Jump straight to the list or take your time and learn more about Yongin and navigating Korean life in more rural areas. About Yongin Yongin sits next to Suwon and just south of Seoul in the Gyeonngi-do. Since Yongin is one of the larger cities in Gyeonngido by landmass, the city even extends down to connect with Pyeongtaek on the northeastern cover of Pyeontaek-si. Yongin feels both like a city or the countryside depending on where you live. Due to its proximity to Seoul and spacious areas, Yongin has large-scale amusement parks and other types of fun. Tips for Rural Travel Keep in mind that rural South Korean tourism and culture planning may not assume international foreigners will visit. This means there may be limited English in some more rural locations. Consider the small towns in your country. Generally, small communities don’t have the financial resources to create information in multiple languages and they focus on the needs of the immediate community. This remains true in rural South Korea. However, rural areas in South Korea do welcome international visitors. You don’t need to feel uncomfortable visiting. The following tools may help you feel more comfortable and engaged in rural areas when English language information and speakers may not be available. 1330 For Additional Information If you find a place you want to visit and have questions about ticketing, access for kids, parking, or other visitor information you can contact 1330. The tourist information line offers free English language support via phone or message. Papago Translate App Papago is the Naver translation app and it provides superior Korean to English to Korean translation. You can use it to read images, signs, menus, and much more. It even has a voice-to-text option. Naver Maps for Navigation Naver Maps provides superior routing in rural areas. Therefore, I do not recommend using WAZE, Google Maps, or Apple Maps. However, each person has their own preference for navigation apps based on their past experiences. Naver has an English language interface.
