Alex Reed

Travel Writer & Digital Nomad · Former Data Analyst

What's up, I'm Alex Reed — K-culture obsessed, trend-hunting, Seoul-based travel writer.

I moved to Korea for a "6-month gig" and three years later, I'm still here. Why? Because Seoul is the most relentlessly trendy, endlessly surprising, always-evolving city I've ever lived in.

I track what's viral NOW (because in Seoul, last month is ancient history), find K-pop pilgrimage spots before they blow up, and share Instagram-worthy locations with exact GPS coordinates. Fast, energetic, no time to waste.

Why TravelPlan Korea?

If it's not viral yet, it will be — and you'll know about it here first:

What's trending RIGHT NOW. Seoul moves fast. I track the latest cafes, K-pop spots, and viral locations in real-time.
K-culture insider access. K-drama filming locations, idol favorite restaurants, fan meeting spots — I've been there.
Instagram gold. Photo-worthy spots with exact GPS coordinates and best shooting times.
Shopping intel. Where to get deals that'll make your friends jealous. Currently obsessed with finding the perfect dakgalbi in Hongdae.
