Am planning to visit both cities in August.
Is that a good time of year to go or not? Will the cities be empty because of the Summer vacation??
Thanks
Its going to be very, very hot and humid. Expect to duck from building to building hiding in the shelter of AC during the day, otherwise if you walk outside for more than 20 minutes your shirt is drenched with sweat. It cools down a bit during the night, so its better.
In seoul, hongdae and itaewon will always be kicking.
In taipei, I've only been there when I was in high school, but night markets are always packed, and tons of cute girls there.
