How do waygookins in Korea make their bed? if in fact people do as opposed to sleeping on a traditional mat on the floor. I can't find bed sheets for the life of me, except at costco which cost 150$. I'm beginning to be open to other options since my bed sheets hardly fit & are splitting down the seams. Also, I haven't washed them in over a month.

I appreciate any imput you guys have. thanks.

Yeah, even when they sleep on beds, Koreans don't use bedsheets, they use neon-colored quilts with garish floral designs on them. I did manage to find some plain white sheets and pillow covers on the first floor of the Wangsimni Emart a few months back, and they were expensive, but they were definitely cheaper than $150.

You can also find sheets on Gmarket. If you don't know about that site yet, it's a lifesaver, they sell EVERYTHING online.

Just use a mattress cover which is standard along with "neon-colored quilts with garish floral designs." Works for me. You can find this (in order of cheapness) on the internet, at a market and also in stores which exclusively sell them.

Most quilts you can just throw in the washer, but they do take time to dry.
