Q . Could you briefly introduce yourself?

I'm Chris I come from Bulgaria in 2016 I came for a startup program. I was supposed to stay here 6 months only but I fall in love with Korean people, Korean nature and culture. And here I am 8 years later living in South Korea.

Q . Could you recommend must-visit place in Korea?

📍Deoksugung Palace / 99 Sejong-daero, Jung District, Seoul

I picked Deoksugung Palace for a very personal reason. It's one of the five royal palaces of the Johnson Dynasty here in Seoul and it's not the biggest one but it's very beautiful. It's a combination of old style buildings with a new building. Representing the transition of Joseon into the Korean empire into the new current state that we all know admire love and want to come visit.

This place is not too busy. It's quite touristy but it's very convenient in the middle of the city very easy accessible also, you can grab a coffee and just walk around, sit in a nice area and think about life, think about your future, think about your plan. So it's one of the reasons I really enjoy coming here.

Thank you very much for listening to my story. I hope it was an inspiration for some of you and probably you should come visit Deoksugung Palace on your next trip to South Korea.
