Hien, I'm planning to go for a beauty consultation in Seoul next month, but I'm a little worried about the language barrier. I speak English but not Korean, and I'm not sure if the clinics there have English-speaking staff. Has anyone ever had a consultation using only English and gotten through?
I'm thinking about whether I should hire a translator or book through a medical tourism consulting company, but I'm afraid it will cost extra. Do you have any experiences you could share? I'd like to know what the consultation process is like and what I need to prepare beforehand.
Thank you so much!

Hi! I was in Seoul last year, and honestly, many clinics have English-speaking staff, so don't worry too much. A tip: request an appointment via email or chat first and ask if anyone speaks English—they usually respond quickly. I didn't need a translator, and the consultation went smoothly, so I hope you have the same experience! 😊
I'm also considering this, so I understand your concerns! I've heard that many places in Seoul have English-speaking staff, but you should probably check before booking to be sure. I think sending an email in English to ask would be more effective than worrying too much about service fees.
