Phone, SIM, and data
If you only conquer one counter in Korea, make it the phone store.
L’explication est en anglais. Les lignes coréennes et le sens suivent votre langue.
선불 (prepaid) SIMs live at convenience stores and the airport. The script is two lines: USIM 있어요? (do you have SIMs?) and 데이터 무제한이에요? (is data unlimited?).
Numbers: phone numbers read as Sino numerals — 공일공 (010). 공 is zero on phones, 영 elsewhere. If they ask a question you missed, 죄송한데, 다시 말해 주세요 has saved millions.
Wifi is 와이파이 and everywhere. 비밀번호 (password) is the word you'll use most at cafes. 공기계 (literally 'air device') means a spare phone — every Korean has one, and now you know why.
