Merkur 1 #1 November 3, 2005 Hi all! Does anyone know about skydiving in South Korea? Are there any dropzones? Thanks, M.vSCR No.94 Don't dream your life - live your dream! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
nbblood 0 #2 November 3, 2005 Good news: yes, there is a DZ. Bad News: They're only open every other Sunday, if the weather permits. They get maybe 10-12 days a year. Also, to jump there you need to join Korean Parachute Association which is 100,000 won or about $85. Then it's 100,000 won per jump, again $85. So the first jump will cost you $170. This information is from when I was last over there, about 2 years ago. Since then I don't know how gas prices have affected their operations. To me it wasn't worth the effort or money. I came home and jumped on leave. Anyway, good luck. Blues, NathanBlues, Nathan If you wait 'til the last minute, it'll only take a minute. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

nbblood 0 #4 November 4, 2005 If I remember right it's in Munsari (Sp?) Here's a couple links to get you started. You'll probably have to find somebody to translate, unless you read Hangul. http://www.skydivingschool.or.kr/main.php http://www.kpa.or.kr/ http://www.koreaparachuteschool.com/ It took me a long time to figure out what the real deal was when I was over there. When I did I gave up. It took finding a number on one of these webpages and getting a Korean to call and translate for me. Good luck.
