My girlfriend and I have lived in the same officetel for 8 months now. Our utilities have always been around about 175,000-200k.

The last two months we've noticed a new fee on our utility bill. It's labeled: "낙방사용료". Each time, the fee is around 150k to 175k. Navar/Google quote it as "Proctor Fee" or "Technology Fee". Anyone care to translate it better?

Or am I just an idiot and misunderstanding it as a Gas Fee?

~cheers

Yeah, I noticed that too Smile Dairy Emission Fees was my favorite. I still have no clue what the heck this is.

Nevermind, my friend explained it: 난방 사용료. Heating Bill!
