I just moved to Seoul and I want to be able to communicate better

, especially at shops.

What are the typical greetings I would say when entering a store?

How do I ask for trash bags? (General waste and food waste bags)

When checking out, do I just say 감사합니다?

Thank you!

<Greetings> 안녕하세요! (Hello!) 안녕히 계세요! (Goodbye!) * You can say it when you're leaving the place. if the counterpart is leaving, you can tell him/her 잘 가요 or 안녕히 가세요, which mean farewell. (It's the same when they're plural) 쓰레기 봉투 (trash bag) 음식물 쓰레기 봉투 (or just 음식물 봉투) (food waste bags) -> 쓰레기 봉투 주세요. (It can be translated into 'give me a trash bag' but its actually it means 'I want a (or I wanna buy a) trash bag Checking out : 감사합니다 (Thank you) 체크아웃 할게요 (I'll check out) If you have any other questions, ask me anytime🙃
