Useful Apps
Since day one, these apps have helped me survive. I'll go ahead and tell you a bit about them, also feel free to share some of the ones that helped you during your stay.
The most important one in my opinion is Subway (지하철). With this app you can plan all of your trips using Seoul's very efficient and reliable subway lines. It is very easy to get the hang of and to plan and save trips to use later. I suggest you play around with it a bit before you get to Korea.
Kakao Taxi (카카오택시) is an app that connects to your Kakao account and with it you can call cabs anywhere and to anywhere. I may add that in Seoul is very easy to find Taxis, pretty much stand outside and signal one. I was fortunate to find kind local people that helped me call taxis before I knew of this app, a random lady at the airport was my guardian angel as a had no idea how to get from there to where I was staying at. I wish i knew about this app sooner, but now at least I'm passing that knowledge to you.
Naver map (N 지도) is another useful way to get around. It shows you the map of all Seoul and gives you directions to places using Buses, Subway lines or just walking. The only problem is that the whole app is in Korean, other than that is a live saver. Try playing with it and translating words before hand!
Last but not least is Yogiyo (배달요기요). This app helps you order all kinds of food that get deliver to your door step at any time (Seoul has tons of 24/7 food places). In all honesty this app saved my life on the days I felt to overwhelmed to be outside. Studying abroad is an incredible experience and you will want to take advantage of every minute here, but it is also okay to take a breath if you need it. To me this meant getting used to this new environment where I stand out everywhere I go. On those days, Yogiyo was a blessing.
I am not by any means fluent in Korean, however I am able to get by. From time to time I had to google and translate things. So I may add that finding a good Korean translator should also be a good idea.
Always, thank you for the support on this project. I'll keep working hard to keep coming up with useful posts.
