[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Possibly unpopular opinion, but IMO, 2.5 weeks isn’t enough for either Korea or Japan plus another country *unless* you’re doing 2 weeks in one of those plus 3 days in Siem Reap / Hong Kong / Singapore / another smaller place.

I’m planning a 2-week trip to Korea next year and that’s barely enough time to fit in the minimum number of things we’d want to see there. Similarly, we’ve done two 2-week trips to Japan and feel like we need at least 2-3 more 2-week trips. [/quote]

I'm inclined to agree with you. The flights alone from US to Korea/Japan will knock you out for a few days at the beginning. There's a lot to see in those countries. I'd rather spend the time getting to know these places better than rushing from airport to airport. Just change the focus of the trip within the country so after the cities, spend some time in the countryside for hiking or even beaches somewhere to see a different angle of Japanese or Korean life. Going from Japan or Korea to SE Asia still represents a lost day of travel on both ends, cutting into the time you have available. It's not going from Belgium to France.
