Discover Why Busan is a Great Travel Destination But May Not Be Perfect for Everyone

They say Busan leaves an unforgettable mark on every visitor’s heart—
so I eagerly planned my trip during this year’s cherry blossom season to experience its magic firsthand.
But fate had other plans—
despite spending four days and three nights there (with just three full days after travel),
I was greeted by nothing but gloomy skies, with only half a day of glorious sunshine. [heartbroken]

When the sun did peek through, Busan transformed into paradise.
The sparkling sea took my breath away,
while the coastal trails filled my lungs with crisp ocean air and earthy spring fragrances.
Losing myself in the rhythmic waves became my favorite meditation.
There’s something magical in Busan’s breeze—
I survived on coffee alone, never feeling hunger’s pang. [amused]
Though I indulged in just one proper meal daily, each left me utterly content.

Perhaps Busan truly is spectacular—
but it only gave me the briefest glimpse of its charm. [wistful]
While I may not journey here specifically again,
I’d happily detour from Seoul if guaranteed perfect weather.
Dear Busan, next time we meet,
promise to show me your full splendor? Deal?
