Join us today on another episode of How to Korea, the best podcast in South Korea, where we tell you what it takes to live in South Korea. We go over the feedback we received and the corrections we made to some of the information we mentioned in our previous podcasts. All feedback and comments are appreciated as they help us grow and help you provide the most accurate how to guide for surviving and living in South Korea! We talk about Karrot Market in South Korea and how it can be your first step in making any purchase, big or small. It's a very useful online used market store that you can utilize to help you get setup when you first move to South Korea, or if you're looking to upgrade your lifestyle. In this episode, Ian was chock full of stories about his experiences in South Korea and we have a few stories and anecdotes that perhaps you can relate with, or that you can experience first hand if you decide to move and live in South Korea! We skip around a bit in between to talk about what to do if you find an item on the floor, and what to do if you lose an item and want to find it. South Korea is a very safe country so for the most part, if you lose something, there's a very likely chance that you'll be able to find it at the place you lost it, or a good Samaritan may have found it and handed it in to the local police station, in which case they will call you and let you know to come pick it up! We also go over some tips and tricks for Karrot Market (당근) and some tips on how to communicate on Karrot market given that the app is in Korean, as well as some of the top items you should consider buying on the marketplace, as they can be fairly good deals for amazing quality. We then discuss, ordering delivery food in South Korea! We talked about two of the most used apps, Baemin (배달의민족) and Yogiyo (요기요) which Ian had the unfortunate experience of comparing with a very well-known anime and card game, Yugiyo (lol). If you're going to take away anything from this episode, it's to check the review section because if you tell them you will leave a photo review during your order, most stores usually give you something for free, so make sure to check that out! We dive a bit deeper into food and the differences you may experience with food from South Korea compared to your home countries. The two things that definitely stand out are pizza and chicken. South Korean food has its own unique.. palette so you may love it, or it may take you time to become accustomed to it. One thing we can tell you for sure though, is that the food in South Korea is definitely different than what you may be accustomed to at home, even for major franchises including McDonalds, Pizza Hut, Dominos, and others. We briefly talk about adjusting yourself to using Korean Won, the standard currency in South Korea, and how it can seem like everything is very cheap, but it's a direct correlation to the amount of income so once you start earning money, it may not seem as cheap as you once thought, or expensive for that matter. Finally, we discuss North Korea and how we feel about North Korea as current residents of South Korea. We don't really feel the way the news portrays the country is an accurate depiction of what we experience in our day-to-day lives, but feel free to listen to hear our opinions regarding this matter!
