Korean Outbound Travelers 2025: Essential Insights for Tourism Boards

By Dayoung Kim | Chief editor of hitchhickrTrends뉴스4월 2, 20250Comment

Understanding the Korean Tourist Market Through Recent Research

The South Korean outbound travel market continues to show remarkable resilience and growth, with approximately 28.69 million Korean travelers venturing abroad in 2024—averaging 65,753 daily international departures. For tourism boards and destination marketers worldwide, understanding the evolving preferences of Korean outbound travelers has never been more critical for capturing this high-value Asian travel market.

Recent comprehensive research examining Korean travel trends reveals two particularly actionable insights that should shape your destination’s marketing strategy for 2025 and beyond.

Gender-Driven Preferences Among Korean Tourists

A study of 1,006 experienced Korean outbound travelers has uncovered distinct motivational patterns between genders that significantly impact destination choice and experience evaluation:

  • Female Korean outbound travelers (81% agreement) show markedly higher engagement with:
    • Pre-trip anticipation and emotional excitement
    • Post-trip memory collection and storytelling opportunities
    • Visual and shareable experiences that create lasting impressions
  • Male Korean tourists prioritize different aspects of international travel:
    • Value-for-money considerations and economic benefits
    • Quality of interpersonal experiences at destinations
    • Activity-focused experiences and practical benefits

For tourism boards targeting the Korean travel market, these gender differences necessitate tailored marketing approaches—emotional, memory-focused campaigns for female travelers versus value-proposition and activity-centered messaging for male travelers.

Social Media Activity: A Key Predictor of Korean Travel Behavior

Perhaps the most valuable finding for international tourism boards is the direct correlation between social media engagement and overseas travel preferences among South Korean travelers. The research definitively shows that active social media users—particularly those who regularly create content on platforms like YouTube, Instagram, and Facebook—demonstrate significantly higher preference for international travel experiences.

These “SNS uploaders” within the Korean tourist market:

  • Show 12-15% higher appreciation for the economic value of overseas destinations
  • Report 10-12% greater satisfaction with interpersonal experiences abroad
  • Engage more deeply with travel experiences, likely driven by content creation opportunities
  • Represent highly influential voices within Korean travel communities

This correlation between social media activity and travel preferences creates a clear strategic opportunity: by targeting content creators and facilitating shareable experiences, tourism boards can effectively reach the most enthusiastic segment of Korean outbound travelers.
