Well, I think we were lucky to get our flight ticket in very cheap deal from Air Asia X in end of May 2017. And our flight was 20th-26th June 2017. We haven't did any research for this trip but we booked the ticket which only give us about 2-3 weeks of preparation. Enough time for doing itinerary???? Seriously, I think we were crazy. After calm down and start doing it, I felt like thank god for the wisdom. We did manage well in just 2 weeks plus time. So enough time? For me is a "Yes"!
First of all you need this application "visit korea" or you can visit their page "visit korea". This may help you on itinerary for travel highlights, entrance fee, business hour and most important transportation to get there. Lots of information you can get it by this page.
Secondly, get the application "Korea Subway Bus". This could help you in their subway or bus line inter-change, and cost of each trip.
Third, remember to get a T-money card in CU convenient store that cost about 2000won at Incheon Airport then top up money. This card is really really convenient. You can use it in their subway, metro bus, Taxi with T-money sign and any of the convenient store. Benefits that you can get discount up to 4 transit in a day if you are using T-money instead of normal trip ticket. They provide you seoul subway map and some entrance coupons. You can top up in any convenient store with T-money sign or ticket vending machine in any subway station.
Lastly, although some of the tourist place provide free WiFi but we still rental a Pocket WiFi from "Travel Recommends" for our convenient on doing any emergency research, google translate and of course update our social media.
Poor in Korean language?? I guess it wasn't a big problem if you did your itinerary well and learn some basic greeting Korean words will be fine. Most of the tourist area will provide information counter that can speak fluent English.
I hope this could helps you a lot!! Happy researching and enjoy your trip.
