A 5-day and 5-night free trip to Seoul, South Korea, I've come to share the total expenses as I promised, sisters

A 5-day and 5-night free trip to Seoul, South Korea, I've come to share the total expenses as I promised, sisters. Here comes the breakdown: round trip 3500-1200+ shopping 2300=7000. The rest is for dining. The cheapest meal in Korea is the knife-cut noodles at Guangzang Market for 5000, and the average meal should be around 5000-20000. I didn't keep track of how much each meal was, sometimes friends treated me, so I can only estimate roughly for the cost of meals. Of course, the better the food, the more expensive it gets! Now that the airfare has dropped, it will be much cheaper. The hotel cost is for one person for 5 nights, located in Cheongdam-dong. The itinerary is at the end, but it might not be very reference-worthy. I think preparing about 9000 should definitely be enough, without crazy shopping. This time I spent just over 8000. Preparations for going abroad: For short-term trips abroad, you can buy a data SIM card. I bought one for 6 days and it cost 51.8. You get a free travel adapter when you buy a data SIM card, but if you have many devices to charge, you might want to bring your own power strip. You can buy a Tmoney card in advance online (I got mine from someone else, so it didn't cost me anything). It can be used for buses, subways, taxis, and shopping at convenience stores. You can top up your card at convenience stores and subway stations. After arriving in Korea, take the airport bus. The bus fare is a fixed charge of 17000, and you can pay by card or buy a ticket. In Korea, you must tap your card when boarding and alighting the bus. If you forget to tap, you'll be charged for the full journey (the base fare for both bus and subway seems to be 1250).
