But during this pandemic, you might be curious whether there are places in South Korea that are even safe for local tourists to explore. Well, in Busan, there are plenty — even considering COVID-19.

We’ll name a few for you: the Oryukdo Skywalk, where you can enjoy a stunning ocean view of Busan; the Jeoryeong Coastal Trail, where you can go on a stroll and behold the glittering ocean at same time; and of course, Hocheon Village, which was a famous filming location of Park Seo-joon’s Fight For My Way. Busan has loads of outdoor attractions which are perfect for those yearning to feel the sun and breeze on their skin, a welcome treat after bearing with pandemic restrictions for so long.
