Rent a Pocket Wi-Fi Device when you come to visit Korea. If you don't want to use a Korean phone number, but you only need some internet connection wherever you go, this is the best solution for you.
As a constant Wi-Fi connection is a necessity these days, especially when you’re away on a trip you will find this guide perfect.
You’ll need the internet to translate, do research, use ride-sharing apps, and find your favorite K-drama filming locations, also to navigate and look for restaurants.
You can stay connected in Seoul by renting a pocket Wi-Fi device or buying a sim card. It may be easier to rent a pocket Wi-Fi device but sim cards are perfectly fine too and they’re even cheaper.
Regardless of your preference, you can rent a pocket Wi-Fi device through Trazy.
Most pocket Wi-Fi rentals in Korea can be paid for in advance online.
If you want to buy it instead of renting it, you will need an ID card, for foreigners staying in Korea.
