About & Contact

Last updated: August 23, 2026

hikoreago is an independent travel information site for people visiting Korea — built to answer the practical questions that come up before and during a trip.

What We Cover

  • Travel — attractions, regions, festivals, seasonal events, and where to stay.
  • Food — what to eat and where, region by region.
  • Map — browsing Korea geographically rather than by list.
  • Schools — university information for prospective international students.
  • Learn Korean — practical language resources for travellers.

Where Our Information Comes From

Attraction, festival, accommodation, and regional data is sourced from the Korea Tourism Organization’s open API (TourAPI 4.0), the official public tourism dataset for Korea. We supplement it with our own research and editing, and with publicly available material from venues and local governments. Video is served from YouTube.

Tourism data changes constantly. If you spot something out of date or wrong, tell us — corrections are the fastest way to make the Site better.

How the Site Is Funded

hikoreago is free to use and carries no paywall. It is funded through affiliate partnerships with travel and accommodation providers: if you book through one of our links, we may earn a commission at no additional cost to you. Full details are in our Affiliate Disclosure.

Who Runs It

hikoreago is operated from the Republic of Korea by a small independent team. We are not affiliated with, endorsed by, or acting on behalf of the Korea Tourism Organization or any government body.
