South Korea Tourist Visa for Pakistani passport

This blog is based on how to get a Korea visa from Pakistan or a South Korean tourist visa for a Pakistani passport from Pakistan. South Korea is officially called the Republic of Korea.

It is a country in East Asia on the southern part of the Korean Peninsula and partitioning a land border with highly militarized boundaries with North Korea. South Korea is recognized for its green, hilly countryside with cherry trees, old Buddhist temples, seaside fishing villages, Islands, and high-tech cities such as Seoul.

The capital city name is Seoul and its currency name is Korean Won (KRW).

I visited South Korea in February 2020 on a tourist visa. To watch my all videos of South Korea as a travel series, click here. We were four people in a group and visited Seoul. The capital of South Korea is Seoul, and Jeju Island, is an island in South Korea.

Some people asked me how to get a South Korean tourist visa for a Pakistani passport from Pakistan or a Korea visa from Pakistan. So, I wrote this blog with all the details. All the information is correct according to the official website of the South Korean embassy in Pakistan.
