And as suggested, this left time to do my laundry. More than enough time as the dryer only took 20 minutes somehow. Anyway, I put my dirty clothes in my suitcase and walked out of the hotel. The check-in lady who speaks no English was worried I was checking out. I told her and pointed at the laundromat over the road, but I don't think she understood.
So then I go to the laundromat, and a crowd of old folks who spend their day out the front of the 7-eleven next door not buying anything formed to watch me load my underpants into a machine. A lot of comments were being made and one old lady whistled. I took out my camera and they fled!
So then I go back to drop my bag back in my room so I could go to the supermarket while my washing was going, and the check-in lady wants me to talk to someone on the phone, I showed her a pic of the laundry on my camera and she let me go without talking on the phone... Then I put my clothes from the washing machine into the dryer, and went back over the road to the hotel to get my suitcase, and this was just too much for the old check-in gal, she threw her hands in the air, put them on her head, let out a huge sigh and then put her face in her hands on the desk. 5 minutes later I returned with my clean laundry in my suitcase, and she was still facepalming on the desk.
Such a tough day for her trying to deal with someone who does not speak Korean and does not want her help.
