"First things first—grab that cozy jacket or your favorite warm clothes because autumn is here! It’s a bit windy, but oh-so-nice. Don’t forget your comfy shoes; we’ll be doing a lot of walking to soak in the beauty of Jeonju! And make sure to bring your essentials: ID, cash, debit/credit cards, and an umbrella, just in case the rain decides to join the party! 😂☔️"

BUS, WALK

I rolled into Jeonju bus terminal around 9:30 in the morning after a 1.5-hour ride from Daejeon. You can also catch a KTX or train from Seoul that takes about the same time, and my bus ticket is around 10,000 KRW. The first stop on my bucket list is Na Hee Do's House from the hit drama *Twenty Five-Twenty One* (스물다섯 스물하나)! This place looks just like it does in the drama, so of course, I had to snap a picture while I was there. It’s super easy to find—just search for Jeonju Hanok Village on Naver Map, which happens to be my next destination after soaking up the vibes at Na Hee DO's house. Once I finished admiring Na Hee Do's house, I made my way to the nearby Hanbyeok Tunnel, another iconic filming location from the drama. As you enter the tunnel, you’ll spot a lovely lake (or maybe it’s a river? Haha!). It’s the perfect spot to unwind with nature, so don’t forget to take a memorable video or even recreate a scene from the drama! After my epic drama tour, I headed back to the Jeonju Hanok Village area—still nearby—and recharged with one of Jeonju’s signature dishes: Kimchi Kongnamuguksu. This delicious dish features well-fermented kimchi served as soup with kongnamu (bean sprouts) and topped with eggs. It’s light, fresh, and a little spicy (though for me, it wasn’t spicy at all because I love spicy food!). If you can't eat spicy thing, you can ordered for the non-spicy version. I dined at 신뱅이 (Sinbaengi), a legendary restaurant also known for being foreign-friendly, with an owner who spoke English quite well. The meal was delectable and cost just 8,000 KRW! Once I was fueled up, I set out to explore the enchanting Jeonju Hanok Village. You can even try on a hanbok, traditional Korean attire, and feel like royalty as you stroll through the historical streets. I also visited the Tourist Information Center to gather more information about Jeonju. A special shoutout to the staff who kindly allowed me to use the nursery room for prayers—thank you for being so helpful! As the afternoon rolled in, I couldn’t resist trying Jeonju’s famous street food: 십원빵 (10 won coin cakes), 오짱 (deep-fried squid), and 닭꼬치 (chicken skewers). The 십원빵 is a delightful little cake with cheese inside—just the right balance of sweetness for 3,000 KRW. The 오짱 is crispy fried squid, and I opted for the spicy flavor—it was sooo good! Just be prepared to wait in a long line, but don’t worry, they serve you quickly for 13,000 KRW. And I had to get the 닭꼬치, tender chicken skewers topped with cheese (you can skip the cheese for a cheaper option!). These were 6,000 KRW with cheese or 5,000 KRW without. After an entire day of exploring, I can confidently say Jeonju is a must-visit spot in Korea! It’s easily accessible, has a fantastic atmosphere, delicious food, and will surely create unforgettable memories during your stay.
