Namsan Tower is pretty fun too. Hike isn’t too bad, or you can take a cable car.

Thumbs up on all the above, but two of the five are small trips outside Seoul, wasn't sure he was willing to do that.

Both trips are easy to make though. The DMZ tour originates in Seoul and the Korean Folk Villiage is accessible by train
