Hi, this is Madoka. I'm thinking of getting some beauty-related advice in Seoul soon, but I'm a little worried about the language barrier. Are there many clinics that can accommodate consultations in both English and Japanese? During consultations, subtle nuances are important, right? I want to properly communicate my skin concerns and expectations, but I want to avoid any problems due to the language barrier...
Actually, for people who have had beauty treatments in Seoul, how much did they manage to communicate in English? Or did some people use translation apps or hire interpreters? Or should I just start studying Korean already? (laughs) Since it's my first time, I'd love to hear from people with experience.

I completely understand your concern! Language really does play a big role when you talk about the details of your skin and your expectations, and I felt the same way before my first consultation in Seoul.
