About English Friendly Korea

Welcome to English Friendly Korea! Our mission is to make life easier for English-speaking expatriates and tourists navigating South Korea. We understand that language barriers and cultural differences can sometimes be challenging, and finding reliable services that cater to English speakers is paramount.

This platform was born out of a desire to create a comprehensive, community-driven directory of businesses, clinics, and various services that are known to be welcoming and accessible to the international community. Whether you're looking for a doctor who speaks your language, a restaurant with an English menu, or a specialty store, we aim to be your go-to resource.

Our Vision

We envision a South Korea where language is never a barrier to accessing essential services or enjoying the rich cultural experiences the country has to offer. By curating and sharing information about English-friendly establishments, we hope to foster a more inclusive and supportive environment for foreigners.

How We Curate Listings

Our listings are gathered through a combination of community recommendations, direct outreach to businesses, and thorough online research. We prioritize accuracy and relevance, striving to ensure that each listing genuinely offers a positive experience for English speakers. While we do our best, we also rely on our users to help us keep information up-to-date. If you have a suggestion or find an error, please don't hesitate to contact us!

Join Our Community

English Friendly Korea is more than just a directory; it's a community effort. We encourage you to share your experiences, recommend new places (using our upcoming "Submit a Listing" feature!), and provide feedback to help us grow and improve. Together, we can build the most helpful resource for English speakers in Korea.

Thank you for visiting, and we hope you find our site useful!
