Going to Korea? This Book Will Save Your Day.
Not everyone in Korea speaks English, so knowing even a little Korean makes all the difference. Whether you're passing through as a tourist or settling in as an expat, the right phrase at the right moment can turn a stressful moment into a smooth one. Survival Korean is built for exactly those moments.
What's Inside:
- Essential Phrases for 20 Real Situations - The exact Korean you need for everyday travel moments, each with clear explanations of when and how to use it.
- Local Culture Tips - Handy insider notes help you navigate each situation like you belong, avoiding awkward mistakes along the way.
- Show-and-Point Friendly - Not ready to speak? Just open the book and point - communication made effortless.
- Quick-Start Korean Guides - Bonus references for reading Hangeul, Korean numbers, asking questions, and more - everything the curious traveler needs.
- Use It Your Way - Keep it in your bag as a quick reference, or study it situation by situation. However you use it, it's got your back.
By the end of this book, you'll be able to:
- Order food and drinks confidently at restaurants, cafes, and by delivery
- Get around with ease on the bus, subway, and in taxis - and ask for directions
- Shop for clothes, groceries, and online without hesitation
- Take care of daily errands at the salon, bank, and mobile shop
- Communicate what you need at the hospital, pharmacy, school, and workplace
