Getting off the bus in Korea / 버스에서 내릴 때

I'm sure it is the same with other countries, but I just wanted to mention a little bit of the little buzzer you have to press to let the bus driver know that you are approaching your stop.

The little red light that you see in the left part of the photo is the buzzer and it's on now, so obviously someone is getting off at the next stop. So far it's the same as in anywhere else in the world, but what if you FORGOT to press the buzzer and the bus is almost about to pass by the stop you want to get off at? What will you say(or shout) to the bus driver?

You can say "내려 주세요(Nae Ryo Joo Say Yo)" to mean "Let me off here, please", or add "죄송합니다(Jae Song Haam Nih Dah)", meaning "I'm sorry" in front of that.

Now practice : 내려 주세요. or 죄송합니다, 내려 주세요.

Got it? :D
