Hello ladies! I'm originally from the UAE and I'm thinking of going to Seoul next month for consultations about some aesthetic treatments I want to get. But I'm a little worried about the language barrier... Is English enough at the clinics there, or do I need to learn a few Korean words? I speak English well, thank God, but it's known that not all Koreans are very fluent speakers.
Has anyone here been before and encountered this? Was the consultation perfectly fine without Korean? And did you use any decent apps or translation tools if you needed them? Honestly, I don't want to feel lost while discussing my genuine concerns 😅
Any advice would be helpful! Thanks, everyone!

I also came to Seoul from abroad last month and was just as worried as you! 😅 Luckily, most of the consultation places I visited had English-speaking staff or someone to help with translation, so it wasn't too difficult. I suggest downloading the Papago or Google Translate app before your trip, but honestly, just feel free to speak English and they'll find a way to communicate!
