Deskripsi
Black tourism has been on the rise for the last few years. While it is wonderful to see pictures of other Black people having a good time in other countries and submerging themselves into other cultures, there is still a small problem. There is hardly any travel content available from a Black perspective. This travel guide was created to help address that issue.
This black travel guide aims to show potential travelers why Incheon, South Korea should take priority over Seoul or Busan. It was designed and created by an all-Black team for people of color. Inside of this guide you will find travel information written from the viewpoint of an African American male living in Korea, information about places to explore with special attention to places for nerds that enjoy Marvel, Gundam, One Piece, and more. This guide goes into depth about what it is like to be a Black person in Korea as a resident and as a tourist.

I want to say thank you for everyone who has supported this guide. I want to give a major thank you to my editor Bianca and the artist theantarts(IG: @the_antartz_) for their patience and understanding.
But most of all huge thanks to Reggie, Leon, Jamaal, Rachel, and Briesten and many others for helping me out when I was down during this pandemic while working on this project. Words can not describe the help you all provided.

A NOTE FROM THE AUTHOR
1
Hello, I am the Blerd (Black Nerd) Explorer. I have worked and lived in South Korea as an ESL Teacher since May 2016. Over the years I have lived in many areas of Korea and have enjoyed exploring various cities and attending special events during my down time. For years when I would hear about someone traveling to another country, I would immediately think to

myself, that’s some white people stuff.
I had never heard of African Americans traveling to another country except for military personnel and their families. When I was in my last semester of college and looking into teaching in South Korea, I noticed that there was a shortage of people traveling that looked like me. More recently, there are more Black people traveling to historic monuments, enjoying new cuisines, and having a good time on beaches all over the world. It is amazing to see travel blogs and social media pictures popping up with people that have the same hair texture as I do; we can now gain a perspective from people that may endure similar social experiences. I was inspired to create this guide because although there are a lot of blogs and videos about Incheon, there are not as many tailored to the Black experience. I wrote this guide without the mindset of traveling during a global pandemic. At the time of writing this guide, Covid-19 has affected all corners of the world and the tourism industry has been hit the hardest. It is my hope that when it is safe to leave our homes and travel locally or abroad this guide will be available to assist you with planning a trip to South Korea. The goal of my blog and now this guide is to provide firsthand travel experiences from the point of view of a Black man as well as to encourage the African American community to explore the world one location at a time.
