Can I easily travel in Italy by bus/train without any prior reservation?

Usual regional (not highspeed) trains don’t require (or offer) reservations;
so yes, you can just go there, buy a ticket, and enter the train.

However, the South Korean “standing seat” system (if I understood it correctly) is not known here. With reservation, you’ll have a guaranteed seat; and without reservation, you may have to stand (anywhere) or you’re lucky and find an empty, unreserved seat. There are no lower prices for people refraining from using seats at all.

For many high-speed trains (ES Frecciarossa/Frecciargento/Frecciabianca, InterCity), seat reservations are mandatory. For Pisa-Firenze, this won’t be a problem, there are many regional trains (I’m not even sure if there are non-regional trains at all). If you need/want to take a high-speed train somewhere, usually it’s still no problem to buy the ticket right before entering; most trains are not sold out. However, buying in advance is probably cheaper.
