I have a couple more to add.

Geoje Do (Island) on the southern coast. When you get into the national park there is very little development but you can still find a few places to stay. Totally beautiful!


Also on the south coast near Yeosu is Hyang Gil Am (Temple). It sits high on a cliff overlooking the sea. You have to walk through narrow passages of rock to get around the temple grounds.



Notable Mentions:
Im a big fan of Hahoe Folk Village in Andong
Though its always busy, Songnisan is my favorite mountain

I think Dok-to island is worth a visit it"s that desputed island with Japan. I'm not a ban fan of Korean temples once you'll seen one you've pretty much seen them all. The temples in Thailand are much more impressive

I agree with you there, but Hyanggilam is different. I was very tired of temples by the time I had seen this one. Just the fact that its on the side of a mountain overlooking the sea is amazing.

Live and wiggling octopus. Actually there are some who will swollow the whole octopus still alive. If those suction cups gte a hold of your throught it can be fatal. One Korean became a Darwin award from that.
