Taxis and ride-hailing in Korea

- Enter or show the destination in Korean before you get in: the Korean place name, road address and phone number. - Use a staffed taxi stand or a ride-hailing app that shows the car and keeps a trip record. - Match the plate number and taxi type with the app or the stand before boarding. - For a metered ride, check that the meter is running. For a reserved or tourist taxi, agree on the fare, route and what is included before leaving. - Pay by the method you confirmed, keep the receipt or app record, and check the seat and trunk before the taxi leaves. Fares and payment options change, so check them in the app or with the driver rather than relying on an old price list.
