Where can I go skydiving in South Korea?
I am heading to Korea in near future for quite a long trip. As, I am very enthusiastic about skydiving, I was wondering how easy (or hard) to get a tandem jump (aka assisted jump).
After Google, I found something on skydivingschool.co.kr which is completely in Korean language. Some discussion around it describes that instructions are in Korean only.
Is there any other foreigner-friendly diving agency (or school) out there ?
Best Answer
I couldn't find any schools aside from the one you have listed. Generally speaking I would always start from the sports associations like Korean Parachute Association but their site is all in Korean and rather poorly done too.
There is also a Sky Divers' forum called Drop Zone which has a section dedicated to South Korea. It might provide some information but I didn't feel like registering to get at the content (sorry).
There also is a list of Dropzones across the world and prices to access them as well as clubs servicing them but nothing in South Korea.
