아이스 아메리카노 한 잔 주세요. 포장이요.

Mid-morning — finding the museum

2 · Get a passerby's attention and ask where the subway station is.Show answer
저기요! 지하철역 어디예요? — they point and say 왼쪽 / 오른쪽 / 직진.

Afternoon — a shop

3 · You like a scarf. Ask the price and whether they have another color.Show answer
이거 얼마예요? … 다른 색 있어요?

That's a real day, handled entirely in Korean — reading the signs, building the sentences, asking the questions, and warming every exchange. You started not knowing the alphabet; now you can travel on what you've built.
