3️⃣ Driver’s license
I don’t know about other countries, but I heard that it is much more difficult to get a driver’s license in China than in Korea. It takes more time and tests are harder than in Korea. So all my Chinese friends around me get their driver’s license in Korea and issue international driver’s licenses. And I heard that the driving academy in Korea has a good environment. When you take the test, you can take it in your own language.
