Buzz
Over the past 20 years, a pair of Japanese siblings visited Korea more than 40 times.


On May 1, a special event was held celebrating 'Welcome Week' awarding the 'Korea Mania' siblings free roundtrip tickets to Seoul.


Japanese siblings Nagabuchi Hisashi (43) and Nagabuchi Noriko (45) fell in love with Seoul after visiting a friend in Korea twenty years ago.


Since then, the passionate brother and sister siblings have been visiting Seoul whenever they had the chance, which has been more than 40 times.


They commented, "We visit every time we are craving for Korean food." Nagabuchi Noriko stated, "Korean food is delicious and we are glad that we don't have to stand outside in long lines to enter a restaurant."


Nagabuchi Hisashi said, "Compared to 20 years ago, the streets have become very clean and trendy.  It's great to see everything located in one area for convenient access.  Also, we come here often knowing that Korea is one of the safest places to be in."
