Hello everyone,

recently our old house number sign was removed and replaced with a new one.
Means we got now the third address:

For postal purposes our friends still using the very old address similar 
like
"123-45 Doryong-Dong" and everything is delivered properly.
Beside of this address our house and all other houses had a signboard with 
an address like
"Doryong 6 Gil".  Those names I used for tagging under "name:en" and in 
Hangul letters under "name"

After the last renaming 3 months ago the street names sound like 
"Daedock-Daero 678beon-gil". It looks like they link the little streets to 
the big roads as the "Daedock-Daero" is the big road near to our house.

Do you have similar experience? How do you handle? I´m wondering how 
sustainable the new names will be and whether it makes sense to rename all 
streets.

Best regards        Dieter

PS: The positive effect of  above renaming-action: All the countryroads on 
the way to my office have now bilinguar sign boards!!!
