In Korea they don't really have ear-nose-throat doctors from what I'm aware of. Usually a doctor will actually specialize in the eyes, or specialize on the nose.

What is your specific problem? If it an eye infection?

Look for "Ankwa" (eye doctor). They are in most neighbourhoods with their own practice or in hospitals and will know how to deal with infections and whatnot. Spelled 안과. Go to a hospital and ask for one.

They do have them and they call them ENTs (이빈후과). There's one in the building next to Junggye Homeplus. His name is Dr. Seo In-seok. Speaks passable English considering its a clinic in Nowon-gu.

Do you have his number? Do I need an appointment or can I just walk in?

They certainly do have them. ENTs, clearly labeled. I had one across the street from my old apartment and one in my new officetel. It's a virtual cornucopia of ENTs. I used to visit mine so often he'd laugh when I came in and the nurses didn't even have to ask my name. The number of times I got jabbed in the ass there, I couldn't even count.
There seems to be something like half a dozen ENTs in a 1km radius of Nowonyok - http://maps.google.com/maps?f=q&source=s_q&hl=en&q=%EC%9D%B4%EB%B9%84%EC%9D%B8%ED%9B%84%EA%B3%BC&sll=37.653765,127.060372&sspn=0.006549,0.009645&ie=UTF8&split=1&rq=1&ev=p&radius=0.32&hq=%EC%9D%B4%EB%B9%84%EC%9D%B8%ED%9B%84%EA%B3%BC&hnear=&ll=37.654275,127.06049&spn=0.006549,0.009645&z=17

I usually walk in. I don't have the number but the building is the officetel /retail outlet mall next to Junggye Homeplus just north of Hagye station. It's on the 3rd floor and called 시원한 이빈후과.
