3층으로 가세요!
What does “3층으로” really mean? Does “1층으로” refer to the first floor (as in British English) or the ground floor (what the Americans call the first floor)? Suppose I am currently on the second floor how many floors do I have to go up when someone tells me “3층으로 가세요” (one or three)?
Would it make any difference if he or she said "3층으로 올라가세요."?
