Ah darn, you did not ask about this - there is a fast train and a bus going from the airport to the city as the airport is an hour drive away, so taxi is expensive. It makes sense to take the bus to the city and then take a taxi only for the short distance within the city. Within the city, taxi rides are just 10-20 EU usually. But the subway is usually all you need. there are 2 subway stations near Yeson, both are about equally long walk, but I think one of the lines had a shorter transfer walk to the connecting subway to Phil house...
I would taka a taxi on the afternoon of surgery day, its worth it. But other than that, the subway is great. If you plan on sightseeing, get a rechargeable subway card, its a bit cheaper and more convenient.
The people at Phil House usually have one or two of them speaking english quite good, but in the restaurants sometimes it all just korean and you can already practice ordering and paying by pointing with your fingers and making photos of dishes on the posters outside and then showing them to the people in the restaurant - lol - its how things will work for you in the next weeks anyways 😉
Good luck for the examination ... maybe you could ask them one thing , if you dare - usually they do the voice exercise explanation after the surgery when you cannot really ask questions anymore. Several patients so far found this very inconvenient because you cannot test the exercises , so you just forget about them and then do them not right later on. Mabye if you want, you can ask if they would be willing to do this with you pre-OP, so you can memorize them better. But probably they are on a tight schedule and have no time.
