@@les471 What ever
$500 for a nice modern two story apartment ? LA could never !!!!!!
nyc could never!!
Sf could never!!!
Cinthia Larios is it a good price in Korean dollars? In Korean cost of living?
Literally
@@ahhitskatie9094 Even Cincinnati could never. That's how never America could.
imagine having an opportunity to live in south korea AND BEING ABLE TO LIVE IN THIS KIND OF APARTMENT. GURL YOU'RE LIVING THE LIFE. *cries in asian*
😭😭😭
Why can’t u ?
@@victoriakloe1445 you're probably right but i still have a long way to go though.
Honestly a nice place to visit but definitely not a good place to live
Living in South Korea as a foreigner is not all it's cracked up to be just fyi...
i just imagined my entire life here jesus
Me too 👁️👄👁️
I wanna live here soo bad. I live in a Singapore apartment and it costs $1.7 Million and it is a lot smaller than this...
Yeah. I’m OUT!!!
Dual citizenship me please 🙌🏾💰
You're too funny (but I literally did the same hahaha)
@@doraemonzu8773 same holy fuck. you even have to be married if u wanna get a hdb before 35
Just FYI the reason that there’s so much storage space in the ‘bedroom’ area is cause traditionally Koreans sleep on the floor so they have a bunch of mats/blankets/bedding/pillows that they use to sleep on and they usually store that in those storage spaces I believe. Not to mention the extra bedding they have for friends/family when they visit.
Ooh, I bet they also hang their bedding on that loft railing, at least sometimes, to give it a good airing. Or if they wash their bedding they can hang it up there to dry as well.
plus they usually all sleep together kids sleep w parents til like 10yrs old
$500 for a wholeass spacious 2 people person flat, but the deposits in korea are crazyyyy
skzboyztrash you’ve gotta be joking
@@Yukonemily So it's possible to find that kind of apartment? You need only to have a huge deposit? I will be grateful for your inside.
I heard if anything the deposits are refundable ? someone confirm!
@@xdplpv3030 Yes deposit is fully refund time you move out.
@@grow1820 does that mean you get back a certain amount of money that your deposit was when you move out?
Yo I want to furnish this apartment so bad! This is my dream apartment
nugget♡mikichi yo same bro
Omggggg when I saw all the empty spaces I just wanted to fill it up with stuff so bad!
Me too gurl and she be saying its a waste of space while i think u could do so much
Same.... as she’s walking around I’m imagining all the things I’d do
so with u i just kept thinkin ahh this area needs this and that
“Busan, South Korea”
*Train to Busan intensifies*
im (probably not) willing to go through all the zombies for this apartment dear looorrrdddd
Busan was not a safe place , it was shown in train to busan 2
@@snehagurung5470 There is a second movie?!
@@drawbootiful8665 yes there is, but it is not related to the season 1 character this time but in the first part it says that"people thought that a part of korea was safe but it wasn't true"
That’s the first thing that came to mind when she said she lived in busan lmao
Korea: *cheap apartment*
Toronto: *disgustingly specific land laws and some of the most expensive property ever*
@Rob Bob42069, haha, but the deposits in Korea are unbelievable.
Rob Bob42069 it’s the same in Seoul. Overly expensive for a shoe box
not the MOST tho. Singapore is worse
Toronto: Oh you want a bathroom? That’ll be $127489 😋
Nah. This is in Busan. Its kinda cheaper compared to Seoul. You can’t get 500,000 won with that size of apartment in Seoul.
I love how your apartment is flooded by natural light.
My house could never👽🤣
You’re not getting enough use of this beautiful appartement
Lol her loft: basically empty
My tiny room: am I a joke to you
i binge watch korean apartment tours so i can know what type of apartment I want when I do end going to Korea for either a holiday or working!
Ok
sameeeee
For everyone commenting how cheap Korean living is: it's not. Apartments like this usually have deposits upwards of $100,000 and that's what allows for $400, $500 monthly rent.
Source: I live in Korea
edit:: guys !! hi !! hello!! please reread my comment!! I did not say HER APARTMENT SPECIFICALLY, I said apartments like hers!! read "Apartments like this usually have [...]" !!!!!!!
and idk why y'all arguing me when *I LIVE IN KOREA* omg do a quick real estate search and you can find exactly what I'm talking about I'm not making these numbers up!!! I'm done replying
^ This.
Ur telling me she paid $100,000 at ONCE to live there....
EDIT: Are you using USD? Sorry I just have a really hard time thinking a security deposit could be so damn large
SECOND AND LAST EDIT: I just finished the video, you made a typo. She said it’s about $5,000-$10,000 NOT $100,000.
@@chaeyoungsbestie414 I watched her whole video, and if you read my comment I didn't say that she specifically paid $100,000, I said that apartments *like this* usually have deposits as such. This is a general statement to the people saying "Korean living is cheap."
well not in busan, that is where she lives. She also mentioned deposit on the video. It is cheap, since you get that deposit back when you move out.
@@chaeyoungsbestie414you need to remember she lives far from seoul.(it take around 4hours by car from Busan where she lives now).
That is why deposit is not expensive. The closer you live to seoul, deposit can be 100k $.(of course, need to pay at once.)
Such a cute apartment, I definitely had some ideas of what I would do for it. For example, that empty space on the balcony you mentioned, you could put down a rug and get some cute throw pillow and it becomes a reading nook. Or you could get a cute bamboo plant stand from GMarket and make yourself an “indoor garden”, greenery is so good for the soul.
thank you!!!~ ❤️
I was definitely thinking of a reading nook as soon as she she said she didn't know what to do with the space lol
I would make its like a YOGA place! The nature lights right there so perfectly match
@@Sophinan she might lose her balance and fall over 🙈
Those are perfect ideas awww
You literally live in my dream apartment
Things you can do with your "wasted Space"
- if you do sports, do that there
- clothing wreck part two!
- dance section if you dance
- a bigger working space than on the downstairs
DyingForCookies dance section is unusefull, it’s just waist of space
@@seansswamp 1. Waste. 2. Maybe for you it may be wasteful but remember that not everyone is you ... thanks!
DyingForCookies oops my mistake, also I know that not everyone is me. When did I even mention that? If your a dancer than you know that you have other places to dance, what I said is true. That empty space can be used for many other *productive* things, dancing isn’t one of them. She can use it for storage, workspace, closet etc etc. A dance room in general is just a waste of space, nobody has it, nobody wants it. I think you just want a dance space and that’s why you suggested it, so as you said. “Not everyone is you.” Have a nice day
@@seansswamp I'm a dancer myself and I do have a dance space and it is indeed very useful honey. Idk why you have to bother someone just because you don't see dance space as a useful thing. I was just suggesting a couple of things and if you don't like to have a dance space then it's fine but like leave me out of it please bcs it is my opinion and you have your own
DyingForCookies as i said, dancing isn’t productive. Again, stop making this personal.
This is totally my dream apartment... I wish the country I live in would even have this apartment style... we sadly dont have any houses with lofts like this :(
Beautiful apartment
Same, here its NOWHERE near how clean and pretty her apartment is...
The railings give me anxiety
High key tho. Like she said her friends come over and chill and drink their. Like that's hella awesome. But imagine being drunk and hanging there😬😬😬
Imagining someone coming over with a toddler took my breath away for a moment.
@@MsVaughnTV
I don't think she would let a toddler in her place to begin with. 😅
unicorn sally oh my god tao!!!!
Same
The space in the bedroom that seems like wasted space had me thinking "That's lush exercising space"
when i clicked this video, i didn't expect to keep thinking "so much space" in almost every area.
This makes me upset at how unfair life is lol. I pay just about 1K a month to live with 4 other roommates....
Burningdaylighter where do you live?
Manuelita Febres Brooklyn
Burningdaylighter waw I was thinking of moving to buffalo or montreal... can you tell me what do you think of buffalo?
Wel New York as a general has high living costs...
Manuelita Febres Buffalo? it’s freezing. And quite. Not much to do around there tbh
that entire extra loft space would be an awesome chill spot. tons of plants, tons of pillows.... that's what I would do !!
Same!!
And comic books as well
Lol imagine being one of her students seeing their teachers home
I was expecting Japan size tiny prison cell apartments, this is actually very nice and spacious.
for the Japan thing that’s just mostly the densely populated areas such as tokyo
@@penguin-tc1cx Busan's still the second biggest city, it's not exactly an obscure country town either.
😂😂lmao
Same specially for the cheap price.
That "empty space" at the loft balcony area looks incredibly dreamy thinking about if an artsy introvert had a few books and art stuff for idk meditating or "me" time lmao
Hahahah same!
Thank you for sharing, it was very fun & interesting to watch. That $5k is actually a good idea, it stops ppl from really damaging a place & having the rent low is great! I like the hot water thingy too is a good idea to save money
yes! makes it so easy to pay rent every month lolol
@@adriennehilll nice apartment drink plenty of water as well
Ok the architects have utilized the space so well, I can't get over how perfectly they did that. like the apartment is small but it feels so much bigger, there is so much space and storage like I live with my fam in a normal house and not even we have that much storage. Honestly I want one of these.
That is so gorgeous, I'm such a huge fan of the open concept layout and the stairs+loft HAVE to be my favorite part 😻
As soon as I saw that empty aisle space in the loft I thought of a garden area. I would totally decorate that into a like zen-garden thing. Would definitely bring some positive vibes
Get a tapestry for above the sofa. It’ll fill the space and look super cute
Thank you for taking us on a tour of your home. I hope you & Chloe are enjoying being together in South Korea. Stay healthy & safe.
When I was in Korea, I loved apartment looking, just to see what other teachers are in living in. Most lived in officetels of various ages. Your place looks more modern. My first place outside Seoul looked like yours. Tall ceiling, loft but kept bet at low level, large window which i hated because it faced south and got the full summer heat and also the neon lights which made my place really bright at night. My second officetel, was smaller in Seoul (more expensive), but great was they kept many public school teachers there so I had about 15 different teachers on various floors to just hang out. My 3rd place I decided to move in with a friend and find an apartment in Itaewon. Those 3 floor old housing. It was old but spacious and cheap. Got 2 big bedrooms, 2 living rooms, 2 bathrooms with tubs, a kitchen with real size fridge and oven. It was about $150 over my 500K won allowance but gladly paid for it. Also had only access to the roof which we had several parties, or just sun tan/hang clothes. Things I missed about Korean apartments are the heated floors and having those smart keyless things. What I didnt like was having entire bathroom wet because the shower/toilet/sink area was all connected.
"I dot mind paying $200 for this apartment" omg in toronto u would NEVER !! thats SO cheap jesus
They mention rent is cheap yes, but the deposit is killing me!
Here it’d be at least $7000.
Here it would be $2000 at least
$200 a month for that huge place is a STEAL. So nice, never move out 😭. Even if u pay $540 eventually again that is also amazing
I've said this somewhere else in the comments, but the person living there may only make 650 dollars. If I would buy a apartment like that where I live, I would have to pay twice as much, but I would also make twice as much. The price may be a little, but they may make a little.
Laura Bos exactly😄 some people don’t understand how that works 😐
@@laurabos9972 She probably makes around 1800$ a month as a teacher in Korea so its actually still very cheep
I seen you in another video 😂
@@laurabos9972 $650 a month? You can make $2500 working in a factory in korea lol
that empty space that looks over the downstairs of the apartment would make such a cute reading/relaxing nook area, like a lil shelf unit full of books/magazines would be so stunning
One of the best (if not…the best) apartments that I’ve seen in South Korea. Well done. That extra space could be a dedicated office/work space or beauty area/vanity set up. Thumbs up for you.
That’s a huge apartment in my opinion. Honestly I would be happy with just the one floor, but I loved the tour and you have a cute dog. Thank you for the video.
agreed. that would be my dream, no matter the location
Buy something to filter your sink water, a lot a korean homes have it, they either don't drink water from the sink and buy water bottles or they filter it, love your videos 😘
Korean usually don't drink tap water itself but boiled it with some tea and drink
Is korean water not safe to drink?
@@helenemaja0912 koreas tap is safe to drink we just dont like to drink it so we filter it haha
Correct. Koreans enjoy drinking Boricha (보리차) which is barley tea.
I LOVE this apartment!! Seriously it's so cute and clean!
OMG I love your apartment. So comfy, lovely and cute. Love the loft concept and the pink sofa 😍💖
"Wasted space"
No no no, it's amazing how much space there is in this apartment. You can use the upstairs space as storage. You can create a big pantry area in that space on the first floor. I WISH I had so much space.
Those railings are definitely not up to U.S. code... so dangerous. You'd never be able to get away with that here.
Yes, that railings caught my eyes and health and safety brain of mine was screaming. No children or vulnerable people should ever live there.
I've always loved Korean apartments and lofts because of how minimally-spacious it is and omg.. your place is my dreammmmmmmmmmmm apartmenttttttttt. I wish there were korean inspired apartments in where I live but there arent any so )):
Me and my sister really want a house like this and decided when we are older that we will get one like yours ,style is amazing!❤️
I love ittt, the aesthetic the space everything its so beautiful
me, an Asian coming to Canada: "DUh heCc!! They don't wet their whole BATHROooMM?!?!?" ..........honestly western bathroom are so hard and time consuming to clean, like you said, its easier to clean the bathroom because for me I just take the shower or bidet and wet the whole bathroom, add bathroom soap, brush it then rinse...EASy~~
I recently moved from a wet bath to a closed shower (in Korea) and hate it. I know my family will love it when they visit, but I dread cleaning it.
I've never even used one, but I NEED ONE
Wouldn't a wet bath get all the medicine cabinets wet with water from that shower? That means all your products get damaged from the temperature change and the moisture.
I prefer a normal bathroom than a wet bathroom because then there will be a lot of humidity when taking a shower .
I have been to South Korea a few times and for me the problem wasn't mold from humidity, it was that every single thing and my clothes (I had to take the change of clothes to the bathroom to put them on after showering and as I lived in coed space and couldn't leave the bathroom wraped only in towel towel) were wet.
your apartment is so cute!! hope you’re doing okay with the outbreak, stay healthy pretty girl! 💌
I love the light and pinkish colours in your interior, it looks like there’s lots of light and air to breath in the apartment! Looks super cute and stylish! Btw hey, I’m your new subscriber 👋
welcome to the fam!🥰
"oh my gosh like your whole bathroom gets wet"
asian bathrooms are mostly wet. lol
Something like this in NYC could never...
freezers in europe are the same we call the freezers in the usa “american freezers” but people don’t have them most of the time they are too large for the house😂
Yess ahah
My aunt and my grandma have one each and everytime we go there we basically act like they're super rich and modern and all ahah
You don't see them often, they just take soo much place
Ahaha yes! I didn't understand at first when she said "the freezer is just drawers", then I remebered how American freezers are. XD
i am always like really shocked in these videos at how small the fridge and freezers are. Like i have my standard american fridge as i am an american in america and chest freezer and still i am like damn i could use a drink fridge to keep my soda and water cool.
• w a t e r • Oh my, how big are homes in Europe(I might need to go watch videos)? In my house (I live in the US) my fridge is a little taller than me and it’s double doors
@@truefalse934 europe is very densely populated and in most places there's either a small supermarket or a local fresh produce market pretty close somewhere or max. 5min walking distance in the bigger cities. i get my groceries almost every day, a big fridge or freezer usually only leads to things getting rotten as people forget about them (at least here in austria, maybe it's different in the US). tho even when growing up we had a classic european fridge/freezer and we would go shopping only once a week and still it was more than enough space and still stuff would get rotten cause nobody ate it. also sodas are not really a thing here for most people and drinking cold drinks at home is also not a thing, no need to put tap water in the fridge lol.
Seriously loved this video! I find apartment situations in different countries so fascinating :)
I love this!! I'd love to live in Korea. I just love their culture and way of life. Your apartment is stunning!! Just so simple, but practical. I feel like they have something for everything and it just makes life easier!
I screamed when saw you sitting on the top of the loft OMG please cover those gaps!! Everything else is amazing!!! Nice video
The interior decorator in me was making my own preference changes throughout
the entire video 😅
So much space... so many possibilities 👀
you literally have my dream apartment 🥺
You have such a beautiful apartment. I like how you have it set up. I wish you the best, God bless you !
Love this video and how thorough you are! We’re all nosy as hell but you managed to answer almost all of our questions whilst still keeping your private information to yourself!
hehe glad you enjoyed 💕💕
Aww Adrienne I remember when you first got your apartment and there was literally nothing and now look at you decorating it and making it feel like home, I love it !! 💗💗
I love how you are so minimal. Love your space!
I really love what you've done with your place! I can tell we have the same style. Almost minimalist and I'm not a fan of big bulky & many furniture as well. The color palette you chose is soothing to the eyes. For the loft extension, I would put some carpet and a bunch of throw pillows and I'd probably make it like a reading or zone-out area. LOL.
Love how tidy your apartment is and the storage is crazy nice! 👌💗
I love your apartment! Watching this just makes me imagine alot of things i can put around those empty huge spaces.. i just wish someday i can get a same place/layout like this
i love how simple you live, i have the same living style and can't wait till i can have my own place and have it as cute and neat as yours
this is my dream korean apartment (for when I move there)! I’m still deciding on where I want to live. I really wanna be near 강남 or 이태원
Do not add decorations if not needed. I love the minimalist vibe of your apartment. 😁
So cute! I live in New Zealand and rent is $550 per week and the homes are generally pretty old and dank, although through a miracle I found a decent home, but typically they’re pretty average. I’m so jealous how cheap and modern it is! Definitely good value for your money!
Your home is absolutely beautiful and DREAMY af. I'm sure I would love it here. Thank you for sharing!
your apartment is BEAUTIFUL, and i absolutely love loft setups, and my preferred apartment layout. living in beijing, i always went after the loft apartments.
I really like your apartment!!! it looks large, clean and I really love the high ceiling things!!
thank you!!
A lot of places I stayed in Mexico had "wet room" style bathrooms as well and I LOVED it! I hate cleaning bathroom floors,and that made it way easier.
THIS APT IS EVERYTHING!!!! I LOVE IT.
honestly, I actually enjoy an apartment tour, especially Korean one [and its been years for me] because I wish I could live there someday in the future, but ...after years, I think its the 1st time I found this big, giant and idk, its rare sight !! I think the only minus part was the bathroom, you such a lucky girl to find this place!
Your place is so cute and modern! Love it
I love the aesthetic of your apartment so much!! Also if you haven't watched it already, I definitely recommend watching Crash Landing On You on Netflix whenever you have free time it's sooo good im absolutely hooked
This apartment is amazing I just love everything about it 😍❤❤❤
Ahhhhhh...the furnished vlog. Perfect. I love space and less furniture. Same with the walls; mine would have art by Britto. Beautiful. Thanks for showing us this.
Notification fam ❤️
Thanks for the tour, everything looks amazing!
Damn! I feel like everything is reasonably priced in Korea. Your apartment is very modern and pretty.
Your appartement it’s just perfect! Exactly my style with an mezzanine❤️
Wowwwww that is a beautiful apartment!!! I love that wrap around space!!! Thank you for sharing!
"In Korean's home you have to take your shoes off" LOL thats *EVERY* Asian culture😂😂😂
In PHILIPPINES too
@@kathrynjhaypalomo8183 Thats why I said *EVERY ASIAN CULTURE* , the Philippines is included too if you didnt know lol
@@AznBaabe lol wdc
@@kathrynjhaypalomo8183 lol👍
Lol it is.... its just that in the US or Asian living in Canada etc. They just don't enforce it on others cause they understand other people don't know about it lol but if youre Asian. You better take off them shoes before you step into the house!
Absolutely love your apartment. So happy you found this beauty and made it your own. I hope you are doing ok with the Coronavirus issues in Korea. Wishing you and Cleo well as always. ❤
thank you!! ❤
Wow, I am so impressed by this. I have been thinking about going to teach in Korea too and this is super useful as information. Thank you.
that is by far the best apartment i have ever seen. literally ready to move in there hahaha! lovely video by the way, i'm new to this channel but i loved it!
I'm honestly having so much fun with the massive amount of overlap I can find with Scandinavian and South Korean interior design, it's really similar from what I've seen so far.
Two hanging wall lamps would be really pretty then one rectangular peace of wall art in between it.
never say never when it comes to your dog!!!! Can,t stress that enough. Love the apartment!!!
OMG your apartment is so cute and that’s literally how I want mine to look, I plan on moving to Korea in 4 years and I was wandering were you got your couch from
omg it looks like the apartment from hello my twenties where the dude held the girl hostage
im glad im not the only one who thought this lol
Meanwhile where I live a place like that, even in a bad/unsafe area, would easily be 1.1k-1.6k.
The down stairs open space could be a cozy reading space. You could get a fluffy rug, then get a lot of throw pillows omg you have the perfect apt to creat whatever you want. You could use the upstairs open space as a home office, maybe even put down a yoga mat omg Girl take advantage of that space.
Your apt is so cute! I’ve wanted an over the sink rack for a while now! They look awesome’
Omg I wanna move to Korea when I’m older sooooo bad!!!! 😣😣😣 But all my family is in America so I would be so lonely 😭
Analise Ventura try and find a friend that will move with you! me and my bestfriend are moving to korea together which will make paying rent, and anything else much easier as we’ll split the costs and we’ll both have jobs. you’ll also have much more fun as you can go to places with them!
I don’t have any friends that have any interest in Korea though ☹️☹️☹️ but I’m starting high school next year so maybe I will make new friends that have the same interests as me 😊 thanks for the advice though!!
Analise Ventura of course! and even if you do end up going alone, you can always meet people there, and still have just as much fun. i hope you find someone who will go with you though!
Analise Ventura omg same? Wanna become friends? Lol
Me too I told my mom that I wanted to move to Korea but I'll be lonely. Hope we'll meet if it happens
Seoul never could with $500 with that high ceiling one and a half story and spacious apartment, but maybe $1000~1200.
Super duper cute! 🙊 This design/layout is how I imagined re-doing my garage, so similar to thia, into extra livable space for my older kids! This layout is perfect! It's truly what I really imagined how I wanted it to look & be! So charming!💯 Nice, nice! 😍🥰 ❤❤❤👍🏼😁
OKAY BUT UR DOG....is so precious ughhhh she was like mom why u talking to urself....wut u doing..she is soo 🥺
An apartment like this in Seoul would be more expensive ㅠㅠ it is hard to find a good place that is clean, new, and low deposit that allows your dog to come along ㅠㅠ
It's so cute!!! So much space for a Korean apartment. I want to pursue teaching in Korea, but my biggest set back is the stress of moving my pets. What did you have to go through to get Cleo there?? SHE'S SO CUTE!!❤❤
I love everything about your apartment... its nice ... i imagine myself living in that place and decorating according to my style ... 😍😍😍
