I have the first week of next month off and I am thinking about climbing in Korea:

Any advice?
I would like some long granite cracks that are easy to access.

Is it a vacatiuon there too?

Climbing in Korea is worthwhile, definitely! If it's granite cracks you want I'd probably say your best bet is up in Seoul at Insu-bong, or Do-bong San, both of which are easily accessible from Seouls awesome subway system. Bit of a hike once you get to the Buk-Han National Park enterance, but that's a small price to pay. Otherwise Sorak san National Park over on the north east coast is well stocked with the granite crack situations. Check out the links to see how to get to the routes. Gear stores at the bottom near the enterances can probably give you some guide maps if you need them.
