One of the major challenges for travelers who wish to tour Korea is communication. Damn! Koreans CANT speak English and if they do, they speak BAD English. It took us a while to finally locate the site as we are busy wandering outside the streets of Anguk station. Nobody could seem to lead us to the right direction. We’ve been walking back and forth trying to figure out which way to go. We have asked several bystanders but they are no help at all. Ridiculously speaking, the entrance to Hanok Village is just a few steps from where we roam for a while. Deymn.
If there’s one thing I must compliment about the locals of Korea is that, they are polite in treating foreigners and kind enough to respond through gestures that they could not understand English. Like for example in asking directions and in bargaining prices of souvenir items (well, I just based it on 4 other countries that I have gone to: Singapore, Macau, Hongkong and Malaysia). Koreans are well mannered and courteous among ‘em. Just my personal view though.
