If you want more of our experience in Seoul, check out this video. It's long, but has many exciting parts, like when I film in the electronics market which is apparently illegal and when we get stuck on the elephant cart in the snow. Special memories.
We are Marisa and Jordan. We are generally happy, and tall, and always fancy. And we teach English in Gunsan, South Korea. ...More

go adventurers!
Great video. I like the Soho hat. I like the Dunkin Donuts. I like the drinking fountain. I like the snow (wish I were there). I like the electronics market. I like the hostel (how much did that cost?). I like the fast train (how much did that cost, compared to the bus?).
You guys are great adventurers ("an adventurer is never lost!" "this is an experience I refuse to be denied!"). You will have a great time in Turkey.
The hostel was $13 per night
The hostel was $13 per night per person, for a 4 person mixed room. As for the train, there are various speeds you can get, but overall it's fairly comparable to the bus (in general you pay less to get somewhere in the same amount of time by train).
Speaking words of wisdom...
Thank you! Right at the end of that video, you finally provided me with the proof I need when I tell people that departing and arriving Korean trains play a Koreanized instrumental version of "Let it Be." Those underseat heaters can be a bloody nuisance for the heat-sensitive, and sometimes for everyone; I was on one train with a malfunctioning heater that was putting out enough energy to cook a turkey (I admit that it was slightly amusing to watch people sit down, utter a small shriek, and quickly stand up again.)
Anyway, the trip looked great (I also need to check Seoul out properly, but I think that Japan has left me with no money.) Um, maybe I missed it, but how many days did you spend there? (Two? Three?) Did you see the ruins of Namdaemun (boy, we had great timing there)?
