Nowadays, more and more students choose to study in Korea, because cultural customs are also closer, and students can adapt to Korean life faster. So what type of accommodation can students who go to Korea choose?
1. On-campus dormitories
Almost Korean universities have their own student dormitories, but the types will vary. Some college dormitories only provide rooms, some college dormitories also provide cooking places, and some dormitories provide three meals a day. Generally, dormitories are double or quadruple rooms, and the indoor and outdoor supporting facilities are good, and it is safer to live in student dormitories.
However, there are many international students in major universities in South Korea, and the number of dormitories is limited and cannot meet everyone's needs. Therefore, the number of dormitories in most universities in South Korea is not enough. Basically, there are few dormitories and many students. Therefore, you have to reapply before the start of each semester. Generally, you apply first and get first, which creates a different accommodation environment from domestic universities. Doors in South Korea are not allocated according to the same major and class, so roommates are not classmates in the same major and grade. Students in need must understand the situation in all aspects of the school dormitory in advance. The earlier you apply, the better.
2. Examination Institute
Examination Institute was originally a long-term study and residence facility for candidates who were preparing for various national examinations. It is mainly concentrated near universities. Recently, not only candidates, but also many young company employees who live alone will choose to live in the Examination Institute. The current examination institute is also called "one-bedroom" and "hotel-style residence". Like hotels and residential buildings, the facilities inside are relatively complete, which is also one of the choices.
3. One-Room (single room)
When studying in Korea, when choosing accommodation, if you want to have independent space and complete facilities and convenient use, you can also choose One-Room. One-Room is a rental house with basic living facilities for food, accommodation and cooking in the area of a room. There are basically two ways to pay. One is to pay more deposits in one lump sum without paying additional rent. After the contract expires, the deposit will be returned in full; the other is to pay less deposits, and the monthly rent will be paid separately each month. After the contract expires, the deposit will be returned in full.
4. Full rental
Full rental is a unique way of renting a house in South Korea. The tenant handes 20%-30% of the house market price as a deposit to the landlord and signs a lease contract of more than two years. During the rental period, there is no need to pay any rental fees except for daily water, electricity and natural gas fees. After the lease period ends, the landlord will return the deposit as much as possible.
This way of renting a house must be through a formal housing agency (called "real estate" in South Korea), otherwise, if a dispute arises, you will suffer huge losses. This kind of quiet, convenient and safe fully rented house is also very good for overseas students with sufficient funds.
5. Apartment
Apartment can be said to be the top-level existence of accommodation in South Korea. The living facilities of the house are complete and modern, with refrigerators, washing machines, beds, wardrobes and other facilities available. Whether it is garbage sorting or parking spaces, tenants do not need to worry about it. The security system is very complete and the safety of daily life is also high.
Corresponding to high-quality living standards is high rent and a property fee is required.
6. Homestay
Home 1Home FAQs are expensive, but they are safer. Living with locals can get better care, which is also of great help to learn Korean , and is more suitable for younger students. However, living in a host family has benefits and bad things. Relatively speaking, it is easy to cause conflicts due to eating habits and life. This type of accommodation does not require a deposit, but you must abide by the Korean family rules: do not make loud noises and other regulations.
No matter which accommodation method you choose, you must first ensure your personal and property safety. For houses with too low prices, you must consider whether they have safety hazards. Therefore, if you really need to rent a house outside the school, there are many channels for obtaining information, such as schools, the Internet, newspapers and intermediaries. When choosing a house, be careful to avoid being deceived. If you live with the landlord for a long time, you should communicate more about everything to avoid unhappiness and all parties should adapt as soon as possible. After all, when you are in a foreign land, you should follow the customs of the countryside.
