South Korea 7 days perfect for Korean honeymoon + slow travel — Olle walking trails (26 coastal routes) + Udo Island (ferry day trip) + extended Aewol café days + Korean spa.
A full week is enough to actually understand Jeju Island. Three days for the major districts, three days for nearby regions, and one day for the offbeat neighborhoods most tourists miss. The back half of the trip is more about texture than checking landmarks — your photos get more diverse and you walk away with a three-dimensional sense of the city.
