I mentioned that you need to keep yourself occupied with some indoor hobbies in Saudi, so now I want to mention some of the things that kept me busy in Korea.
Although I don't like shopping, shopping in Korea could be fun. There was a local market on the 2nd, 12th, 22nd and 5th, 15th and 25th of every month that sold fresh foods. This was always an interesting experience if you don't mind the crowds. The exotic foods - live eels, crabs, fish, strange plants - was always fun and interesting, especially if you go shopping for groceries with a friend and then spend the evening cooking together with a bottle (or 2) of wine.
Hiking, going to any of the many coffee shops, eating out, going for a few drinks, watching movies, bowling, taking a weekend trip to the beach or into Seoul, were all viable options since most of the foreigners were young, single and like-minded.
