Fishrmanchoi's City Guides • Busan
But as someone who has lived in this coastal city for many years, I see it differently.
It is the vibrant beating heart that welcomes every visitor with open arms, offering a sensory overload that signals you have finally arrived in the dynamic south of Korea.
Arriving at Busan Station
The journey usually begins on the KTX high-speed train, cutting through the Korean peninsula from Seoul or Daejeon.
As the train slows and the announcement chimes, the anticipation builds.
Stepping onto the platform, you are immediately immersed in Busan’s distinct energy: the salty tang of the sea breeze, the rhythmic dialect of the locals, and the faint, enticing aroma of street food drifting from the concourse.
