I recommend the DMZ tour as one of the touristy things to do in SK. Depending on your guide, you’ll hear about all the ridiculous times NK has broken the armistice agreement. Also blasting KPop lol

Second this. I've been nearly a hundred countries, and the DMZ was one of the most interesting sites I've seen anywhere. It's pretty different than most sites a tourist can see, because it's an active militarized zone where history is still unfolding.

Definitely recommend researching the best tour companies online, because it makes a big difference.

Also, the Korean War* Museum is AMAZING.

*It's really more a full military history / history of Korea museum, not focused on JUST the 1950's war.
