아이들을 위해 멈추지 않고 달리는 기부 마라톤 '2026 허그런(HUG RUN)'이 오는 12월 5일 토요일 상암 월드컵공원 평화광장에서 개최된다. 허그런은 학대, 유기, 방임 등 위기 상황에 놓인 아동들을 안전하게 보호하고 지원하기 위해 시작되었으며 참가비는 전액 위기아동 지원 사업에 기부된다.
코스는 5㎞와 10㎞ 두 가지로 운영되고 공식 메신저로는 슈퍼주니어 은혁이 참여하여 따뜻한 뜻을 함께하며 참가하는 참가자 전원에게는 구경선 작가의 인기 캐릭터 '베니'가 담긴 특별 메달과 다채로운 기념 키트가 제공된다.
The Korea Tourism Organization’s helpline answers in English, Japanese and Chinese around the clock, and in several other languages from 08:00 to 19:00. Dial 1330 from a Korean phone, or +82-2-1330 from a phone registered abroad.
112 for police, 119 for fire and ambulance. Both are free from any phone. Police on 112 can add an English or Chinese interpreter to the call.
Buy one at a convenience store such as GS25, CU or 7-Eleven and top it up there with cash. It pays for subways and buses in most cities, and for most taxis.
Use Naver Map or Kakao Map for walking and bus directions; Google Maps does not yet give walking directions in Korea. Both apps can be switched to English. Naver Map: Menu (≡) → Settings → Language (Japanese and Chinese also available). Kakao Map: Menu (≡) → Settings → App settings → Language. If the option is missing, change your phone’s language and reopen the app. Small shop names and some reviews stay in Korean.
Book trains on Korail’s English site and express buses on Kobus. Holiday weekends sell out first.
