My $230/Month Korean Room // GOSHIWON TOUR 🏡

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).

[@song5361]

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.

[@alluripranitha]

Why therisnt a kitchen

[@vivivicc2657]

I actually like the fact that there's no windows. my desk is just in front of a double window in my room, and that makes me not wanting to go outside that much.

[@guiltyavocado]

that’s just how it is in korea. everyone is obsessed with weight and body image

[@虹小-t6d]

Some people want to stay healthy

[@doodlepig1128]

In my case I think the weighing scale was intended for weighing the luggages of the tourist tenants. But then again some people are really obsessed of their weight and appearance so maybe it was for that too 😅

[@vivivicc2657]

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. /thanks for reading it all and I'm so sorry if there's any mistake, I'm not a native/

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..

U should have brought 4 or 5 suitcases and put your mattress over them to use them as a bed frame and then use them for storage and pull them out to access stuff. It is ghetto but useful and your blankets will cover them up.

Brooke Pina literally genius

[@crazygoldy1538]

I don't think that way it would be comfy to sleep plus you would have to move the mattress each time you want to get something out of the cases which can take some time and effort especially for lazy people as me also have you noticed that the mattress is kinda cornered by the closet and desk so having a bed frame will just make that space smaller and then there would be no place for her legs. I think that sleeping on the floor isn't that bad and having less unnecessary objects will keep the room cleaner and even more relaxing (at least for me if that made sense)
