Does anyone know of a website that shows a detailed map of Seoul's different gus and/or dongs? I have been searching and can't find one! When locations are listed on job postings, I have absolutely no idea where they are at!!!

The absolute best source for this is www.congnamul.com.
You need to have some basic Korean to use it though as the place names are all written in Korean.

Google Images is a good place to get gu-level maps like this one:



Note the quaint McCune-Reischauer romanization...for dong-level maps you do probably need to know some Korean. If you have landmarks rather than the dong name you can use an English-language version of Congnamul courtesy the guvmint: http://asp.congnamul.com/seoul/english/map.jsp

That's an excellent link. Thanks for that. The days of not knowing where the hell I am are finally behind me.
