My friend stayed at another goshiwon on Anam-ro (main street bordering Korea University), and I think it was located between GS25 and CU. I don't have any details on the pricing, but she mentioned that they didn't have a big communal area or social culture like Crimson House.
You can get a one-room apartment with its own bath/kitchenette/laundry in the same area for 300,000 KRW if you have the 5,000,000 KRW as the deposit money. I suppose the deposit money is the issue for most.
?????usuallly its 10,000,000 KRW in deposit and 700,000-800,000 per month and over 800,000 for newly built apartments. A one-room unit with 300,000 KRW / month in Seoul, especially in the places where universities are clustered, is like finding a needle in a haystack.
Hello, I'm an exchange student in Korea and I'll go to Seoul and stay there for a month after this exchange. Could you give me the information about this goshiwon and the address, the price
Actually I'm looking for something like that Can you give the goshiwon location or phone number to communicate with them please i hope that i can find a room available
I applied for a dorm, but the spots ran out. However, the dorms at KU are on a massive hill, and my friends mentioned that they had to walk up for a long time and felt discouraged to go out sometimes. On the other hand, my goshiwon was conveniently located right across the street from KU, so I only had to walk
Does anyone know whether it would be possible for a 17 year old to stay at a goshiwon? Because I'll do a language program in seoul for a few weeks and want to live in a goshiwon during that time but I am not sure if there is an age requirement
Thank you for watching! Although my professors based their course content on textbooks, buying them was not required. Either way, the textbooks could be accessed in the library or online. Also, South Korea has a very distinct studying culture where students usually go to cafes (standard coffee shops or study cafes) or libraries to work. Like most Koreans, I spent the bulk of my time studying outside of my room as well.
my name is jonathan and the intro scared the shit out of me
A fun presentation and thoughtful analysis of pros versus cons of this room option.
The janitor in the elevator surprising you guys was the best part lol
You look so happy and it makes me so happy
Nice video! Thanks a lot for the great insights into Crimson. Do you know something about the other goshiwons, as a comparison? :)

I really want to stay in a goshiwon for my planned trip to Seoul.
Me too :)

Most people don’t have that kind of money.

Also you need to pay a management bill called gwanlibi (관리비) and a utility bill monthly.
@asdfgqqq1573 you can get 5 million/ 300 thousands on high hill places.
Cara, when on the rooftop is the yellow sky smog or a dust storm? Where I live a yellow sky indicates an impending tornado.

Yes, the name of the goshiwon is Crimson House. Here is their website: crimsonhouse.com/rooms.html. Their email is crimsonhouse7712@gmail.com.
@@caranguyenthank you! I would feel safer booking. I really like to live in goshiwon
hiii! it's a good and informative video. but could you give me an information of how we contact or how we booking the crimson house?
Thanks for watching! Unfortunately, Crimson House ended up shutting down :(
Why not Dormitory. I think it's more spacy and also there is bathroom inside???

Some can be pretty particular about being under 18, but I've heard of some 17-year-olds getting rooms. You'd just have to look around.
Where did you find this place??
I was in a Discord group with other students from my school system studying at Korea University for Fall 2022, and a girl posted about it.
315$ for each month?
Yes!
@@caranguyenHow much is the deposit?
Did you use iphone to film this ?
Yes, I used my iPhone 12 Pro!
But where do you study? I saw exactly zero books.
