### ๐Ÿ’ณ The T-money Card (Your Key to the City)

You cannot pay with cash on Seoul buses, and buying single-trip tickets for subways is a hassle.

- **Purchase:** Buy a **T-money Card** at any convenience store (CU, GS25, 7-Eleven) for 4,000 KRW.
- **Reload:** Add at least 20,000 KRW at the store or at subway machines. (Note: Machines only take **cash/KRW**).
- **The Golden Rule:** You **must tap your card** on the sensor when you get ON and before you get OFF (especially on buses) to get free transfer discounts.

### ๐Ÿ“ฑ Must-Have Navigation Apps

Google Maps is not reliable for walking directions in Korea. Please download these:

1. **Naver Map (Supports English):** The most accurate map for Korea.
2. **Kakao T (Supports English):** The "Uber" of Korea. Essential for calling taxis.
