Hi Kristin,
My wife is from Korea I visit the country with her every year. I have yet to take my diving equipment to one of my trips to Korea, but I plan to someday as I would be interesting to see if I can dive with one of the Haenyo divers.
Jeju Island, in the southernmost tip of Korea, is the best place to dive over there.
You should get in touch with Sherrin, a fellow DB board member who lives in Jeju Island and who can direct you to some good freediving spots.
Hope this helps.
Cheers,
Claudio

Hey, kristin_
we have had a couple of students from Korea. They have contacts to a group of freedivers in Seoul and they're keen to get some more freediving going on over there.
With some luck, I'll also come over to visit!
send me an email to askus@wefreedive.org and I can get you in touch with them.
Hope to see you there soon!

There is a quite active freediving club in Seoul, Korea.
They organise regular weekly training session, also seasonal freediving tour mostly in Jeju Island.

Fantastic! Thanks for the info. I just got back from training with sanso down in Thailand and can't wait to start up here in Seoul (though I gotta get my gear first, so probably starting in a month).
Also, for the OP, if you're gonna be new and want someone to show you around let me know. Send me a PM and I'll give you my phone number.
Either way, see ya'll soon!

My gear has finally all gotten here!!! I'll be emailing the Korean group soon, and hope to join them from time to time, but their schedule isn't happy for me to do every week.
So if anyone here would like to set up a time and work on our own I'm very down. Maybe we can even find a regular time to meet (which would be ideal).
