Hello, I need some help translating my mailbox into English. The gist of the story is that I'm trying to order a simcard from http://global.olleh.com and I need to type in my Korean address in English. Here is the image

The second image is showing the illegible portion from the 3rd line of the 1st image. If the text in the second image is still illegible, let me know and I'll redo it.

lol, im sorry OP, you made me laugh.

I think you need to get someone to provide you with your address, should be on your ARC, type that (in a PM) not here, this is a public board.

However, on that note, what you appear to have written in the second picture is an image of a dog bone and not a Korean character.

The text is still illegible, I'm guessing you don't know how to write Korean? You seem to have invented some new letters. Just have someone you know look at your address and then type it to you in an email where you can copy and paste it.

Ah I see you went with the Korean wingdings font. I'm impressed.

I read: Gyunggi-do Ansung City Gongdo-eub Anjung-ri 811-4 203-ho

Anybody with different answer?

I was in Ansung about a month ago visiting a family friend. A city? I think not. Laughing

Well I'd go with the more modern spellings:

Gyeonggi-do Anseong-si Gongdo-eup
Anjeong-ni 811-4 203-ho
(& dont leave out the postal code:) 456-823

But the postal clerks would figure out either.
