Welcome to How to Korea, your ultimate guide for living in South Korea as a foreigner. In this episode, we talk about navigating public transportation in South Korea! It can be quite the challenge when you're trying to figure out how to get to somewhere new, in a new country, looking at a foreign language! We talk about some of the troubles we've had which you may be able to relate to, whether it be in the past or in the future. If it's your first time in South Korea, you'll inevitably start from Incheon Airport so we've got you covered on how to reach your primary destination. As always, we veer off topic to discuss visiting other countries and the challenges we faced in countries besides South Korea, like Japan, but we also discuss the differences we felt during our transition from the two countries. We also talk about traveling in South Korea via the "Enjoy Korea Travel Company". Did you know that a two-room apartment in Korea is actually one bedroom, one living room? That's one of the other distinctions that we clarify in this video as well! So when you first come to Korea, don't be surprised if your "three-room" house is just a living room and two rooms! If you've lived in Korea, there has definitely been a time your phone had scared the shit out of you with one of those "End of the world" alerts. We talk about the importance of not dying from a heart attack from those alerts and how useful they can be! Along these lines, if you ever want to know what the hell these Korean messages mean, because you'll receive a lot of them, did you know that you can screenshot a message and put it directly into Google translate? It's one of Ian's favorite go to apps. We talk about a staple of Korean culture, Daiso, which quite literally translates to "We've got it all." and they definitely live up to their name. Finally, we discuss how the trash system works in Korea (not that the system in Korea is trash, but quite literally, the trash system) discussing recycling, food waste, and other useful tips when it comes to trash.
