What is the experience of applying for a visa at the Thai embassy in Seoul or Tokyo?

Many users have shared their experiences applying for Thai visas at the Seoul and Tokyo embassies. Applicants have noted that both embassies are quite strict, typically only accepting applications from residents of those countries. For instance, the DTV visa is accessible primarily to Japanese citizens or foreign residents with permanent residency in Japan. In Seoul, applicants confirm that only residents, not tourists, can apply, and requirements often include comprehensive documentation, such as bank statements. Some users have discussed the nuances of submitting local Korean documents, and the availability of guidance in English from the embassy.
