2024 South Korea Trip Day 1 : Welcome to seoul

Image
The plan is now set into motion (after countless of hours of research) and after 12 years,  I am back again in Seoul. This time around the plane landed in ICN T2 and I took Korean Air.    ICN T2 is like a budget terminal and it seems like nothing much was there.
