What are some useful apps to download in Seoul?

There is also some small practical information about Seoul. This is that when you go to Seoul, you will definitely download some apps or have problems with wifi. Today, the editor is here to answer your questions. You can check it out. See if these software are quite practical. Recommended practical apps

The first is Qiongyou APP and itinerary assistant, which can be used to search for guides. Even when you are abroad, you can also check a lot of information in it, which is very convenient.

And this time I want to complain about Google Maps

Although GM was like a magic tool in Europe, in Korea, it feels like GM is blocked and unreliable. According to the map, all the routes were incorrect, and we couldn’t get closer to our position at any time. As a result, we got lost in Korea many times because of the GM’s directions. Later we discovered that in Korea, using Baidu Maps is far more useful than GM. Baidu Maps can basically guide us in the right direction, so in the later stages of the trip, we both basically used Baidu Maps.

Then there is Dianping. When looking for food in Korea, there is basically no problem using Dianping. I just downloaded Hanyou.com before my trip because I booked an airport transfer from him. I opened it when I was bored and looked at it. There is indeed some interesting information in it. WiFi

0 yuan WiFi? In fact, there have been a lot of them in the past year, usually just a few large companies cooperating with bank and credit card activities.

1. Free WIFI for 7 days with Bank of Communications MasterCard

Correct posture: APP reservation -> Bank of Communications Pay Bar APP -> Platinum area on homepage -> Privilege activities -> Free overseas WiFi.

You don’t need to worry about whether you have a Bank of Communications MasterCard in the above. You just need to enter the first 6 digits of the card number, 522964/5552853, and the last 6 digits of the card number.

After the verification is successful, fill in all the required information and place an order. Go to the official website of Upstream Friends Mobile to find the order you booked but did not pay for (Order Inquiry -> Non-member Order), choose online Alipay payment, and the WiFi machine is If it is delivered to your door by express delivery, there is no chance of card verification at all. Of course, if you choose to pick up the goods at the airport, there will be no inspection.

2. Free WIFI for 7 days with JCB Platinum Card

Correct posture: During the event, JCB Platinum Card and single-label credit card holders can use the Global Roaming Reservation Platform to get 7 days in advance on weekdays. Make an appointment to rent overseas portable WiFi 10 days in advance during the holidays.

This requires a real card number...otherwise it will not pass the verification.

Of course it is not difficult to get a JCB Platinum Card, and the Pudong Development JCB Dream Card is the best one to get. Communication

It is quite convenient to rent a wifi for three people when traveling. Hanchao rents it online for only a dozen yuan a day and gets 1 day free for every 4 days. Rent LG now

The Wifi also comes with an LG power bank, which can be charged at any time when the Wifi is out of power. If you travel by yourself, it is more convenient to activate mobile data roaming. It is 3 yuan/3M, with a cap of 30RMB per day, and the Internet speed is fast enough. Almost all hotels, restaurants and cafes have free wifi.

Maomao booked WIFI directly through a Bank of China credit card this time. There happened to be an event where you can use it for free for 5 days. The extra days will be rented at RMB 8/day. There is a deposit of ¥500/machine, which will be returned when the machine is returned.

You can collect it directly at the luggage storage area at Gate 8 of the departure hall on the 3rd floor of Baiyun Airport. Business hours: 06:00--23:30.

Because Maomao arrived in the early morning, there was no rush to return the WIFI at the airport. He had to go to Parkway Plaza to return it the next day.

Whether you are using a phone card or wireless WIFI, South Korea's communication business has been very developed in the country. Although you can purchase a variety of services on Taobao, we will briefly explain them here. According to classification, South Korea has three major telecommunications companies, namely SK, KT, and LG. We have used both SK and KT mobile phones. Personally, I feel that the former is inferior to the latter in terms of signal coverage and data rate (in the Seoul area).

1?. Short-term phone cards

On Taobao, there are many short-term phone cards ranging from 3 to 15 days, and their package contents are also varied: in terms of data, there are 200M, There are 1G and 3G; in terms of calls, there are almost no short-term calling cards that support voice call functions. Such short-term phone cards range in price from 20-150RMB, and we can choose at will.

2. Long-term phone card

Long-term phone card is suitable for those who have a landing pass or are about to have a landing pass, which means it is suitable for users who have lived for more than 3 months. It has to be said that long-term phone cards are much more expensive than short-term phone cards in actuarial terms, and the monthly fee of several hundred yuan is prohibitive. The one I personally recommend is a prepaid package from KT (cheap version) News Agency. The monthly fee is 35,000 KRW, which includes 6G traffic, 350 minutes of calls and 350 text messages.

3. International roaming and long distance (applicable to China Unicom)

I use China Unicom’s number in China, so I can only provide China Unicom’s international business information.

International roaming and long distance are becoming less expensive as carriers continue to lower fees. For China Unicom, there is no fee for international roaming in South Korea. As long as you are not connected to the Internet, do not answer calls, and receive text messages, it is free. If you answer calls, it is 0.96RMB/minute. In terms of international long distance, calling the local area and calling back to the mainland are 0.96RMB/minute, and sending text messages back to the country is 0.36RMB/minute.
