South Korea
Seoul is one of the great city stays: safe at 3 a.m., wired to the gills, with mountains inside the city limits and food that costs a fraction of Tokyo's. Korea's Working Holiday agreements and the new workcation visa make it a realistic long-stay option.
Nhập cảnh và visa
Many nationalities can enter for up to 90 days without a visa; several must obtain a K-ETA electronic authorisation first (temporary exemptions for some countries have been extended more than once, so check the K-ETA site). Working Holiday visas (H-1) cover around 25 countries, ages 18 to 30. The Digital Nomad (Workcation, F-1-D) visa launched in 2024 requires a high income threshold.
