So I know the water isn't okay to drink which doesn't seem to be a problem so far with all the water purifiers everywhere. But I am wondering if it is okay to wash off veggies like lettuce in tap water? I hate using bottled water to rinse off produce.

Also, I've only been here a week so if anyone has any helpful advice about getting around by bus it would be greatly appreciated. So far I cannot seem to find a schedule or a map of the area. Admittedly, I have not looked all that hard either.

And if anyone in the area wants to meet up for a drink or something, that would be fun too. My boyfriend and I are beginning to talk to each other like we don't speak English, so a little practice in the "native" language might be helpful!

I don't think rinsing off vegetables in tap water is going to kill you. It's not like you're going to get bubonic plague from the water.

I live in Yongin and I drink the water. No Mexico-type effects, though people seemed shocked when i tell them this. I know of no bus maps or whatnot. If you have a starting and/or destination, I'm sure the nice folks here will help you out.

If you left out the boyfriend part, you might have gotten more offers to meet up for a drink.
