I just need wireless in the house to update it before I go out for the day. Nothing fancy. Solution needs to be under W20,000 otherwise I'll just keep standing out in front of my neighbour's house for a few minutes every morning and ganking their signal.

Do you have internet at your house? You might want to invest in a wireless router. They generally have ports as well so if your computer doesn't have wireless, you can still get online. A top of the line wireless router in the U.S. is $60, but you can probably find cheaper ones in Korea.

Yup... wifi router. Koreas call it a "moo-sun rou-tah".

Here's a good cheap one:

You can order off of that site and use English. Or you can go buy it in Yongsan or Technomart at Ganbyeon station on the green line. I'd had that model, and had OK luck with it. It might not be in English, so ask.

Another one you can try, which might have an English option, is by Belkin:
