Is Seoul Safe for Women? Crime Rate in Seoul

Seoul is one of the safest city. I had few foreign friends in Korea and they all told me they feel safe in Seoul! Nobody is going to harass you even if you are a girl walking alone at night. But be a little cautious when clubbing.

There is no such thing as a complete safety for girls anywhere in the world. But in Seoul you can walk around at night without too much worry. People don’t really care about other property, so no worries for burglary.

In general Seoul is safer than Europe countries but I would recommend to be careful specially if girls goes out at night in famous area like hongdae and itaewon . Korean guys usually goes to these areas to have fun with foreign girl. I’ve been living in Korea for 4 years and unfortunately I did have bad experiences . The white horse is still something happening these days . Even if in general Korea is safe , still need to be vigilant at night

Amazing city, yes, but crime towards women(misogyny) and racism(to non-white people) needs to be noticed. People might seem cold, but they're just tired about their life. Don't sway around hot places(Hongdae, Sungsoo, etc.) alone at night. Police number in Korea is 112.

It is generally a safe city, especially considering it is a huge capital city. I as a woman can always walk around almost anywhere at night. There is nearly no thiefs or robbers. Public transportation is also amazing.

Solo travel

Loved the trip honestly. I'm planning on shifting to Seoul soon and planned this trip to get familiar with the place before shifting there. Had a great experience people were nice. Everything was good overall tbh!
