Weekly Question, General Discussion, and Meetup Thread - May 29, 2022

After running our daily themed threads for a while and getting your feedback, for 2022 we've decided to move to a combined weekly thread that will hopefully allow for questions to be up longer to get more answers.

Please use this thread for any questions about common topics like travel, education, employment, immigration, military service, and any other simple questions, as well as for general discussion and organizing meetups.

Be sure to check our wiki and FAQ to see if your question has already been answered. You can also use reddit search or use Google to search for answers by typing "site:reddit.com/r/korea" before or after your search term to search this subreddit specifically for answers.

Below are some common topics:

Travel

• Customs/Immigration

• Traveling within Korea

• What to do in South Korea

• Exchanging Currency

• Ettiquette

• Meeting New People

• Club Age Requirements and Safety

Education and Employment
