i am staying at the following address (the Gold Pond Guesthouse) when i arrive tomorrow - my first time in korea.

188-40, 14/5 Myeongnyun-dong 4-ga Jongno-gu,
South Korea

i was hoping that the guesthouse would provide directions in korean for my taxi driver, but apparently they do not. so if there's any online translation tool out there, please let me know.

The AltaVista when it uses Babel Fish, it will be able to translate the phrase of text or whole web browser with 9 languages, it will translate quickly with the language which selects a page a water service which there is. The Babel Fish translation with no charge it will be able to add in site and also the method is easy very. It wants adding in site, thwul it selects and "this it wants! When "cord grudge afterwords click one it will decrease in page to copy, it attaches the button and only it is done. The next two branches thwul from select.

If you click on the photos, you will be able to find quite a clear map which you can print out for the taxi driver. It looks like there are many landmarks, especially the subway station.

thank you all for your help, i really appreciate it. one last question though, if you don't mind. i have been give the international number for my hostel (+82-2-741-5621), but i'm unsure as to how i dial this IN korea. do i just drop the 82 and its simple as that?

[Ekuboko]

82 is Korea
(0) 2 is Seoul

if you are calling that number in Seoul, dial 741-5621 only.

if you are calling from somewhere else in Korea, dial 02-741-5621.

This is much more helpful:

If you click on "How to come" ( ) then you can print off the map. At the top are the contact details written in Korean which you can show to the taxi driver.

The address is 골든폰드 게스트하우스 (Golden Pond Guesthouse)

서울시 종로구 명륜동 14/5 188-40 , 14통5반

전화번호. 02)741-5621 핸드폰. 010-9921-5621

Good luck.
