Parking is not easy at some restaurants or bars in downtown areas. You are likely to see valet parking services at these places. Some coffee shops, hotels, and hair salons have valet parking as well. It is very convenient because you can just drop your car off at the door. When you leave, you just give them a notice and they bring your car to you very quickly. Unlike in the US where you tip the valet parkers, there is a pre-set fee they charge you in Korea. It's only a dollar or two unless it was at a major hotel. Hotels charge you quite a lot for valet parking.
발레 파킹에 대해 이야기해 주세요.
시내의 일부 식당이나 술집에는 주차하기가 어렵습니다. 이러한 곳에는 발레 파킹 서비스를 해주곤 합니다. 커피숍, 호텔, 그리고 미용실 중에서도 발레 파킹을 해 주는 곳이 있습니다. 입구에 차를 그냥 세우고 들어가면 되기 때문에 굉장히 편리합니다. 떠날 땐, 미리 말만 하면 차를 신속하게 가져다 줍니다. 발레 파킹 직원들에게 직접 팁을 줘야 하는 미국과는 달리, 한국에서는 미리 정해진 요금을 내면 됩니다. 주요 호텔을 제외하곤 요금이 1~2달러 정도에 불과합니다. 호텔의 발레 파킹 요금은 꽤 비싼 편입니다.
