  • Опубликовано: 19 мар 2018
  • Hello~
    Welcome to my Goshiwon (고시원) aka 'box room.'
    This tiny room has everything I need to live comfortably in Seoul while I go to University. Other goshiwons can be different from each other. Most have a bed, desk, closet, tv, refrigerator, and either a shared or private bathroom. Mine does not have a refrigerator or a tv, but I don't watch tv and I feel like i've been ok without a refrigerator. PLUS MY ROOM IS ONLY 230,000 WON. Goshiwons can cost anywhere from 180,000 - 650,000 (depending on the area and amenities in your room). My room is located near ehwa womens university station. It's close to everything from clothing stores, places to eat, convenience stores, and even my school (Sogang Uni).

    I don’t think people understand - goshiwon are often in really nice spots in the city. they’re used a lot by students, as they’re just a place to sleep or study, and keep clean. You can go anywhere all day, and Seoul is one of the biggest cities in the world. It never calms down. But with this you can relax in your own space after a busy day instead of a hostel, and enjoy being in a better location for other reasons. Typically you don’t spend all day in your room, you go to class, or explore the city, and spend time working outside of the room.

    I’ve tried living in a goshiwon for a week and fortunately my unit has a window. It was actually fun. You have your own space and privacy but at the same time you have housemates/neighbors. I think it’s quite nice specially if you don’t stay at home most of the time (like if you’re a student or working or if you’re just touring seoul) it’s cheaper and very convenient but I don’t think I could live there long 😅

    • @vivivicc2657
      @vivivicc2657 4 года назад +34

      weight is really important in Korea, in a way that it isn't even superficial anymore. they need to be perfect. and boys and girls have the same beauty standards and they HAVE to follow them, because if they don't, they probably won't get a good job or the same amount of opportunities. I know that it's pretty much the same in the rest of the world but in Korea it is something so fucking internalized that they don't even see why it's wrong or why it's dangerous. it'll take a lot of time for them to change their minds, and a lot of "not traditionally attractive" famous people for them to accept that there's more than one body type and that there's more than one beauty standard. for example, mamamoo's Hwasa is just beautiful, she's easily one of the most beautiful women I've ever seen, but netizens say that she's fat, ugly or a whore. same with hyunah, who even having a more traditionally attractive body, is still labeled as a whore due the way she dresses, acts and speaks. but these women are slowly changing things. a lot of Koreans are starting to accept other types of beauty, and even if it's a slow process, it is more than nothing.

      amanda bangan Well thankfully Korea had things under control pretty quickly. When i first arrived, I was advised to try not go out for around two weeks. At the time, it wasn't obligated, but they did have your address just in case and phone carriers in Korea would send alert messages any time someone who tested positive lived near you and tells you which area to avoid for a while.

    Honestly, the hate is frustrating. In my opinion, I think it's pretty cool to not waste space, like, perhaps there's a public kitchen to meet new people, or perhaps people don't really cook here and just go out so there's no point in having a kitchen. As a permanent stay? I doubt it, with having a family, friends, etc. However, say you just moved out of your family's house and just need a place to sleep, shower and work in for a little while, it's not that bad if you're going on a temporary budget..

      @@lucycastillo5092 It's called a wet bathroom. They are actually pretty common in tiny homes and trailers and people always assume that everything will get wet but it doesn't, plus it makes it super easy to keep clean since you can hose down everything.

      I stayed in Seoul in a hotel and the bathroom was completely an open space and the shower was in the corner with no walls only a slanted floor for drainage. I soaked that bathroom the first time because I didn’t have the control or awareness where I was spraying water 💦 💧 the bathroom dried within 10 minutes though. 😊 I get water everywhere when I was my face too!

      I lived in a similar room which had no windows facing outside... I and my roommate lived in such a pathetic condition. It didn't even have a proper air circulation and no Air conditioner
      Each day when I sleep I sweat so much that when I wake up my bedsheets would be wet because of my sweat!
      I lived there for 6 months😕
      After a tough life I returned back to my home
      Note: my hostel room was smaller than my own bathroom 😅
