Helpline 120


02-120 is the magical number for Korean expats! If you dial (2)120 you reach the Seoul Global Village helpline. Press #9 and they connect you to an English speaking operator.
They can help you with everything! Directions, emergencies, information on events happening in and around Seoul and most of all TRANSLATING! 
If I have to call a Korean company or a Korean person that can't speak English, the operator calls them for you and makes a sort of conference call. I tell the operator what I want to say and he/she translates to the other person. So through the operator I can make calls to any Korean with simultaneous translation. It's so useful and awesome!
If you call them with any matter they always call you back if they can't help you right away!
The best is if you try it out yourself!

The helpline provides services in 6 different languages and it’s open Monday through Friday from 9am to 6pm.
