Don't even consider KAL as F/O on a B737 as there is no career structure there for the likes of you so in a few years time you will have to move on having burnt your bridges back home, still a F/O and then staying as an expat which as an F/O is difficult. After a few years you will probably end up applying for the likes of EK or EY and your career has effectively gone backwards as you now start at the bottom of another airline. Only consider those that have some kind of upgrade policy.

I have night stopped in Seoul many times. cold and snowy in winter, hot and sticky in Summer. Good bar/music downstairs at The Hyatt JJ's Itaewon. Seoul Pub. Hilton. I would guess the B737 is not the best fleet to be on either.

Stay with the airline in Europe everbody loves to hate is my advice.

I very much doubt if you will get any social intercourse on night stops. Maybe as a young expat F/O you will be a novelty to some!
