Nah, the signage around that theater near the Han River isn't exactly winning any awards for clarity. Think more "cryptic clues" than "helpful directions." You'll probably see signs eventually, but prepare for some mild to moderate wandering. The ferry terminal itself is pretty straightforward, but once you're off, it's a bit of a treasure hunt.

Better to arrive early and grab a coffee than miss the performance entirely.
