Got any ideas about how to find it?

A friend mentioned that their might be lost n found websites for the cab companies. Does anyone know if this is true?

There is more than one cab company, not to mention a large number of private taxis. Give it shot, but don't get your hopes up.

Hopefully it wasn't a DSLR! Or too expensive. Sorry about your loss.

A camera...that's rough. I have lost cell phones all over Korea but they always find their way back. Can't call a camera though. I would try to recall what the taxi looked like to determine which company it might be, and then get a Korean friend to call. Otherwise, um, yeah, otherwise...

I forgot my SEAGULL S-6 Acoustic guitar in a taxicab back in the Autumn of 1997. A couple months later, a girl that had been dating contacted some cab companies and asked them to tack a notice up on some bulletin boards. Well, soon afterward, I got a call saying this guy had my guitar!! Through a co-worker, I asked him to meet me at a certain designated spot. I paid his fair to that spot and gave him a 40,000 won tip. I got my guitar back in perfect shape. The taxi driver was an angel! I was so grateful to god, the universe and everything else!

My point is: don't lose hope. Get to work on it and say your prayers and cross your fingers! Good luck to you.

Yeah, but that might distract from the already inadequate bulge that I want to be noticed by the opposite gender when I step out of the cab
