Frequently asked questions

Is KoreaTravel Guru free?

Yes. Browsing places, maps, and guides is completely free. You don't need an account to explore.

How do you choose the places?

Every place is curated and reviewed before it goes live. We combine our own research with recommendations from travelers and locals, so the map stays focused on spots that are genuinely worth your time — not an endless directory.

Do I need an account?

No account is needed to browse. You'll only need to sign in to add a place, save favorites, or leave a review. Sign-in is passwordless — we send you a magic link or a one-time code, so there's no password to remember.

Can I add a place?

Absolutely — that's the point. Head to Add a Place and submit your spot. Submissions are reviewed before they appear on the map.

I found wrong information. How do I report it?

Every place page has a report link (for example, if the hours or address are outdated, or the place has closed). You don't need an account to send a report — just tell us what's off and we'll review it.

I own a business listed here. Can I manage it?

Yes. Open your place's page and use "Claim this listing" to request ownership. Once verified, you'll be able to keep your listing accurate.

How do I contact you?

Use our contact page. It's also where you can make a privacy request to review, update, or delete your personal information.
