The Seoul Metropolitan Government will launch a three-day tourist pass in the second half of next year. There will also be a special edition, which features images of popular K-pop stars such as TVXQ and EXO.

The Discover Seoul Pass, which is a special discount pass for non-Koreans visiting Seoul, allows users to enter 21 tourist destinations free of charge and offers discounts for 13 performances across the city. Only in 17 months since its launch in July last year, more than 20,000 passes have been sold. A one-day pass is sold at 39,900 won and two-day pass at 55,000 won. It can also be used as a transportation card if users charge money on their card.

The Discover Seoul Pass can be purchased at Incheon International Airport, tourist information centers at major tourist destinations in Seoul, CU convenient stores and KEB Hana Banks.
