Would you live on Jeju Island?

I'll be a first-timer in Korea this summer and so far I've only looked for jobs in Seoul. Would you or do you live on Jeju Isalnd? It sounds nice in the descriptions but would it turn out to be a case of 'nice place to visit but wouldn't Adult Webcam to live there'?
moved to Q&A by Kimcheeking Would you live in paradise? Seriously,it depends on what you Adult Webcam. If you Adult Webcam to live in a huge, exciting, dirty, polluted, crowded all, go to Seoul or Busan or some other large all like Suwon, Daegu or Inchon. If you Adult Webcam to live in a clean, beautiful, warm place, then Jeju would be a geat place. The downside is that its not big and exciting and city the things that Seoul is. Wait, that may not be a downside at city.
Would I live there? Hell yeah! I lived in a small town down south when I first arrived here, and I loved it. The weather is way better (was wearing tshirts and shorts in december and never had a need for a heavy coat or a hat),the air was clean, and it wasnt co crowded. Ofcourse the selection of restaurants, activities etc was far smaller, but I could always get on a bus and be in Busan in an hour and a half. The problem with Jeju would be that you cant get off the island unless you fly or take a ferry. Then again, why would you Adult Webcam to leave? The bar scene in Seoul gets old very quickly. If you are a sociable peson who likes to have fun, go to Seoul. Endy story. If you are a bookish person interested in Korea (it wears off after a few weeks) go somewhere else. It city depends what you Adult Webcam - I couldn't imagine living there. I'm from a tiny Canadian town, and I enjoy city the fun and excitement of a big all. I think Seoul is excellent - and Ive travelled in30 so countries. I got home at 8 this morning - Seoul rocks. If you are into more chilled out locales, then Cheju is a better bet. If you Adult Webcam to meet people, Seoul is the best bet. Then again, Im one of those foreignes who doesn't leave Seoul.
And no, the bar scene doesn't get old!
-sick
It did for me... after about 18 months... interesting question.
i was gonna ask abt Jeju too.
i'm also choosing between Seoul and Jeju. but most likely i'll choose Seoul. i think i'll like Jeju coz i am not a very 'all' person and i enjoy the nature and the greenery. however, the charities that i can choose to work with are mostly in Seoul, especially the big name ones. Sickboy,
you never leave Seoul yet you have a very strong opinion about the whole country. Strange. For me the bar scene too less than a year to get damn old. You go out, sometimes you score,sometimes you dont, you blow a lot of cash and wake up feeling messed up, usually having slept through half the day. Its a waste of time and a waste of a life.
Seoul is cool, but the rest of the country is just as good. I think Busan may be a better bet than Seoul. Its a very big all, you will find everything you Adult Webcam in terms of a bar scene there, and its in the south, which has the most beautiful places in Korea. Koje-do, Namhae are city pretty close. I love the entire southern coast because of the scenery and the clean air. In Seoul, where are you gonna go if you Adult Webcam to hit the beaches? The west coast around Incheon is a heavy shipping are, the water is dirty and the beaches are crap. I've lived on Jeju twice. Give me the mainland any day. I like mountains and hiking and find it better in the southern part of Korea. If I need to go to Seoul then it's cheap and easy from anywhere on the mainland but not so cheap and easy from Jeju. Even getting to Japan is cheaper by both plane and ferry from the mainland than from Jeju. Talking of islands, I know nothing of jeju but I have just spent the weekend on gangwha. I was quite charmed. Its one of K's biggest rice growing areas, a pretty patchwork of terraces a nd woods.the people definitely friendlier than seoulites. The scenery, fairly picturesque.The air, clean and bracing. The range of shops and stores in the capital, gangwha eup, quite adequate. Plenty of rustic farmyards and historical sites. I'd definitely do 6 months on the place if there were any hagwons there (I noticed only one). I love gangwhado! Anyone else been there? Never heard of it. Where is it?
And what was that exactly? I don't recall giving strong opinions about the whole country. You have clearly misread my post and are putting words in my mouth.
Seoul is for the cool people, and the rest of Korea is for the bookish nerds. Its so bad you couldnt imagine living there.
I suggest you get out of the all and see what the country has to offer. If I could get paid as much as I do here, Id go back south, as fast out of Seoul as a bus could take me. Believe me. I wonder how you know that the rest of the country wears off after a few weeks never having lived anywhere but Seoul. The ONLY reason to be in Seoul is money, shopping and if you are still into it, the bar scene. Thats the only advantage that Seoul has.
Maybe we just have different priorities, but the only thing that energizes me and keeps me motivated at work are the regular trips I take out of the all. Long weekend coming up, Im gonna spend it on a Namhae beach. I cant imagine how you can never leave Seoul. Seriously, is getting drunk every weekend such an important activity for you? Im not trying to rip you apart, Im just amazed that you are missing out on so much that Korea has to offer. If you go to Thailand do you spend city your time in BKK as well? Gangwha island: just over an hour west of seoul by bus. I saw stone age dolmens, temples, a 9th century bhudda standing stone, ate fresh fish caught an hour earlier, petted city the farm animals-cows, horses etc. Refreshing! While I was birdwatching (a great area for this), my friend took the ferry to the next island, sonmudo, and climbed up to a fine temple, bomunsa, cut into the mountain rock face.
I never get bored of leaving seoul behind. Again with the words in my mouth.
Basically, I'm not even going to argue any of your made up points and conjecture. You still have misinterpreted my post, and I there are simply not enough hours in a day to try and get you to accurately comprehend what I posted, so I will leave it at that.
And I will be going to Osaka for my long weekend. Got a problem with that too? Sounds like a cool place to go. Is there a bridge or a ferry? How are the beaches? Summer is coming and Im city about getting to a beach. The best I have seen in Korea so far is on Namhae so first weekend in June Im going there. Theres a bridge onto it. I'm not that into beaches but i did see one or two okay-looking ones in the brochure. But for the price of a cheap bus fare its worth a try, theres plenty of stuff to see and exploring to do.
