It seems that researching for Korea trip is much tougher than I though. Breezing through the Taiwan researchs, I had underestimate this time round. Simply cannot find the directions by entering in English or Chinese!! While Google map was a god sent for Taiwan research, the same cannot be said for Korea.
Nearly smashed my PC while trying to find my way to 1 particular place. And so, I read that Naver Map was gives more accurate directions than Google. The only drawback is, it is all in Korean. Faints.
And so armed with Google translate, I proceed to translate every word on the app so that I can familiarise myself with the app. It took me a good half an hour to find the directions from A to B.
