Canadians can stay in Korea for 6 months with no visa normally, but unfortunately due to covid, Canadians are now required to have a visa since last June. This is due to Canada overreacting and imposing this requirement on Korean nationals first and Korea having to reciprocate.

@livetravelasia 3 года назад

Wow I didn’t know that happened. Thanks for the update

@t.q.6639 3 года назад

Would love to spend three months in S. Korea, too bad Americans can’t do six months like Canadians. (Feels like we would just get use to the country and we have to leave😔)Would it be easy to rent/lease an apartment/condo for only three months in S. Korea? Would a place closer to Seoul be much more in rent? Public transportation would be our mode of travel as it’s not practical to buy a vehicle for only three months.

@livetravelasia 3 года назад

3 months could be tough but I remember tad saying there are hotels or facilities you can rent on base or something? My friend would just air bnb. If covid is over you can easily just visa hop to japan and back.

@arata573 2 года назад

I don't think its a luxury apartment because it's quite common for recently-bulit-aparments in Korea.and currently live in Seoul ( suburban area) but Im paying 650 USD for a small apartment every monthhhh with 20K USD deposit.so I think you're lucky

@livetravelasia 2 года назад

Yes for Korean standards this is pretty new for the new buildings but for my western audiences in America where we don’t have many new condos it’s considered luxurious. He did get lucky cause he got into the building when it was just built with only a few thousand deposit. I heard the price went up since

@ilianaconde2865 11 месяцев назад

@alfazulu6515 3 года назад

G’day mate. Maintenance fees for officetels are outrageous because it is not regulated, unlike apartments

Ok, I would love to know where or who you went through to find these places? My family are moving over in a few years so I would love to know more :D

@livetravelasia 3 года назад

It just happened to be the one my friend asked a random real estate agent. He wasn’t a great one either and they were yelling at each other in the end so we wouldn’t even recommend him. Either we got very lucky or as we suspect it’s pretty normal or a combination of both :)

@WhatThePheel Год назад

How does one find living accommodations like this? My partner and I are wanting to stay in Korea for a couple months while doing working remotely, Airbnb is pricey.

Windows and fans take care of the moisture. Never had issues

@jhchooo 3 года назад

What!?! I lived in Songtan up the road in 2000-2001 when I was stationed at Osan Air Base, I paid about $400 a month for 2 br. My friend who was stationed at Yongsan and lived in Itaewon paid $3,000 a month.. that was 20 years ago! No inflation in Korea? Also had to pay for my own kerosene for heat, it was like $2,000 whole winter.

@livetravelasia 3 года назад

Sounds like you might have gotten military pricing cause they over charge for military knowing y’all have housing allowance. And the heating is only that expensive if you are way out in the boonies where there isn’t a gas line

@jhchooo 3 года назад

@@livetravelasia I was definately getting over charged because of location and allowance but it wasn't that much more than local rate my cousins were paying.

can you please tell us about realtors?

@livetravelasia 2 года назад

Can’t generalize. They’re all different but one thing is certain, they want to make sure they find a place you’ll like and you’ll sign for. They’ll be pushy but you just have to be firm and communicate exactly what you’ll like instead of just asking them to recommend something

@islombabaev 3 года назад

I believe it is not in Seoul as you would pay about 1200-1500$ for such a house with a huge deposit (probably around 20 million won). lol

@livetravelasia 3 года назад

haha not that much for rent but a huge deposit yeah. Why it's not worth being in seoul. It's an old city anyways. Gyeonggi do is much more affordable and newer

@imanibradshaw 3 года назад

Where exactly was this apartment located? I'm trying to convince my fiancé to make the move. He's open to it but only knows Seoul and Busan. Which city is this apartment located?

@livetravelasia 3 года назад

Its literally right in front of camp humphreys. I am here right now actually with another guy that lives here and they've increased the price too like 700 usd and they say the new people coming in now are paying even more. But checkout the korean apt apps and you'll find lots of places everywhere. Try gyeonggido province. It's the areas around seoul which are much more affordable and newer cities. Unless you have a particular reason to be in seoul, i wouldn't recommend living there

@imanibradshaw 3 года назад

@@livetravelasia thank you! I really appreciate your quick response. Im not sure if you can answer this but my fiance plays a lot of pc first person shooters but he can't find info if Koreans play certain games he like. Do you know if Korea allows you to play battlefield or call of duty?

@livetravelasia 3 года назад

Korea is probably the esports capital of the world so yes they play it however Koreans seem to play other games more competitively. I see them playing this counter strike like game on tv but it’s called sudden strike or something. That being said I am sure you’ll be able to find people who play those cause they’re really popular games
