Missed my Seoul December 2010 attraction discounts post? Here's another one for you! The Korea Tourism Organization (KTO) has a coupon book available for travelers to Korea until June 30, 2011 (UPDATE 2014 below). What's great about this coupon book is that you can view an online version to see if you want it or not. The online preview includes introductions and directions to various locations in Seoul. They obviously want you to have the best experience. There are discounts and gifts for performances, food, shopping, beauty and medical services for every traveler.
They offer discounts for the Nanta, Lotte World, Everland, Drawing Show, Korea House, Etude House and The Face Shop among many others. Here's a link to the Full Online Preview of the Coupon Book.
