Not a blog, but I've noticed a lot of bloggers in Korea are kind enough to write up not only where they've gone, and their impressions but also pop down the itineraries they used, or other helpful details such as hotel, jimjillbang addresses, bus numbers, times and routes. This is awesome, and I love it!
Unfortunately, its also extremely hard to find the relevant blogs from a Google search, and this index will inevitably overflow into many, many pages spanning a variety of blog-topics.
On the flip side, there is
Wikitravel.
My request here is please, please,
please consider spending about ten minutes after any such trip to pop up some info! Wikitravel for Korea is presently exceptionally limited, and contains a scary proportion of Konglish "useful information" provided by various tourism bureaus instead of genuine impressions that typify the English speaking, group-tourism shunning mindset. Additionally, given the "book everything in advance" nature of bus and train ticketing in Korea, prior knowledge of how to get to where you're going, minus all the fluffy spoilers and photos of a conventional travelbook is sweet.
I've been using it myself for some time now and was slow to start contributing -- beginning only recently in fact, being the lazy sod I am -- but it is nice to know that your info will be helpful to someone else down the line (even if that time is a year away in the case of events and festivals). I've heard rumours of all sorts of funny ol' licensing issues with Wikitravel, but despite that it beats the alternative. Plus, the wiki format is exceptionally compatible with Google's mobile reformatting service, so provided your phone isn't a complete POS that crashes all the time like mine, you can even access it on the go, like Saturday evening after a festival when you realise you just missed that last intercity bus and can't find a hotel.
