| I was wondering if there were any deaf people in Seoul who know ASL. I'm trying to get some practice in so I don't get too rusty.... |

| I've seen some deaf koreans signing, but I have no idea if they are using ASL (or if there are alternatives for that matter) |

Nope, no deaf people there. Every Korean is genetically perfect. You won't find anything such. You need to go to America to find deaf people. I heard there are also some in Canada, but just a rumor.
I just pretend to be deaf. Cause Like the dog in that Eddie Murphy film said, "I'm not deaf, I just can't stand listening to her talk."

I'm expecting not many..maybe tourists..maybe someone associated with the military base..but unlikely anyone in the ESL industry unless they're the spouse of someone. |
