I don't know what it would be like now, but when I was at Osan 1963/64, things were not too tight security wise while a friend of mine that got Kunsan said security was extremely tight there. For example, we could take pictures of the base for most parts with one exception while my buddy said no photography on base at Kunsan was allowed. Off base was OK though.
One place you should check out if you get a chance is An Yang. It's the Hollywood of Korea and the scenery is beautiful. In Seoul, thee is a spot called the Korea House where tradition dances and music are performed. Well worth seeing.
Just out of Suwon on the way to Koon-ni range is some of the finest pheasant and duck and goose hunting imaginable. I even still have my Korean hunting license stuck in one of my photo albums.
If I ever win the lottery, I may one day go back to Korea just to visit some of the places I'd gone to. Take lots of picture. I came home with over 3,000 Kodachrome slides, some of which I sold to National Geographic.
Oh BTW, don't let the smell get to you. After about a week you won't even notice it.
