After having used bidets in Japan my eyes have seen the light. I'm looking to buy a bidet for my apartment in Korea but I'm worried that I'll order one from gmarket and won't be able to understand the Korean directions. Has anyone had any experience with this? Are they relatively easy to figure out how to install by yourself? Any recommendations on specific bidets to buy?

My nether regions thank you for your help.

I installed a cheapo 30,000 one at my old place. I seemed to get along with it OK. The directions were mostly just photos.

It's essential you test one out in the store first.

There's a store near the main street at Shindorim, Seoul. Unfortunately the bidets are near the window so you'll look slightly suspect with your pants down at your ankles while pedestrians pass by.

If you're the adventurious type, then by all means buy online. But nothing beats the look on the shop assistants face when you try it out in front of them.

If you buy one from E-Mart they will send a guy to your place to install it at no extra charge.
