Next month!!! Nervous!! Help!?

[smorriskc]

I will be visiting Korea for 2 weeks in July!!! 7th-22. My Korean is improving, but it's no where NEAR where I'd like it to be for this trip. This is also my first time flying anywhere and I am nervous as ever. I am staying with some of my senior students that just graduated from the school where I teach and they are taking me all around Seoul and *hopefully* taking me to a Super Junior concert!!!!!!! ^________^ Yes, that's right, I admit that I LOOOOVE Super Junior.

Are there any places that I should go see besides the ones posted in the "things to do in Seoul in 24 hours"? Anything I should eat? Anyone I should meet (besides Super Junior, of course)?

Is there anything I should know about traveling in general...like what kinds and how much of medicine can I bring with me from the States (mainly Tylenol PM I hope!), do they ask you in English or Korean at customs when you arrive at Incheon...

I'm really nervous about missing my flight out of San Fran to Seoul because I don't know what I'm doing when it comes to retrieving my baggage or knowing where to go to get it, or any of that. I don't know anything about baggage check or ticketing or anything....I am freaking CLUELESS. I am flying from Kansas City to San Francisco, then San Fran to Seoul. My layover in San Fran is 4 hours (if I arrive on time), which I hear is a pretty good time to get through customs and security, but I'm still worried!

^_^ imagine how nervous I am going to be when the time gets closer?!

Thanks in advance for your responses!!!!!

thanks for the tips!~~~~

I don't know if I'm going to see Super Junior for sure, but I am really really really hoping that person pulls through...although 1 ticket is 77,000W..T_T

I hope everything will go smoothly for you and I know it will!

As for the places to check out, I highly recommend meeting a lot of Korean people because that way your trip will become much more memorable If you're interested in meeting up and making some Korean friends, please let me know!! I'm trying to organize regular (and more frequent) walks around Seoul and also some samgyeopsal meet-ups Hehe.

We had our first walk on the 13th of June, and the next walk will be on the 4th of July if you're interested For some pictures, http://blog.naver.com/ke2565/40069989029 Check out this link , it's a blog page written by Gyeong-eun, my cohost for the Intermediate and above lessons
