3–4 days for highlights is enough to see the must-dos without rushing. Add a day or two if you want 5–6 days including a dmz or nami island day trip and time to explore at a slower pace.
Many of Seoul's major sights sit close enough to reach on foot, and the subway covers the rest for longer hops — Travinora's itineraries route between stops using real transit times either way, not a walking-only assumption.
Apr–May, Sep–Nov tends to have the best weather-to-crowd balance — outside those windows you'll still find real bookable activities (1408 real options are searchable here right now), just with different weather and crowd levels.
If you're moving between neighborhoods more than once or twice a day, a short-stay transit pass on the subway usually pays for itself faster than single tickets.
It can be, but real activity pricing here averages around $245 per person per day — plenty of Seoul experiences fit a range of budgets.
