Workation in Yeosu: the essentials
Yeosu is a port city on Korea's south coast with over 300 islands in its waters and a nighttime harbour view famous enough to have its own hit song. The 2012 Expo left it with a modern waterfront, a marine cable car to Dolsan island and good transport links; the old town and the Yi Sun-sin square remain the everyday centre. Seafood is the cuisine here, from gat kimchi to raw fish markets. Rents are low, internet is gigabit-class, and the climate is milder than Seoul. Trade-offs: coworking is nearly nonexistent, the expat scene is small, English is limited, and summer brings humidity and typhoon risk. Yeosu Airport has flights to Seoul-Gimpo and Jeju; the KTX takes about 3 hours from Seoul. Suits remote workers who want a quiet coastal Korean base with island day trips.

Yeosu has no conventional coworking, but offers study cafés billed by the hour and fast internet everywhere. Cafés tolerate long laptop sessions and the library is a quiet option. Proper coworking desks are only found in Gwangju or Busan.
