Apartment hunting in Seoul, Korea | Seoul Apartment Tour (with rent prices)
Grab a snack and a drink cause I’ll be showing you 7 Seoul apartment tours, ranging from different prices and sizes! This time around it did take me a while to find some apartments that I really liked, but once I found them I was able to see like 5 in a day! My top 2 priorities are to find a bigger place that can accommodate my pup Albie and me, and having loads of natural sunlight! Let’s see if I was able to find an apartment like that and which one did I eventually end up signing the contract for :)
(^▽^)/ Let's be friends! \(^▽^)

Heya homies! So I’ll be doing a major life update this month~ there’s lots of changes and such which lil is a little scary but I’m really excited. I hope this video finds you well homies!! Also, if you want to learn more about how to find an apt in Korea, deposits, how to find a real estate agent, etc I have a video here explaining it all! • How To Find an Apartme...
Just a super quick Q&A:
- do you get your deposit back? Yep! However, if there's anything that goes beyond the regular wear and tear of living in an apartment then the landlady/landlord will make you pay for that ish!

Let’s all take a moment of silence for having dreams and then the landlords of the world saying “no pets, absolutely not”. 🥺
😶 thank you for that Yamira 🙇♀️
Some people (LIKE ME) don't have pets, don't want pets, and don't want to hear our neighbors pets barking all the time! Where I live there is no such thing as places that don't allow pets--everyone allows them and it drives me crazy! To me that's being UNFAIR to those of us who don't want pets, why do we have to put up with that???
@@jekku4688 sorry, I totally understand You, but at the same time, u sound like a Karen
@@jekku4688 they’re just pets chill... and it’s natural for dogs to bark it’s not like you can stop them from doing so if you don’t like it then leave it’s not that serious
@@jekku4688 pack it up karen 😌✋
“After seeing that apartement and having my dreams crushed...” same
Ooooof yeah 🥲🥲🥲🥲
I would minimize whatever i needed to in order to fit into that 5th apartment😭😭 that sunlight was all id need
Same!! I live in LA and learned very quickly that space/storage is very low on my list of priorities
Exactly! It was beautiful
so so beautiful right!
same oml
Of course my ass wants the big expensive one lmao THOSE WINDOWS
GIRL I KNOWWWWWWWWWWW I pictured my whole life there!
@@YOHOMEGIRL Maybe enter a lottery! XD
im in love with that apartment t_t
Lack of sunlight really affects my mood, so I hope you're able to get a good spot!
Jacqueline guuurl- yes! Atleast I was able to enjoy this abundance of natural sunlight for a good 2 years!
This girl makes me think she breathes sunlight lol
same TT
@@yaksokupjm ㅋㅋㅋㅋ
Ahhhhh loved this!!! Feel you on the lighting! I only get natural light from 6am to 9am and then it’s just dark 😅😩
I feel that 😭 I have a nice window but it’s blocked by furniture 😂
Aww you two should do a virtual collab together 🤗🤔
OMG ALEXA HI! WHAT ARE YOU DOING ON THIS SIDE OF KZhead LOL, YOU MOVING TO KOREA?😭😭😭👁👁
GUrL wHAT?! I'm literally always floored at how bright your apartment is, I'm like damn she really be bringing in that sunshine!!! hahaha. Actually after watching your morning routine videos I've been like hmm now I guess that's how my life is gonna have to be!
Damn apartment 5 is like my DREAM apartment. The sunlight coming in is so beautiful
ur eyeshadow looks SO GOOD
Thank you Avery! It started like ooo let me just pet some yellow~and then I just kept adding more and more till I was just there saying "what have I done..." hahahaha luckily when I m added in the 2 liners and mascara it pulled it together 🙏🙏
Thanks for joining me apartment hunting homies! It was really fun to check out new places~ Which apartment could you see yourself living in? 🤔💖 Also, if you want to learn more about how to find an apt in Korea, deposits, how to find a real estate agent, etc I have a video here explaining it all! kzhead.info/sun/iZWSm9CIpImnbI0/bejne.html
The 5th one would be a dream for me ! May I ask what area did you look in to ? Because in Seoul, i feel like the renting price can vary A LOT depending on it.
I really liked the apt 3 and the apt 5, really nice!
I literally howled “NOOOOO” at the let down for apt 7, but that’s okay. There’s always next year. Atleast you have such a cute lil pupper face to brighten up your days :)))
Dude I love how much Korean apartments have learned to maximize space like those high ass storage cabinets you could never find in LA (looking that new and nice at that price point too)
Omg the pet thing!! “20 apartments available” then I select pet friendly with washer & dryer “2 apartments available” 😂 Gahh, but it’s non negotiable! Gotta bring my Mochi cat with me 🐈
What a cutie name!! Hope you and Mochi are doing well 😊
Giiiirl one day you’ll be able to afford those places you loved! Your content is A1 and it’s only a matter of time before you blow up!
Stephany, I really appreciate you saying that. Thank you ♡
That 5th apartment look so good that sunlight tho😱😱
Ugh I know!!!!!!!!🥴🥴🥴🥴🥴🤧🥲🥲
@@YOHOMEGIRL i wish you the best its okay your current places also still the best 💕💕
@@JunUdan aw thank you Jun!!
I'm so sorry you didn't end up finding a new space, but with time and more searching I'm sure that you'll find your perfect place. As for all the information in this video, it was interesting. Despite me already knowing how the whole down payment amount is normal in SK, I'm still always so surprised to see how much of that money you have to take into account when you're looking for a place. lol
I swear Korea seems like the ideal place for single ppl, the dream 😪🤧!
damnnnnn apartment 4 is the most beautiful thing I've ever seen LET'S ALL GIVE HER OUR MONEY TO LET HER LIVE THERE 😂😂😂
Here's my cash app 🙏🤣
😆😂😂😂
She does have a patreon...
9:06 At first when you were going through this apt. I was really underwhelmed. But when I saw this shot, it was almost like I could feel the sunlight. Imagining the room with an herb garden and a reading nook was all it took for it to be my favorite.
Apartment 7 was so nice, and it had a spacious terrace. Ideal place to live, sucks about their no pet policy 😩
Wasn't it?! Yeah welp, there will be others after this, I'm sure of it!
omg that ending was so tragic.., hope you have more luck in the future
🥲🥲🥲🥲🥲🥲 thank you Marko!!!
big windows where sunlight comes through are a MUST
So excited for you and Albie to find a new beautiful home to thrive in 💕🥰
Yaaay thank you Ali!!!
Natural light is so important!! apartments 5 and 7 were so nice! storage space is so so important too, so I feel you
Yeah homie 🥲 I really thought abt apt 5 but ultimately I just have too many thingsss clothes & other stuff in general so 😢😢😢
Apartment hunting is harddddd.. currently going through the same thing and yikes. Everything is so expensive and with the climate of the economy in America rn
homie, I am wishing you the best of luck!!! Make sure to have all your papers ready to go when you find that one you like!
@@YOHOMEGIRL Thank you! And yes great tip; have to make sure everything is in order before I make any moves. 🙏🏿💕
You got this! 🙆♀️
I just had 2add on to this important comment. I understand inflation n everything but seriously speaking, we are NOT all wealthy people. Look at 2020 so many ppl were not working, so many places closed forever. Everything has changed! Why cant they lower prices knowing this? Why do so many of us work to pay bills and cant save money or have extra for vacations anymore? That makes life suck but do they care??? Nooo! Ughh feels like they just greedy this is America we ALL should have a place to live wtf???
@@mariecolette9066 yes! Every word of this is spot on! Isn't so hard..
Literally watched your previous apartment videos and now I’m here, lol I’m so happy you uploaded another, also your outfit and make-up look absolutely stunning ❤️🌈
Ah I’m so devastated, I love number 4 & 5! But I’m happy that you got a discount in the end!!
yes, atleast there was some good news!!! Thanks for watching RazeAstro~
damn I'm obsessed with apartment hunting videos and I'm not gonna be looking for an apartment anytime soon 😂😂😂 apartment 5 is definitely my favourite out of all of them it's so disappointing that you couldn't get the last one cause of pets 😔😔
hahaha, I think I might just go apartment hunting for fun from time to time. I'll try out some different areas of Seoul and see what they have to offer~! Yeah it sucked that I couldn't get that last one, but I think it's bc there will be a better one later!
@@YOHOMEGIRL what building was apt 5 in?! I must try to make this happen for me!! 💜💜 Great video. I’d love to see more from time to time as well.
I love those videos ! I always enjoy seeing what apartments look like in other countries (I'm French), how different the view/skyline is, etc ! really enjoyed your video and hope you'll find your happy place xx
girllll your makeup in this makes me happy, i need to recreate it 💕
I fell in love with apartment 5! All that sunlight!!! And that little space with the glass windows? agh ❤ I wish I could live there. Also I'm so sorry you couldn't move to the last one, you seemed so excited about the terrace. But hey, this only means there's something better waiting for you and Albie, it just wasn't the right time for you to find it 😊 Te mando buenas vibras desde México 💚
Thank you for posting a realistic moving video! I'm so sorry it didn't work out but you'll get that perfect place one day!
You’ll find the perfect place when the time is right. Wishing you the best boo! ❤️
I'm going to Korea for study abroad in July and I've been binging all your videos for the past week. It'd be an understatement to say I was excited when I saw that you posted a new vid. Wishing you the best with your apartment and job
I’m sorry you weren’t able to get a new place. I hope you find one that suits you and your pet the next time you look. Also as usual your fashion is on point. It really motivates me to continue my style journey! Have a great day!
okay, but u have such a big heart thinking not just about yourself but Albie (and his needs) and that's so cute! wishing you always the best, baby 🤍
Yes definitely don't give up~ I was just in the same position searching high and low trying to get away from my loud rude neighbors and after almost 6 months (but mostly 3 really active months) of searching,, finally found a place ! (only downside is my allergies from the left behind pet dander in the carpet but I'll take that over no sleep lol) Cheering for you & Albie to find a better, fitting home with lots of natural light and space ! 💛🧡❤
You not moving into the apartment with those huge windows and natural light made me super sad lol. I would've been like take my money now! I live in Daegu and the natural light situation is what sealed my apartment decision.
Trust me, I really wanted to but that storage 🤧 it would barely fit my clothes 😢😢
aww :( it sucks you couldn't move into that last apartment b/c they didn't allow pets!!! :'( It had so much room! The little terrace!! It's okay tho! Imma watch all your videos with ads on so you can get that coin sis and move into a better place next year!!!
omg ;; w ;; thank you so much vroomfs! I really appreciate the support!! Yes, I am keeping my hopes high for next year :D thank you for taking the time to stop by!
I'm in love with apartment 5 😍
i'm moving to korea soon all by myself and seeing the different apartments is making me hella excited
Thank you so much for the info eventhough you didn’t decide to move taking the time to show us ! 🥺🥺🥺 ly have a great day ☀️
Thank you for always inspiring me to dream and set new goals for myself 😊 love you so much!
Aw thank you for watching my videos 🥲🥲🥲😋
I loveddddd apt 3. the pink and gold. chefs kiss
ITS SO COLORFUL I LOVE IT
Omg, sissel and you! Two apartment/moving related videos
Oooo yaaay!! Thanks for watching like always Magalí
I liked the 5th apartment the best, looks very modern and has lots of natural light!
Hoping you get an awesome apartment next year! Totally feel you on the lighting though!
Ahh man, dreams crushed. I was about to be like "are we moviiiiing?". So sorry it didn't work out this time but I believe you'll find somewhere better in future that has everything you need ♥️
Your house is just amazing, beautiful, gorgeous,and all other worlds that can say how stunning your apartment, your can be great example to people who use one single or White colours in there apartment ❤️❤️ I seriously love your apartment. Can't find words to appreciate it ❤️❤️.
I respect you so much for saying no to that apartment for Albie's sake!!! Too many people would have gotten rid of the doggy. Im really wishing the best for you in your living and job situation 💕
loved this video and LOVED your eyeshadow! xoxo
Awww sucks that’s construction is blocking your sunlight! I feel like the same is happening everywhere in LA and soon enough this place is only gonna consist of tall buildings 😣 ahhh hopefully you and Albie find a unit with sunlight and space!✨
omg i love the 5th apartment 🥺🥺🥺
I like all of them, your pick especially!
omg!! i just saw ur apartment tour a few days ago and i loved it 😍😍 but much luck to u finding a new one!🤞🏻🤞🏻 gonna watch the video now haha
Heya Jacqueline~ oh did you? Thanks so much for clicking on the video and for watching this one 🤗🤗🤗
@@YOHOMEGIRL yeahh i love your content a lot! and even though you didnt get a new apartment i hope it still feels as a new start bcs of your new lease ♥️
thank u so much for sharing your experience 🥳💕 so interesting
The 4th apartment looked so good
This is so interesting! These apartments are way cheaper than I would have thought!! Wow!!
i’m obsessed with apartment hunting videos rn
I loved this! What you look for in an apartment is what I look for hahaha (minus the pet part)
Alot of ppl looking for months to a year, so don't rush, some say they search over 15 to 20 different apt until the end, found the perfect one. Definitely look for breathable and sunlight must have windows or a great view. Good luck on the search!
I loveee love love your top and your makeup, so cute!
Thanks Dani! The button up is a diy I did with a potato (used it as a stamp) lmao!
Girl, first of all, I am so glad that you are the kind of person that think about you but also, a lot about your dog. As a dog owner myself, I know that moving to Korea with dog is adding difficulties, especially when finding a place to rent... BUT, you need to know that dogs are amazing and adjust very well to almost any place. Some studies showed that dogs living in flats are happier than dogs living in houses. Why ? Because the owner walk them a lot, spend real time with them, play, explore. While some people with house and garden, just stick to opening the door to the outside. So don't get worked up over that part. Change your flat if the moment and the new place is right but REALLY, I am sure Albie will be the happiest dog anywhere as long as he is with you ❤️ As for the flats, the 5th one was totally my style ! May I ask you which Seoul's area you searched in ? Because the rent price can vary a lot depending on that.
Omg but why I loved apartment number 6 more than everything???? Beautiful!
GUUUUUUUURL 😭 So sad, I didn't see expect u to not find a place 😭😭😭 so sad 😔 But here's to next year! I hope u find an even better place and all 😊❤️
oh lot of love to you, i wish you are ok better now. i totally had the same situation lately.. was searching for a bit bigger place as living in a tiny flat that i love but felt a bit tiny after years and then, finally not found and even not sure to be able to keep affording more rent.. so i finally let the research and decide to stay where i am for this life season.. as finally i love where i am, and i just declutter and sold a bit of stuff to keep feeling fine there :) and realise that finally i love really where i created my nest, so might be not was the right time to move and will see in few months later, but decide to enjoy the season there for now. ojala you willl or already found what you wanted and even if, for sure, you make the best of what you have .. ;)
you are literally my favourite person ever queen
Annabelleee- aw that's so sweet! Thanks for watching gorlfriend!
you talking about the sunlight reminded me of my room in my current apartment, I haven't seen the sunlight inside my room in four years, I forgot the sun can actually enter through the windows
Currently was looking for loft studio spaces for my sister whos moving to korea too! This was so fun! Thank youu i always love ur aptmt vids ♡♡
Ugh apartment hunting is the worst! I spent 2 months looking for the right apartment, i know you'll find something great for you and albie when the time come. If anything maybe a reflector can help with tough lighting situations ✨
I just found your channel and I absolutely love your energy!
ahhhh thank you fellow Nathalie!!!
ah this is so exciting! hope you find a place that suits you guys
I know me tewwww
The staircase in apartment 3 was really weird placed but the apartment did have potential, but apartments 4 and 5 were my favorites.
it definitely did but unfortunately it just ruined my filming backdrop space :(
"you heard that maldito, you heard that?!" 🤣🤣🤣
ahh i deff like the 5th one!!!
dang homie, can't believe you're leaving this iconic apt but looking forward to seeing how you decorate your new place ☺
ahh i finished the video. aw man ;_; sorry you couldn't find a new place. i'm sure an even better apt will be waiting for you when you search again!
@@jmqi8 That's what I keep telling myself so I don't feel tewww bad~ thanks for watching evrem!
Surprisingly, i really like the third one.
Albie is so adorable! 😭❤
He better be after not letting us get that nice apt!! 😤😤😤😤😝😝
Appartment 4 is a dream but my fave is apt 5 🥰🥰🥰🥰 really beautiful
Aw Hope you’ll be blessed with an apartment that meets all your needs and will accept your fur baby too
thank you for the video, i enjoyed it!
the big windows apartment with the sad storage situation is a fave, it's so beautiful. my stuff wouldn't fit in it either tho lmao 😆
The third apartment, fifth apartment and last place 😩😩 I love them 😍😅
#5 is the beeeest 😍😍😍😍 YOU should have it 😍👍🏻👍🏻
Aw girl I’m so sorry! I totally feel for you and that disappointment! Sending you hugs!
Thaank you Crystal! I'm just gonna take it as like I'm just saving my coin for a bigger and better place 🙏🙏🙏
@@YOHOMEGIRL true! The perfect place is waiting for you at that time!
@@solifegoeson5 yes!! hehe thanks so much for watching Crystal! Hope you're having a great day / evening~
girl you are the only youtuber whose ads i don’t skip. imma get you that $1k apartment!!!
That 5th Appartement was my favorite I wish I was going to live there 😭
Good luck, love your videos !!
Thank you Roxana!!
I love this video!!
That lighting was beautiful I’d move in there, I would have to stop buying clothes though or just use upstairs as a closet and study and get a sofa bed downstairs 😛
Randomly found your video, loved the vibe and had to subscribe.
oh my goodness, thank you so much Taylor!!!!
Hi Nathalie, I love your current apartment and the high ceilings 😍. I was wondering what kind of work do you do now after leaving teaching?
I felt the pain with you on that last place hahaha but I'm sure something better will come your way next time you go apartment hunting! just remember to take us with you again lol
This video was such a roller coaster lol Awesome video btw.
Hahahaha yes it was!!thanks for watching Nayab!!
wow i like that window thingy going on at apartment 5
Same same
Subscribed! I love your energy and that you're a fellow latino woman!!
Sin Albie no vale la pena mudarse, ni modo. Ya saldrá algo mejor! 🥳
I totally get that "dreaming" vibe. I love to go on Dabang and just dream for when I go back to SK lol
Yes m'am! Sometimes to make myself feel really crappy I look back at my old city I used to live in; Daejeon.. and check out the places I could get with my current Seoul budget 🥲🤙hahahahaha
@@YOHOMEGIRL I lived in daejeon too when i was there! Ugh I really loved my neighborhood. What part did you stay in? If you dont mind me asking
House hunting in Korea is always a trip 😂 we've always found our place on 직방 or 다방~ like you said, going to see the place is so important. Our current place had really terrible photos on the listing, but the real estate lady insisted we go see it, and it turned out to be way better than any other place we saw. Go figure!🤔🤔🤔
Good luck on the apartment search!! Do you think you could make a video on common scams you see in Korea especially when you go apartment hunting?
