KoreanHunter Posted November 15, 2010 Share Posted November 15, 2010 Hello everyone, my friends and I are new to geocaching. I stumbled upon the application a few weeks ago and now I am hooked. Each weekend kreepinitreal, trevbot and orudongcreeper get out there, hunt for caches and take in this great country. Quote Link to comment

+LestISmiteThee Posted November 9, 2011 Share Posted November 9, 2011 (edited) Hey there! My name is Gally, and my husband Nick and I live near Osan. Since we'll be here for a couple years, we'd like to meet fellow cachers in the area. We've been to the meet-and-greet in Seoul and had a great time, but unfortunately it's too far away to make it sometimes on a tight schedule. Hopefully we can meet some cachers a little closer to home, or even just some fellow gamers/hikers :] Feel free to PM me; I don't always check the forums.

kristinhope Posted November 21, 2011 Share Posted November 21, 2011 I live in Dongducheon and my Geocaching iPhone app doesn't work up here. Does anyone else have that problem? It says that no caches can be found. I want to find my first cache here but I only have my iPhone to cache with. Please help! Quote Link to comment
CSimpson11 Posted February 20, 2012 Share Posted February 20, 2012 Anyone in the Dongducheon area want to go caching? Quote Link to comment
+NevaP Posted June 19, 2012 Share Posted June 19, 2012 Hi, I just discovered this topic in the Asian forum. I will doing my first (and probably only) trip to Korea August 17-28 accompanying my husband to attend the International Congress of Entomology(ICE)which is being held at EXCO in Daegu August 19-25. We will have a jet lag recovery day August 18,staying near the Incheon airport and then fly to Daegu on the 19th. After the congress we are doing a Jeju Island tour August 25-27. We will be back at Incheon overnight August 27 and I have noted that the TB hotel cache is close to the hotel we are using that night. Looking at caches using the geocaching app on Google Earth I see that there are none close to EXCO. We are staying in the Interpark Motel in that area. The congress offers a variety of local area tours and I will be doing a number of these. I might have a chance to grab a cache but this isn't always possible with a tour group. Once we have the details of the congress schedule I will look for a day my husband has some free time and we might be able to take a taxi to one of the parks which has a number of caches. I see a lot of caches on Jeju so I probably will have a chance to get a few there. I'll welcome suggestions and information. It's a busy week but I would be happy to meet local cachers if possible. And I would be delighted if anyone could hide a cache(large enough enough for small travel bugs) in the EXCO area. I see what looks like a big park with no caches (Daebul Park?) right there. Thanks.

+DRA6N Posted August 7, 2012 Share Posted August 7, 2012 Anybody near Seoul? I'll be there the first of November for a year and really wanna get a lot of caches there as well as from nearby countries. Quote Link to comment
+Surfszup Posted November 12, 2012 Share Posted November 12, 2012 Anybody near Seoul? I'll be there the first of November for a year and really wanna get a lot of caches there as well as from nearby countries. I'm in Seoul. There is a regular group that gets together as well at N 37° 32.300 E 126° 58.020. If I remember correctly the second Saturday of ever month in the morning, 1000 -1130 and the last Friday of every month ...... not sure of the time but there is an event symbol on the geocache map at the coords I provided.

+Viajero Perdido Posted August 28, 2014 Share Posted August 28, 2014 Hi. Until this morning, I was planning a visit to South Korea for caching, and of course to experience the culture, food, etc. My main motivation was several caches on a mountain ridge that were placed six years ago and never found. This is the game-within-a-game that I play, lonely FTFs. This morning I noticed they've been archived for no apparent reason. And digging further, I see odd things going on. Multiple player accounts by (apparently) one person, and caches being archived by the thousands. This is too unpredictable for me. I'm not getting on a plane for 10+ hours knowing that the caching scene might change dramatically just before I get there. Sorry, I need a stable caching destination. I'll keep searching.

+ttettu Posted September 4, 2014 Share Posted September 4, 2014 (edited) This is test. Oops! Can not delete this. Happy Geocaching. Edited September 4, 2014 by ttettu Quote Link to comment
+hzoi Posted October 19, 2014 Share Posted October 19, 2014 We had a great week in Korea at the end of September. We were visiting friends near Yangju, so geocaching was an activity but not a priority. Still, many names here look familiar from caches and cache logs (especially New Yorker, whose caches we've also found in Arizona). Thanks to all for hiding caches for us to find!

Welcome to Korea! Hello! How many people are in the group? I might be interested in coming along. I've been finding a few caches around the Bundang area, local to me, but they're all micro caches. I'm looking forward to finding some caches that you can actually put things in! Quote Link to comment
