Dormitory or your own place? The honest comparison.

We are not going to pretend the dorm is a bad choice — it is convenient and social. But most exchange students only learn the trade-offs after they have signed. Here they are, upfront.

Questions students actually ask

How far are these homes from Hongik University?

Every home on this page is within 40 minutes of campus — 799 of them are walking distance. Each listing shows its own commute time, calculated from the building's coordinates.

Do I need a Korean phone number, bank account or guarantor to book?

No. You book with K-WARRIORS in English with an international card. No Korean phone number, no local guarantor, no alien registration card needed before arrival.

What about the huge deposits Korean housing is known for?

These are monthly-stay homes, a separate legal category from standard Korean leases. Deposits are small and refundable, and every cost is shown before you book — rent, maintenance, cleaning. Nothing is added at check-in.

Can I match my move-in date to the Hongik IEI semester?

Yes. Tell us your term dates in the request form and we hold the move-in to match, including the gap week before orientation. Extensions mid-term are usually possible.

Is this cheaper than the university dormitory?

Often comparable, sometimes cheaper — and always more private. Hongmun Hall runs ₩900,000–1,300,000 / month for twin-share, with none in room for cooking. Our homes near Hongik University start at $48/week for an entire private unit.

What if the home isn't what the photos showed?

We re-verify availability daily and confirm condition with the operator before you commit. If a home is not as promised, we move you or refund you — that responsibility stays with us.
