The city’s diverse culinary scene and luxurious resorts also make it an attractive destination for those looking to relax and unwind.

2. Paris, France

The timeless charm of Paris remains irresistible to Korean tourists. As the city of love and romance, Paris offers a rich tapestry of art, history, and culture. From the Eiffel Tower and Louvre Museum to charming cafes and boutiques, the French capital promises an unforgettable experience. Koreans particularly enjoy strolling along the Seine River, exploring the historic neighborhoods of Montmartre and Le Marais, and dining at Michelin-starred restaurants. The allure of Paris lies in its ability to offer both grand historical sights and intimate, authentic experiences.
