Free Wifi in Seoul

Free wifi here usually means you have free access to the hotspot, some of the more popular ones are Olleh, U+zone, and T-wifi. To login in to these hotspots you either need to have purchased a code, as is the case with Olleh, or you need to have a valid korean cell phone number and alien registration number to access the free wifi. A tourist has limited options. 

Places with truly free wifi:

Seoul City Center- if you find yourself walking through Seoul’s more central areas then chances are you can connect to their city wifi. But the signal is often weak and not as stable as others. Some subway stations also have this service. 

***iptime and anygate usually don't require pw.

Cafes or Restaurants:

Dunkin Donuts-

Nokbeon

Eungam

Jong-ro 3-ga

Bulgwang

Angel in Us- most have their own wifi passwords on the receipts

***Best bet for us has always been Angel - in - Us cafe. They always have their own free wifi and are open 24 hrs, best location to stay in all night with a laptop or for studying.
