Let me first say you shouldn't expect to get the driver's license test in 1 day, especially if you're in Seoul as the test are generally booked out. Second unlike some of the popular guides that will lead you to think it's a breeze to pass the Korean driver's license test, the reality is much more difficult. There has been a significant update to the Korean Driver's License Test in 2017 and it is now one of the hardest tests in the world. Although the test is available in English, you get little to no guidance in English. At the least it'll be frustrating or it might leave you so clueless that like many others before you, you may just give up even as an experienced driver. This is part one of 3 series of in depth guides to how I passed the Korean driver's license test. Let me know what you found most helpful about this guide in the comments below and please share this guide with anyone also trying to get a Korean driver's license in Korea before they waste money like I did by not studying and preparing.
