Entering Address and Accommodation Details: how it works in South Korea — first-hand

From real experience

When filling out the K-ETA application for South Korea, travelers are required to provide details of their accommodation.
It is permissible to list a booked hotel even if plans for subsequent travel within South Korea (e.g., a short trip to Busan) are in place. Only one primary accommodation address needs to be declared on the K-ETA form. Travelers are not expected to detail all subsequent overnight stays or accommodations in different cities within the K-ETA application. The primary declared address serves as the main point of contact for the initial part of the stay.
