I'm going away for a little over a month a few days from now, and I think I should have my place cleaned before going. I don;t have time to do it myself.

Anyone know a cleaning service that can do it? My Korean is good enough for taxi directions and ordering pizza, but calling for this is a little beyond my ability, so maybe a place that speaks some english...

I live in Gunpo.

Thanks.

try the local YWCA or if you can find one a women's center. I've found ladies through both agencies and they've worked out well so far.

You can also find lots of filipina ladies who want to do cleaning around central Seoul. They always post their ads on the board in the Hannam Supermarket.

where is hannam supermarket? like what subway line #/color is it? i cant speak or read a word of korean or tagalog, would they want to bother with me? anyone employed one of these ladies?

[i_teach_esl]

would it be too much to ask for someone who's in the hannam market area to post a couple of phone numbers you see for cleaning services? just if you happen to think about it when you're walking around there... i owe you 5 favors.
