Today we’re back in South Korea to ride their ORIGINAL high-speed train!
We’ll be riding the ‘Train to Busan’, made famous my the eponymous zombie film, however this 305km/h (190mph) capable KTX-1 is far from a scary experience… so come with me and let’s check it out together!

At least the main thing is, you manged to get to Busan without the dead bothering you on your travels there.
15:05 They do. First class passengers of KTX and SRT (but not for superior class at KTX-Eum and KTX-Cheongryong) are offered free snack packs and bottled water, but most likely you need to go to the vestibules to get them by yourself – in rare occasions train attendants would distribute them.
Great video.
Did you know that before Samsung went into the electronic and white goods market, they made instant noodles?
I did this journey a couple of years ago and was very impressed.
Great trip, and yeah that thumbnail 😂😂😂. It's great you try the original KTX which based from TGV. Can't wait for you to try the brand new KTX and comparing the seats among all of KTX Train. Also can't wait for you to try the Ferry from South Korea to Japan or from Mainland to Jeju Island. For Ferry between South Korea and Japan you can choose the regular Ferry or High Speed Catamaran.
Did you actual shoot your own drone footage and how did you pull this off? The shot at LOTTE Tower in the beginning musst be at 300-ish metres height, can you fly personal drones that high (technically and legally)? Nice and interesting shots though and a nice reminder of my upcoming third visit to Seoul.
