Hi guys, my family is over for Xmas and my parents are braving the subway solo for the first time tomorrow. They are keen on the new museum in Ichon, and would be getting a taxi there from Yongsan (makes it easier as they can just get on the rapid train at juan and not have to worry at all).
Unfortunately I dont know what its called. So can someone write either the name of the place in Korean or alternatively, Take me to ............... in Korean.
Also is Yongsan the sidey l yo or the bottomy _ yo? I can never tell the difference. |

�����߾ӹڹ��� = National Museum of Korea

��� = Yongsan
Actually, your parents should have no trouble just transfering at Yongsan station. After all, it is only one more stop to Ichon from there - they just need to get on the right platform!
To get to the museum from Ichon station, take exit 2 and walk about 200metres - if in doubt they can check the neighbourhood maps in the station, or ask someone. |

Who enjoyed the museum?
I was really disappointed at the lack of English available. Sure, individual artifacts have an English label but there are few detailed explanations. |
