What is up with the high deposit in comparison to the lower rent? Is the deposit a security deposit you get back when you move out? In NYC the rent is crazy high but the security deposit is usually just one month’s rent and you get the deposit $ back when you move out as long as you didn’t wreck the place
Yes, you can get it back when the contract is over. Just in case, sometimes we use some insurance companies when the deposit is huge. For my case, it's cheaper compared to other places, so I didn't do it. In Korea, there is this concept Jeonsae, which means big amount of cash deposit and 0 rent. And the crazy thing is selling price is almost the same with this Jeonsae price. So it's really different here. If you are Korean, you can get a loan for the deposit but it's usually up to 80% of deposit if you are very lucky. So in my situation, the only option was this lol
to add to what jina said, i've heard that the high deposit for wolsae and stuff incase say like something happens like a pandemic and you are out of work or you can't pay your rent because something happened, you can use. your security deposit to cover it. i've also heard landlords will use huge deposits for investments. i will say, i think i prefer the high key deposit if that means my rent will be cheaper. i live in nj and the rent is getting as high as nyc and it's to a point people have to work 2-3 jobs just to pay rent.
@@susancatherine4569 yeah, i’m planning to move and have been looking into it and found that out. also found out from a korean friend to definitely make sure i go with a korean person who’s familiar with the housing market/real estate in korea to decrease the chances of getting scammed. but it is interesting when you look at how it is here. especially when you dive into the price of utilities and the monthly maintenance fee also added to your rent.
@@gen1130 honestly i don’t know, but i assume the same here because houses from what i’ve seen are also really expensive in korea and since the pandemic, the housing i’ve heard has gotten bad/increased.
I love how not too long ago u decided you needed so change in your life and now everything is failing into place. Moral of the story, go for it everyone! You never know it might actually come true you just gotta give it a try.
Honestly, I think this video is absolutely wonderful and amazing for a number of reasons. People need to hear from motivated people like you to understand that no matter what their rhythm is, it's alright to live by it. I think this video is wonderful not only in terms of information but also some people will look at this and think "Hey it's alright if I move out later on in life, it's fine if I start small, if Jina can just at her pace then so can I." Very, very inspiring and helpful, I'm absolutely delighted you made this video! Keep on the good work 🖤
Jina, your English is getting SOOOO good! But PLEASE do not lose your accent.........I LOVE it!! Congratulations on your new place! I wish you so much happiness and success!!
@@rray.0.0 my university has a partnership program so I do not have to pay the education fee.... But I have no scholarship so I have to pay all remaining costs
I’m looking forward to see your interior decor videos! Number 1 was my favorite apartment out of all of the options as well. Looking forward to see this new chapter in your channel.
Congrats, Jina!!!!!!! Moving out on your own is always a huge step. I'm so happy for you and really looking forward to seeing your new content from your new place
@@gabriellarivasm Honest mistake. East Asian denominations go by increments of 4 zeroes and not 3 like in the West. I deal with it all the time, and I still get confused when converting from dollars to won.
with that prices $500-$600 USD you can rent a Full house in Latinoamérica (in medium-poverty areas or regular places) In country like PR-Puerto Rico. and $400 or more less you can rent a big studio or a mini spacious apartment with bath and kitchen and 2 room). and often include all household goods except when they are houses (it would be rare for the house to have all that).
Honestly, an officetel is a dream for me. I bought my 3 bedroom apartment in my country, but I would dream to live in an officetel and give up all this ‘excessive space’ I have to space of living.
i like the number 5 is rent is almost but abit higher than the last one but the deposit is also the same it would be awesome if they put a counter for the kitchen to use as a table to eat or if you want to knead to bake a bread and wish they have a space for oven like a medium oven or evwn you can put on the counter like i suggest and a small balcony....
The big deposit is interesting. In Australia where I live if you rent a place it’s usually 2-4 times the rent that is put down as a deposit or as we call it the ‘bond’. The bond is then returned to you when you leave as long as the place is in good condition. If there’s any damage etc the bond is used to pay for it.
I love the way you speak English, I can really understand, even though it's not my language, it's really good to understand you. I wish your new life in Seoul will be a lot of fun. Big things are coming in your life ♥️
If I was renting in Seoul, I would look for a VERY good A/C unit. It gets so hot and humid and a good system is a MUST! The amount of deposit is unheard of in the US. The deposit in Korea, which is usually at least $10,000.
I think you should've gone with the big apartment with the grubby bathroom. Just get some hardcore cleaner-disinfectors and go to it with equally hardcore brushes. BTW ... northern exposure is not so bad in summer because in the afternoons the hot sun is on the opposite side of the building.
Yaaaay, I am super excited for you Jina! 🥳 Living alone is the best thing! I loved the first apartment the most, can't wait to see how wonderful it will be once you decorate it! 💜
Best of luck Jina! I'm sure the journey has not been easy with all the decisions you've had to make to get to this point, but I'm certain the path will open up to you. You're a strong and talented individual, I'm rooting for you always ❤
Jina you look so happy and shinning in this video! I had a feeling you would choose n.1 and I'm glad you love it so much. I hope this change of scenery will do you wonders.
Congratulations girl ❤❤ that book line really moved me 🥺🥺 we should go to that place if we want to achieve something . You are my true inspiration I hope, you will get more success after moving to a new place. Wish you luck❤❤❤❤🇮🇳🇮🇳🇮🇳
I teared up up at the end--so proud of you Gina! You're pursuing the life you desire. That takes real guts! But I think this will be a necessary part of your evolution. 💝
The first one was really amazing, specially because it was new and you are the first person who moves in and uses everything. A bright future is waiting for you😍😍😍😍👏👏👏👌
I'm so happy for you! I moved last February to live on my own and honestly it takes a lot longer than you might think to settle down in your new place. But it's a special feeling to know that you have a space of your own and it's a new chapter in life
I'm very excited for your journey ! I hope we'll be getting many vlogs in Seoul !!! you go girl .(and may be you'll find someone there who knows ;) ) love your content ❤️
Congratulations Jina , I can honestly see that you are so excited and happy for this new chapter in your life... i wish you only the best. Know that you made the right decision Xoxo ...♡♡
So happy for you Jina unnie.... You inspire me soooo much🤗 especially when it comes to being a self depend person...... Please stay safe as living alone can be a little scary so please be safe.... And take care of your self... BTW did you get the jib??

Good luck with the moving Jina. Would be cool to see how you arrange the move with the moving company and perhaps some tips not to get scammed. Love your channel.
Wish you a wonderful time in your new home 🤗! Much love from Germany 💖 We don't have that high deposit like in Korea but mostly you have to pay 3 monthly rents in advance. Monthly rent will be in Berlin similiar ~

"For world peace I'm not gonna drive" - I like that!
This says was belongs to rm 🤣 from bts
Jina keeps getting more beautiful every time
It's because she keeps on believing and loving herself more and more beyond physical beauty :)
Eri 🤩
Your icon though 😂
That’s true
Yeah I noticed that too in every video.
"im gonna be minimal"
seconds later
"there's a convenience store in the building so i can buy a lot of stuff"

Not sure if anyone caught that, but 천만원 is not $90000, it's $9000.
i was looking for this comment 😭😭 i gasped so loud when i saw $90,000 as the deposit

These videos are really helpful for people who are thinking of moving alone ☺️
So glad for you Jina congrats on your new place. Looking forward to future videos from there.❤️
i like the number 5 is rent is almost but abit higher than the last one but the deposit is also the same it would be awesome if they put a counter for the kitchen to use as a table to eat or if you want to knead to bake a bread and wish they have a space for oven like a medium oven or evwn you can put on the counter like i suggest and a small balcony....
I'm happy for you Uniee. Lots of love from India . you're so entertaining and honest and I genuinely love that.

The aesthetic feel of ur intro vedio is soo good
Congratulations! good choice. I like the first apartment as well. So exciting.
Omg this kind of video is so pretty, the colors and the lighting are amazing. You look stunning too 🥰
I love the way you speak English, I can really understand, even though it's not my language, it's really good to understand you. I wish your new life in Seoul will be a lot of fun. Big things are coming in your life ♥️
jina you are beautiful confident and just amazing I really admire you. I wish you a very amazing journey ahead.
jina is doing very well....👍she is literally hard working girl...💜
If I was renting in Seoul, I would look for a VERY good A/C unit. It gets so hot and humid and a good system is a MUST! The amount of deposit is unheard of in the US. The deposit in Korea, which is usually at least $10,000.
I have soo excited for house tour 😁
YAYY!!😋
STAY HOME STAY SAFE
💜
You too! Stay safe 😊😊😊
I think you should've gone with the big apartment with the grubby bathroom. Just get some hardcore cleaner-disinfectors and go to it with equally hardcore brushes. BTW ... northern exposure is not so bad in summer because in the afternoons the hot sun is on the opposite side of the building.

Thank you so much for the video! It happens to me the same without sunlight. Which direction should the windows have to face, south?
Wow Jina I'm so happy for you, congrats on the new place!
Yay Jina! I'm so excited and happy for you! A new chapter and journey in your life! 😊
6:54 "I'm gonna be a minimalist from now on" (that's the winning line!)
Super excited for this one!!❤️😩
Same here!! Hehe 🤗
Ohhh my God Jina. You set your mind to moving out and everything felt into place. I'm soooooooo happy for you
i'm getting emotional. can't wait for upcoming videos and vlogs. yayyyy!!

Those prices seem really low compared to where I live in the US. Cool looking units tho
I am excited 😊 to the core 🤩🤩🤩to watch it unnie 😘

I’m so happy for youuuu😍😍 oh and btw if u still want to live as a minimalist then I suggest you sell your clothes to me😘😘 xx
As long as I saw the first one I was like Ya this is for you ! Congrats~^^
