    The Google Maps thing is because the South Korean government doesn't allow its map data server to be overseas. This is for national security reasons. In the event of political turmoil (I'm looking at you, North Korea), they want to take control of the domestic map data on their own. Google doesn't have a map server in South Korea; hence, the Naver Map, the domestic map company, comes into play.

    Welcome to S
    Korea. Hope you had a memorable experience. Many people talking about second Korean War, but Korean Peninsula is more safe than you think, itโ€™s being protected both by Korean and US military.

    There are hundreds of videos about traveling in South Korea. You should have watched them BEFORE you went there cause you're doing everything the hard way.

    Love watching this after visiting South Korea back in March. I also arrived stupidly late. My flight got delayed so I arrived about 1am (instead of 10pm). Had to take a taxi to my accommodation and it was about $130NZD. I got my tmoney at the airport and it was a 2in1 tmoney and simcard.

    Naver maps was a lifesaver and its so cool how it even has the recommend car to hop into on the train for the quickest exit or transfer.

    Myeongdong had so many cool foods in that street market but it was sooo pricey. You definitely made me regret not trying that marshmallow ice cream stick though. The hotteok's were my favourite. I ate way too many from different places during my trip. I also awkwardly carried a stick around for ages at one point. A small tip is that all the food stall have rubbish boxes so you take your rubbish back to where you got your food.

    Welcome to Korea. I am korean and 55 years old. The sugar cracking(?) of squid game drama is so popular when I was young, especially 1980 or so. Since the squig game has been popular in these days, that game revived.
