Where to Start Your Life in Korea?
Looking for housing in Korea as a foreigner?
It can feel like solving a puzzle with missing pieces; contracts, agents, deposits, and websites that don’t speak your language.
“All I wanted was a place to live in Korea that didn’t require a Korean phone number or a year-long lease. Something simple, move-in ready, and a bit social”.
That’s when I found Enkoplex, a foreigner-friendly housing option in Seoul.
