I find it unreasonable to for a young man and woman with a small baby to be yelling an argument and slamming doors at 4:45 many mornings with a baby crying it's head off. This almost daily disturbance of my immediate neighbors is waking everyone up who in turn also yell and slam doors as they make their way out the door for work at various times such as 5:50, 6:00 and 6:30. I've got ear plugs, but it's just so much of a disturbance rattling my brain. I am tired of not getting my sleep where I feel tired, grumpy, and sluggish. It makes me want to go to bed at 7pm which I do many nights. I told my school today I need to move, but they just said, "Oh, that's too bad." Anything they bring up to me in the future? Well you guessed it. "Oh, that's too bad." And then smile and nod.

Scream out your window 야! 입닥쳐! It means: "Hey! Shutup!" 입다물어줄래요. More polite version - be quite. If that doesn't work. Call 119. If your school really ticks you off and you don't plan on renewing, call your school and ask them to call the police for you at 4 am. Bet they stop saying: "Too bad" soon enough. Depends on how angry you are. But try not to do that unless you're really desperate.

I was stuck in a building with idiot foriegners who would make racket until 2 or 3 am. I had to get up at 6:30 am. I was always tired. I eventually changed education offices because they didn't seem to want to do much about my complaints. Maybe you should ask your school for a letter of release.

My neighbor is quite loud. He's the only offender in my building.
He played TV really loudly late at night and had drunken chats with his friends at 6am once or twice a week.

He sitill kinda does these things but turned the TV down after I complained to him several times. He flat out refused to change anything at first . Presumably becuase he didn't believe that his TV was so loud. After the 4th time complaining to him, he finally came in my room and listened to the TV volume from my room. He was shocked that it was so loud. He apologized and i haven't had a problem with the TV since, although his loud drunken conversations of which I can hear eveyr word are still a problem sometimes. But I just suck that up

Summer is coming, and with summer, a pack of losers that hang out on the 1st floor of my building. You see, the 1st floor is a small convenience store whose owner happens to be the landlord's brother, so complaining won't do a thing.

Loserboy and his friends sit on the street all day at plastic picnic tables, smoking, drinking, chatting, and basically wasting their pathetic ajosshi lives away. I was glad for the winter last year. I don't think I've ever been glad for the winter.

Is there such a thing? Probably if I got something much more expensive. When I seen the small size of my studio, I assumed it was a quiet sleeping room house for single working people, but I was dead wrong. It's a sleeping room for families. Yes, young families who are obviously having their arguments over money and time constraints. It's hard for them.

Next time I'm woken, I might just get the heck up and open the door, and say "anio. NO. Bad. Shame on you."

Close the door between your kitchen and the room where you sleep. Trust me, you will hear nothing. Unless your ears are much more sensitive than mine.
