The three Vietnamese destinations are the coastal city of Nha Trang in Khanh Hoa province, the central city of Da Nang, and Phu Quoc Island in An Giang province.      

Notably, Phu Quoc recorded a 63% year-on-year increase in arrivals from the Republic of Korea, climbing six places to enter the top 10 for the first time.

It is also Vietnam’s only destination that allowed all foreign visitors to enter visa-free for up to 30 days. The island’s rich eco-tourism assets, including pristine beaches and a resort-style natural environment, have helped attract growing interest from Korean travelers.

In 2025, Vietnam welcomed more than 4 million Korean visitors, ranking second among its international source markets, behind Chinese tourists.

According to the Korea Tourism Organisation and Incheon International Airport Corporation, from January to October last year, Koreans logged more than 24 million trips abroad, with around 350,000 international flights operated, both up 3.2% from a year earlier.

Digital travel platform Agoda also reported that interest in overseas travel among Koreans increased 15% year on year based on its own data.
