What are housing options in Seoul near 종로 for 3.5 months? I prefer not to live in a 고시원 if I can help it. Any advice or where to look? Thanks.

goshiwon=고시원 so looks like he has thought about it.

http://nearsubway.com if it is in your budget he could probably help.
Some motels let you do month by month.
If you speak a little Korean you can just ask around all the 부동산s for places that do 단기임대

If no one has already suggested it perhaps you could try a goshiwon.

Your best bet is a goshiwon.

Sometimes on Craigslist you can find a short term sublease.

It might not work out perfectly to 3.5 months though, so you might have to spend some time at a hostel, guesthouse, or that other place that I won't mention in since the joke has gotten old.
