The subway system is very good in Seoul, we went places all by subway, it was easy to buy tickets because one price for most of the destinations within the city.

Recommend a visit to the world cup stadium and surrouding parks. Also the Seoul tower is worth a trip with 360 degree views over the whole city. Take the cable car to the summit for spectacular views of the city.
Dongadeum market has to be seen to be believed - amazing number of stall/shops and street vendors selling everything one could want.

I was mainly on business, but I found Seoul an interesting city. The subway is a dream to use, much better than being stuck in the endless traffic snarls on the surface.

Taxis are not expensive to take around the city core, and the subway is fast and efficient.

Seoul is a businessman's destination and hasn't changed much over the past decade. It is still difficult to venture out of your hotel, unless you go to another one....

Soeul and Korea are very interesting places to visit. It seems that one has to visit it a few times to get a stronger understanding and appreication of the people and the culture.
I believe that the first few visits to korea is a challenge for western people, and it is important to continue to visit and build the faith and trust with people there and rewards of that will be strong for everyone.

The subway system is busy, but quite safe, clean, easy to use, cheap and extensive (almost 300 stations around metro Seoul!).
Taxis are also cheap, by world standards, but sometimes even a short distance can take much more time than you have planned, due to heavy traffic and constant standstills.

Korea is a safe place to visit in spite of current world events. However, it is not a cheap destination, and one should have a fairly decent budget if Korea is your choice. Would not recommend subway transportation as this can be confusing and sometimes dangerous. Make sure that the hotel you book has free shuttle services to several places you want to visit because that will take a little of the sting out of all those taxi fares.
