Rachel has found the perfect boutique in the mall, but will it fit? And does it come in another colour?In our season finale, Lucy joins Rachel as she navigates a trendy Korean clothing store. From the struggle of "Free Size" to the hunt for a pi-ting-rum (fitting room), this episode covers the essential vocabulary for any fashion-forward traveler. Rachel learns how to handle the price tag, ask for different options, and—most importantly—what to do if she changes her mind later.In many Korean boutiques, 'Free Size' usually leans toward a US Small or Medium. If Rachel needs something a bit roomier, she can ask for 'Pyeon-han deu-re-seu' (a comfortable/loose dress). Also, look out for the white face covers in fitting rooms—it's a courtesy to keep makeup off the clothes!
