No, you've never been to Korea. It's a different world to somewhere as simple and straightforward as the UK with it's characteristic streets and well signed areas. Outside of the city areas Korea is a serious minefield. It all looks the same and the streets are basically named by postal code alone, it's difficult. You can't really memorise a totally new place. I love taking the car out for a spin to random places, but without navigation you could very easily get lost for good.

And let's not forget the cameras that want to catch you speeding everywhere, navigation likely saves you a fortune in speeding fines just because you don't know where the cameras are.
