KMK: Iphone Screen Repair Seoul

Lifestyle Tech

If you’re like me then you paid a ton of money for your Iphone in Korea. Dare I say too much money? With that kind of cash on the line then it’s no wonder most folks encase their Iphone in over sized rubber casings so thick the phone cannot fit in your pocket and barely you’re bag. Sadly, I’m not one of those foresighted people, so when my Iphone screen cracked when I took a tumble down a slippery hill you can imagine my panic. Iphone screen repair in Seoul causes uncontrollably spasms in my wallet since I don’t have insurance.

For those of you with the blessedly burdensome insurance then you can wait for eons at the nearest Ubase Apple Service Center. There you can expect to turn in your phone and wait a phenomenal number of days to get it back. However, if you’re like me and just want a quick fix, then there are literally a ton of options in Seoul. I opted for I Smile Again, which pretty much sums up my feelings after the guy fixed my cracked screen.

Hanyang Building

With plenty of locations scattered throughout Seoul I chose the store in Myeongdong. Just go to Myeongdong station and take exit 6. Walk straight and don’t deviate. You’ll come to an Olleh Store on your left and a Paris Baguette Store on your right. Turn towards the Paris Baguette and keep going straight a few seconds to the Hanyang Building. I Smile Again is on the 8th floor in 812. Sure, it looks sketchy as an Eighties slasher flick, but have no fear! The guy inside that ramshackle store fixed my phone screen in under 15 minutes.  I was down 120,000 KRW but I had my phone without a sprawling spiderweb of cracks that could possibly cut.
