Jeonju City's visitor guide identifies k.ride by Kakao Mobility and Uber Taxi as possible app-based hailing options for international visitors. If you prefer to hail a cab on the street, look for the red Korean sign '빈차' (vacant) near the front windscreen and signal to the driver. A car marked '예약' (reserved) has already been booked, so do not treat it as available. App registration, accepted foreign payment cards and driver supply can change; check the app before requesting a ride. Keeping your destination in Korean helps you communicate with a driver. A prebooked sightseeing 'Jeonju Tourist Taxi' is a different service from an ordinary on-demand ride.
