After moving in, what address or delivery problem in Korea kept tripping you up?

Not the big lease stuff. I mean the dumb recurring problem, building name mismatch, unit format, entrance instructions, parcels going to the wrong desk, food delivery confusion, any of that. What was the thing you had to learn the hard way once you were actually living in a Korean apartment or officetel?

Food delivery was the one that kept getting me. The road address was technically correct, but if I left out the building name or a short gate note, the rider would call every single time. After a while I just saved one clean Korean address block in Notes with the exact dong-ho format and copied it into Coupang, Baemin, and anything else.
