Amazing trip - we learned how South Koreans honor ancestors from the North whose graves they cannot visit, saw saw a historic Capitol site, the home in exile of a future king, a megalithic monument, a magical forested monastery at sunset, all in one day! The island itself is beautiful and a nice escape from the bustle of Seoul. Highly recommended day trip.
