Morning light cuts across low hills as your minivan leaves Seoul and the rice plains open into fields that still remember the Baekje kingdom. On day one you step into Jeonju’s Hanok Village: courtyard doors, papered windows and the slow scent of toasted sesame from a bibimbap stall. The next two days move through Buyeo and Gongju where earthen walls, granite pagodas and temple streams mark a 1,400‑year history.
