For people flying long haul one week is the minimum we'd recommend but 10 days to 2 weeks is ideal in our opinion.
South Korea is not a country that depends on it's weather. The snow suits it's crisp architectural edges and it's Summer provides added beauty to Busan and Jeju island. If you need the sun come between March-May for the pink blossoms, if you prefer it mild then come between September to November.
The train system in South Korea is fantastic and incredibly affordable. All of the signs have an English translation and a weekly or monthly card similar to an Oyster card, can be topped up and used throughout your stay.
