Fares bottom out in March around $548 and peak in January near $726, 32% dearer, across the 7 months we track. The cheapest itinerary we are tracking flies Jetstar nonstop and takes about 10.5 hours outbound, on a 7-night trip. At $548 for 8,329 km each way, that works out to about $33 per 1,000 km flown. That is below the $44 per 1,000 km typical of long-haul fares here. Across the 9 departure cities we track at a similar distance from Sydney, this fare ranks 6th — 32% above the $414 from Singapore. That puts it in the cheaper half of the 44 routes of similar length we watch out of Seoul, where the middle fare is $666. The best time to be in Sydney: Oct–Nov · Mar–Apr.

Route facts
Good to know
Only slightly. The seasonal median is around $615 round-trip and this fare is 11% under it. We do not call a drop notable until 20%, so this is an ordinary price for the route rather than a reason to hurry.
Across 7 months of cached-fare history, Mar comes out cheapest on this route. The best months to actually be in Sydney are Oct–Nov · Mar–Apr — when those overlap, that's your window.
We do not publish a number for this, because we cannot measure it yet. Answering it honestly means watching the same departure date on this route over many weeks as it approaches, and that archive is still filling up — so any "book N days ahead" figure here would be borrowed from somewhere else rather than measured. What we can measure is which month is cheap: across 7 months of cached fares, Mar comes out lowest on this route. Our guide Why flight prices change covers what does move a fare.
Yes — the current board includes nonstop fares (Jetstar). The outbound leg runs around 10.5 hours.
No — these are cached fares found on real searches (this one on 17 October). Airlines reprice constantly, so the booking search re-checks the live price before you pay. Fresher finds are far more likely to still be available.
