Workation in Gangneung: the essentials
Koreans come to Gangneung, the main city on the east coast of Gangwon Province, for sunrise at Jeongdongjin, the sands of Gyeongpo Beach and the coffee shops along Anmok Beach, which earned it a name as the country's coffee town. About 210,000 people live here, and the city hosted the ice events of the 2018 Winter Olympics. The KTX from Seoul takes about two hours, while Yangyang International Airport, about 40 km north, mainly serves Jeju. Visitors and monthly rentals are largely domestic, and you will mostly work from cafés or your apartment. Summer weekends are crowded.
