Hey everyone! So I'm finally planning a trip to Seoul in a few months and honestly I'm so excited but also kinda overwhelmed lol. I know Gangnam and Apgujeong are like THE spots for beauty stuff, but I'm not sure which area would actually be best for someone like me who wants to get some treatments done without going totally crazy on travel time.

I'm wondering — if you guys have been to Seoul for beauty stuff, where did you end up staying? Did you pick your accommodation based on being near clinics, or did you just go for a nice neighborhood vibe? I'm thinking I want to explore a bit too, not just clinic-hop for a whole week 😅

Also curious what people actually think about those different areas from a visitor perspective? Like is one neighborhood way more walkable than another, or are they all pretty similar in terms of getting around? I don't want to end up in a super touristy area but I also don't want to feel totally lost haha.

Any advice from folks who've done this before would be amazing! Especially about balancing the beauty side with actually enjoying the city. Thanks in advance!
