 Get Yourself Connected

Postal Service
Mail is delivered first to KAIST mail room then distributed to each office, and dormitory twice a day.

To send mail, visit the Post Office located on the 1st floor of the Student Center (N12). Specify "express" or "registered" on the envelope if you need such services, and pay accordingly.

After finishing your program in KAIST, you can send your belongings to your next address via surface or air mail. At the post office where carton boxes are available, people there will help you pack up. Each box can contain up to 20 kilograms

Telephone
On campus, laboratories, school offices and dormitories are connected with four-digit phone numbers. From the outside, they can be called with the area code of 042 and prefix 350 or 351. You can receive domestic and international calls with any telephone on the campus, but sometimes they are locked and only outgoing calls can be made. To make calls from dormitories, it is necessary to purchase pre-paid phone cards.

Korea’s prefix for international call is 82 and Daejeon’s area code is 042. Your family can reach you by dialing +82-42-350-XXXX or +82-42-351-XXXX.

Telephone cards may be bought at on campus shops and outside convenience stores. The telephone cards are available in four prices: 2,000, 3,000, 5,000 and 10,000 KRW. There are three types of pay phones: coin-operated phones, card phones and coin and card phones.

To make an international call from a pay phone, Dial 001, 002, 0052 or 00700+country code+area code+local number.

It is possible to make international calls using credit cards. Phones offering this service are installed at hotels and major public facilities and have English instructions on their use.

Mobile Phone
There are three mobile phone operators in Korea: SKT, KTF and LGT. Procedures for mobile phone subscription are a little more complicated for foreign residents. You are recommended to be accompanied by a Korean colleague when you visit a mobile phone shop to subscribe to a post-paid or pre-paid service.
