loolook is a location-based app that helps you find nearby public restrooms in South Korea. The app combines official public restroom data provided by Korean public institutions with manually collected and verified information, currently focused on the Gangnam area. This approach helps ensure that the restroom information shown in the app is accurate and practical for real use. At this time, loolook provides restroom information within South Korea only. Our coverage will continue to expand as we add more verified public restroom data across additional regions in Korea.

Japan's transit system is the best in the world, and also the most confusing for first-time visitors. NipponGo cuts through the complexity so you can travel confidently from day one. HONEST JR PASS CALCULATOR The JR Pass costs ¥50,000+ for a 7-day ordinary pass. Is it worth it for your trip? Most Golden Route itineraries don't break even. NipponGo's calculator takes your actual route, runs the real fares, and gives you a clear verdict, with a buy link only when it genuinely saves you money. PER-LEG SUICA & JR PASS VALIDITY Every route leg shows you exactly which card works: "Suica OK", "JR Pass covers this", "Not on JR Pass". No more guessing at the gate. The detail other travel apps leave out. GOLDEN ROUTE COVERAGE Tokyo inner-city lines, Narita & Haneda airport connections, the Shinkansen to Kyoto and Osaka, Kyoto sightseeing by JR, Osaka subway, and the Hiroshima to Miyajima day trip including the JR ferry, with the exact card validity marked on every leg. SURVIVAL KIT: OFFLINE PHRASEBOOK Essential Japanese phrases for transit emergencies: lost tickets, wrong trains, asking for help. Works fully offline. If something goes wrong at the station, we walk you through it step by step. CLEAN AND HONEST No account to create, and no sign-up wall. No vaporware features: every screen in the app works, offline, on day one. What the app records is listed in full at iocodo.com/apps/nippongo/privacy. NipponGo is an independent app, not affiliated with JR Group, Tokyo Metro, Toei or JR East (Suica).
