National Museum of Korea
The public transportation system/metro can be confusing at first but eventually becomes quite simple, and it can be easy to manage if you get the app for it (we did not). So if you are able to get data there, I would recommend that to make getting around easier. Typically I would look at the destinations near a metro station. Some things maybe be closed one random day so that may help you in coming up with a plan. There are a number of things within walking distance of each other. So, for example, if you wanted to do the palaces, you could get off at a station near them, do Gyeongbokgung, Changdeokgung (also near Jognymo Shrine) and then head over to Insadong which is nearby before maybe catching the metro to somewhere to enjoy the nightlife if you are into that. There is a really big club and bar scene, though we mostly just drank at home though haha. We really like the flavored soju which you can get at any 7/11 and just drink on the streets if you feel like haha

Oh I forgot to mention that a jimjilbang would be a good cold weather activity!

We have been thinking about making a post along these lines, maybe we will do it sometime before you leave :). I think some of the top things to do are: at least one of the palaces: Gyeongbokgung or Changdeokgung, a cute cafe of some sort (like the hello kitty, poop, etc.) or cute food like the ice cream we got in Myeongdong, Korea has lots of cutsey stuff (unless you are not into that), something with a good view of the city: Seoul Tower has a good view and you can also hike there via Seoul City Wall (though we did not do this as we did a different part of the wall which was nice and is also an option for you), or Ansan Trail. A lot of people talk about Itaewon but we did not think it was too special, same with Gangnam (though we did miss out on going to the Samsung D’light which is allegedly neat there). I liked the area of Insadong which is close to some of the palaces so you could combine that. The National Museum was pretty neat as well. Seoul really has a lot to offer: nature, food, technology, history, etc. Ultimately it depends on the types of things you are into.

I know, it’s bad. Unfortunately, I’ve even found myself giving decent reviews to less than perfect places (due to the reasons I described) but I do think it’s important to leave an honest review and am trying to do better.
