🧠 Who This Is For
Unplugged Seoul isn’t a tour. It’s a reset.
For solo wanderers, soft introverts, and screen-tired souls.
If you’ve ever felt overstimulated, invisible, or like Seoul was happening to you — instead of with you — this is your space to exhale.
💌 Why I Made This (For You)
One of the biggest reasons I started Unplugged Seoul was because I kept noticing quiet, shy, awkward-looking people wandering alone.
And to be honest — sometimes when I’m out laughing with friends, I catch someone watching from a distance. Not just curious — disconnected. Maybe even lonely.
That’s when it hit me: they deserve a space too.
In a city that moves fast, it’s easy to feel like you’re in the way. So what do you do? You look at your phone. Not because you need to — but because it makes you look occupied. Even if it makes you feel more alone.
This is for the quiet ones who want to experience the real Seoul — but don’t know where to start. Especially those caught in that loop: isolation → screen → more isolation.
Unplugged Seoul gently breaks that cycle.
