ACCOMMODATIONS IN KOREA
Villas: Most ESL teachers tend to
stay in villas, a one-room studio style apartment.
These are usually 5-10 story buildings, old and new,
seen througout every city in Korea.
Most schools provide
ESL teachers with a partially
furnished one-room studio apartment,
or offer monthly housing allowance to put towards
your own apartment. Larger apartments are usually
provided for couples or families.

Apartments: In Korea
apartments usually refer to the larger
and much taller apartment buildings.
The area of an apartment is usually measured
by "pyeong" (1 pyeong = 3.3 sq. meters = 35 sq. feet)
the Korean unit for area. Pictured here are
the newer and larger apartment buildings.

 Inside my apartment for 2009, a somewhat older building,
while working at a High
School in Busan.
