What is the difference between goshiwon and one-room?
Goshiwon is a small room (about 3-7 pyeong / 10-23㎡) with low or no deposit and monthly rent around ₩300,000-600,000. Most have shared bathrooms and kitchens. One-room is a larger independent space (10+ pyeong) with a private bathroom and kitchen, but requires a higher deposit and rent.
How much deposit is needed?
It depends on the accommodation type. Many goshiwon require no deposit, one-rooms typically need ₩1,000,000-5,000,000 deposit, and share houses around ₩500,000-2,000,000. Check each property's detail page for exact deposit amounts.
How do I search for accommodations?
You can search by area or university from the homepage, or use the search page with a map to find accommodations in your desired location. Use filters to set conditions like price range and accommodation type.
Can I rent for a short period?
Yes, many accommodations support short-term contracts starting from 1 month. Goshiwon and guesthouses are especially suitable for short stays. Check the minimum contract period on each property's detail page.
