:

Unless you know any of the producers of the show, KBS staff or Yoon Do Hyun himself (KBS contact number is +82 (0) 2 781 1000; ask the operator for “YDH’s Love Letter” extension), tickets are assigned online. You would have to register with KBS and if one is a foreigner who is staying overseas, KBS will ask for some sort of ID confirmation to be faxed/e-mailed over. This confirmation process will take a while so anyone planning to visit Seoul in the next few months should register now.

As I didn’t have the time factor, my friend contacted her friend living in Seoul to register (process is quicker). Once you’ve registered, you would be required to log in to KBS, enter Yoon Do Hyun’s Love Letter’s webpage and book audience tickets (please correct me if I’m wrong: I think the tab will be called “Pang Cheong An Nae”). KBS then I believe calls you back to inform you whether your ticket booking has been successful and then proceeds to send you the tickets to your mailing address. I never got as far as that as my friend’s friend has yet to inform me whether her booking was successful.

Good luck!

Reader Sheryl is heading to Seoul soon and wrote in to ask for recommendations on great places to visit. Since it’s been a while since I’ve been to Seoul, I thought I’d open up the question to everyone here. Help a reader out!

She writes:

Any recommendations (sights, food places, random music cafes) for a first time tourist? Despite being a first timer in Seoul, I’m actually looking out for the not-so-tourist places to visit.

I think the biggest plan is trying to get on The Love Letter with Yoon Do Hyun for the measly 5 days I will be there.. hahaha. Historical sites are already all over the internet so I’m trying to find more I suppose not-so-tourist-like places I can visit to kinda see different faces of Seoul. I largely would like to eat some good local food, do some good CD shopping (and random stuff) and hopefully, visit a good open mic session. And oh yeah, stalk the SM Entertainment building.. hahaha.

Any suggestions will be greatly appreciated!

C’mon, I know you know the answers!
