@mohab18 you don't have to like Kpop to love or like Korea or make that a reason to or to not to move to Korea cuz Korea had SO MUCH MORE to offer! I share your opinion of wanting to move to Korea ( l.I )b
:) At least you have separate rooms. Except for the bathroom, my entire apt. is one room...and my fridge only comes above my knees. Doesn't even have a freezer. Color me jealous!
HOW did you get such a big place. I had a one room (and tiny bathroom). The school used the excuse they had to get it quickly. Then after my year was almost up, they said they couldn't or wouldn't find a new place for me. It was smaller than a dorm size place
Koreans don't call it Apartment, just call it as 'One-Room house"
Korean apartment has at least over 2 separated rooms, one living room and one outer balcony, and it is generally over 10stories building, and about over 3times larger than the One-room house. :)
WOW, I remember those apartments from 10 years ago when my ex taught English in Korea!!! Most of the newer apartments like my cousin's aren't that tiny anymore. I think they give those to English teachers because they are cheap and efficient. Maybe you guys will be able to upgrade one day (if you guys stay long-term). lol. Anyway, nice presentation!
@thea0917 That's not what I meant. I meant getting compared to them gets old. We have our own videos and our own style, I think. We just happen to be a couple who live in Korea and make videos.
@thea0917 Personally, I did not even think about them being similar to Simon and Martina until you mentioned it. Nonetheless, I think it's refreshing to get a different couple's perspective on things.
there are so many videos on youtube exploring the cultural difference in Korea to the western world, and miraculously, you guys come across as most condescending and ignorant. stop being assholes or go back to where you belong.
@tempsfuit Some people are way to serious! I think its fun to explore and have a sense of humor about your experience. People who show their honest reaction to new surroundings, it really wasn't that condescending at all, and yeah, the wall paper stuff would be funny no matter where the apartment was located. This comment far exceeds any perceived rudeness you imagined in this video.
Can you please tell me about monthly rent, expenses, etc.? Not to pry but just because I am very, very curious about how much it costs to live there :)
@whoaza We were pretty surprised at our somewhat grungy apartment compared to the apartments that all of our friends live in. You should check out our new apartment though.... it's awesome :)
@morrowsinkorea well you're getting it for free so don't complain please... lots of people go to other countries without having someone provide their living accommodation..
Your apartment is actually nice compared to most single bedrooms/bathrooms I have seen for foreign teachers. Looks somewhat newer style. I'm also in Gwangju, haven't seen you around downtown or at any GIC functions. Maybe we will meet soon?!
@mziwewonga it isn't as nice as it may seem. There is a lot of mold that we have to fight. We are moving into a studio next year with our new school. It is nicer I think, even though there isn't an official bedroom. Just a loft.
Usually accomodations provided by companies are almost like a college dorm. Korean people have always been multitasking as far as i know and you can see how it's embeded in the culture in so many things. That is why some may seem a little rude but they're just trying to conserve and be a bit more helpful to the society.
Very nice thank you for this tour of your apartment in Korean. I wish i was living in south Korea
