I spent a month in South Korea in July and Aug 2014. I found English to be widely spoken. Costs were about the same as the US. You can eat inexpensively if you learn a bit about Korean diet. Gas is about $10 a gallon. Mid range or less expensive hotels are set up as "Love Hotels" But everyone uses them. They put the overnight people on one floor the hourly people on a different floor. Ask if they have WIFI about half will have it. That is also a way of telling what kind of hotel it is. Insurance was a bit expensive but you can get it no problem. South Korea is really hot and humid during the summer. Then around late October it gets Siberian cold. Dave
