  119
In Korea, you can dial 119 in any emergency situation. Once you call, your location is automatically identified and a rescue team will arrive quickly provide you with professional assistance. Any foreign resident or traveller who calls 119 for help is automatically connected to the The Korea National Tourism Organization(KNTO)'s 24-hour tourist information centre for a real-time translation and proper assistance. The service will be available in English, Japanese and Chinese.
  Medical Referral
When you need to see a doctor, you may encounter communication difficulties due to language. You may also spend considerable time waiting for medical treatment in general hospitals and university hospitals. If you are not familiar with Korean, it is best way to go with one of your Korean friends or MAINS staff for interpretation. In an emergency, take some cash with you because some hospitals accept only certain credit cards. Medical insurance card is not recognized as a form of prepayment.
