Ratings and reviews

the worst app I have ever used ! as a foreigner there is no option to change language and even can't take screenshots to translate. the app which is made only for Koreans not for foreigners ! before coming to Korea I thought that developing countries have a lot of options for foreigners but now I realize that I was wrong !

This is the most difficult app I've ever tired to use. I want to view my bill and pay it online. There's no reason why it should be so hatd to do a simple task. That's the only reason someone would want an app for insurance. Especially since foreigners can't use any of the other things on this app. The layout of this app is ridiculous and overly complicated. The English call line keeps you waiting for hours and still offers little help for future issues. I have to call every month to pay my bill

Is ok that the app isn't in english and I agree we should adapt. But at least let us take screenshot so we can use external translator. Really, a person can use another phone to take picture of the app, so the security measure of not letting taking screenshot makes no sense.
