The OP would only be confusing if you hadn't read it. The OP mentions Incheon and then Nam-gu. Call me crazy but I then assume that the Nam-gu the OP referred to was in Incheon. |

The French way to pronounce Carrefour is Kah ra four. But in Korea they say it Kah ra ppuh or Kah ra ffuhh.
Forget the 'four' as it is spelt.
Good luck on your mission!  |
I love when I mention Carrefour to Koreans. They look at me. Think a moment. And then say "oh you're talking about ka ra ppuh!" |
Actually, Carrefour in French is only 2 syllables, so it would look more like this: kar foor.
And yes pronouncing it in French also has quite the impact on the locals. |
