Affiliate disclosure
How Budget Travel 2 Korea makes money, which links earn a commission, and what that does and does not influence.
Budget Travel 2 Korea carries no affiliate links, no sponsored posts and no advertising. Nothing on this site earns money when you click it, and nobody pays to appear here.
Why this page exists anyway
Because the honest answer to “how does this site make money” is worth stating even when the answer is “it does not”. It also means you can read a recommendation here without wondering which link paid for it.
If that changes
Korean rail passes and accommodation sell through the operators and the large platforms. If commercial links are ever added, this page will say so before they appear, every such link will go through a /go/ redirect tagged as sponsored, and the pages carrying them will show a notice next to the links rather than only in the footer.
How we choose what to recommend
Options are ranked on cost against time lost. The cheapest option is not recommended where it costs a day, and the page says what the difference buys.
