## What is Chingu?

Chingu means "friend" in Korean. It's the friend who already knows Korea: it finds the places in your videos, puts them on your map and answers all your questions, any time.

YOUR TIKTOKS, FINALLY ON A MAP

Dozens of Korea videos saved and no idea where any of it is? Share a TikTok or an Instagram reel to Chingu. It reads the video, the captions and the signs, then finds every place, along with why it was mentioned. One tap and it's all on your map.

REAL PLACES, WITH PHOTOS AND ADDRESSES

Every place comes with its photo, its neighborhood and a direct link to Naver Maps, the map app people actually use in Korea. You can also add a place from a screenshot, a link or the search.

YOUR TRIP, SORTED BY AREA

Enter your dates and let Chingu organize it: your places spread across your days, one neighborhood a day, so you walk less. You stay in control and move anything you want.

A KOREAN FRIEND IN YOUR POCKET

How do you pay for the Seoul subway? Where can you withdraw cash with a foreign card? Where should we eat near Bukchon tonight? Chingu knows Korea in detail: transport, payments, local apps, cultural codes. It answers in English and suggests places you can add to your trip.

TRANSLATE AND CONVERT

Take a photo of a menu, a sign or a receipt: Chingu translates and explains, not just word for word. And the won converter saves you the mental math at every meal.

WHY CHINGU

General travel apps don't know Korea in depth. Korean guides don't speak your language. Chingu does both, before you leave and once you're there.
