Where can I find a good guitar technician? I want to have the action on my acoustic adjusted professionally. BTW, I live in Seoul.

Thanks

Strange coincidence - before I majored in English, I actually went to guitar building/instrument repair school. I remember having to make about 10 nuts, 10 saddles, 10 bridges, and several fret jobs in one of the classes. The teacher would sit up at the front desk with his jeweler's glasses and look for scratches on the saddles, etc. Some that work is so tedious that I told myself that I'd just pay someone to do that crap in the future.

To make a short story long, I don't know where you can find a guitar tech. Probably at that music arcade in Insadong.

What is the coincidence and how is it strange?

Well, I've got another strange coincidence - my friend had the action on his guitar adjusted back in 2005.
