My "Mool Bo-Choong" light is flashing yellow. apparently it means place water, and while translations are nice, I'm more interested in fixing this problem. what's the plan of action when this happens?

Help!

This happened to me not to long ago and what I did was unplug it for about 30 seconds until all the lights go completely out and plug it back in. That should re-light your pilot light, sometimes they go out.

hope this works, you could also try draining it, a Korean told me to do this, didn't do anything, but it's worth a try.

You could also steal cardboard from the cardboard man/men in your neighborhood and have a nice little fire in your sink to heat water.......

(just continuing with the Oil comment)

What is the model of your boiler? Can you take a picture?

On mine there is a metal knob under it which I can turn and fill the boiler up with water. Then your boiler should work again.

Turn off the control in your place. Go to your boiler and turn the metal knob on the pipe at the base of the panel. Let it drain for a few minutes. Turn the water back off with the metal knob, go in and power on the control box inside...it should be good to go...happens to me all the time.
