As for myself, I would certainly like to visit Seoul. That's one thing I need to do when I'm in my thirties. But for Asia, my wishlist of places to visit is rather big.
Hong Kong, Shanghai, Beijing, Xi'an, Hangzhou, Taiwan, much of South Korea, maybe even North Korea (the kafkaesque experience of being stalked by a guide constantly might seem morally questionable, but I believe people should visit it so North Koreans still see a glimpse of the outside world, no matter how repressed), Kanto, Kansai, Hokkaido, much of Thailand, much of Vietnam, etc...

Personally I'd rather go to the main cities of Japan, China, and Vietnam, but I'm also biased because of my interest in Chinese + Japanese history. And Vietnam's beauty is pretty tough to beat.
I'm also not into popculture etc. which korea and especially seoul is big on.

I've been to the South Korea airport only (Incheon), and I must say that alone was a great experience lol, so clean, and the view out the window was marvelous.
I've met tons of Koreans too, more than any other Asian group besides my own. I've noticed they're really into sports and singing. The men can be quite alpha, while the women are very hot with that strikingly northern appeal. I'd be very interested in visiting Seoul someday, but Tokyo/Japan is on my priority list at the moment.

Xi'an has amazing history, and it is more authentic than places like Beijing and Hangzhou where a lot of the historic areas have been cleaned up. The Moslem quarter in Xi'an is a bastion of Hui culture, and has an ancient 1300 year old Mosque that is hidden along the alley ways. It is the Rome of Asia, considering it's ancient history and the fact that it was once the world's greatest city, and capital of a giant empire.

Ha where are all these luxury soju brands? I've lived in SEOUL 6 years and never saw them. Ah, hipster-yuppie orientalism.
So much nonsense. The Fast data speed connections everywhere is true though. I love Korea, but Japan is still culturally superior, unfortunately- by a lot. Much of China too.
