try in simulation to put your position in a korean city than try to use search
edit: you'r right I tested it in my Nuvi , the map doesnt have adress search , probably it comes from a Gmaptool mapsource install of 3 versions of Korean CN , can search just by Pois

I noticed version 8 file size is small. Is it only a subset/updated map? Do I have to use v8 in conjunction with v7 and v6 as well to form a complete map set?

Either I overlooked this information in post #1, or you have added this information once you found out. Either way: many thanks for your effort and replies!

Thanks for sharing, great help! Have someone update the PID/FID list with Korea V8 English please (I finally found it in your post above to back up my own purchased maps).

Warning to users of V7/V8...The spelling conversion from Korean to English SUCKS on these new maps. I tend to keep a copy of V6 (Awesome spelling) on a SD card for use on Garmin or in MapSource to lookup cities/locations. After finding it I then use V8 to get me there. Example: Chunchon city on V6 (proper or close at least) is spelled "Cun Con" on the V7/V8 maps. I already talked (several times) to NEVE Corp (Garmin's rep here in Seoul) about it and they don't seem to care much. The spellings should be the same as the English on their signs here...but it isn't.

Thanks again for all the helpful posts, I learned a TON just reading them. Hopefully address lookup will come later.

My Nuvi 250 shows this map (3 versions) is loaded to the device, but when I try to search for an address, it can't find Korea. Therefore, may I know if there is a Korea map that I can search by address? Desperately need this kind of map now. Thank you very much.

Try do not input a country name in window for spelling. Simply push on OK and see through list. May be Korea have in it a specific name like Republic of Korea or others and so for search too...
