I have a big pile of mail addressed to the previous tenant of my apartment. Friday, something came from the 지방 경잘증 (apologies if I spelt that wrong) and I want to send it all back.


How do you write, "Return to sender, addressee moved; no forwarding address" on mail, in Korean?


Thanks in advance,


MOS

There should be a mail box somewhere near the "bank" of mailboxes. In our apt building it has the logo of the post office printed on the front.

Just take all the mail you have for the previous tenants and put it in that box. The P.O. will sort it out.

Yeah but what I want to do is to write on the front of the envelope, "Return to sender: addressee moved, no forwarding address" in Korean.

That's nice, but that's not the way it's done in Korea. Do what saw6436 told you.
