how much does it usually cost?
and when someone sends you a text are you charged for that text?
cell phones here are way different than in canada and my phone was just handed to me from my co-teacher and she really doesn't answer my questions when I ask.
I just want to know the usual is on what you all are paying and what you all know about phones in korea |

thu_tinh,
ajuma's right, don't stress about it. You should try to find a Korean friend who might be more patient in terms of explaining it to you then your co-teacher. I've been told text messages are about 30 won a piece.
There are two diffrent ways you can get a cell phone, one is prepaid and the other is a regular account. I don't understand the regular accounts because I've always had pre-paid. It's not clear which you have, but I would try to find a Korean who will help you find out. |
