I'm curious because so far my methods are not so effective.

Its tough to hang them in a shoebox apartment with no "laundry balcony zone" or whatever u might call it

Thumb tacks. Hang them shits up on the walls. That's what I do. Gets them dry and super smooth, no wrinkles.

Get a dryer on Gmarket. Only 400,000. They DO exist, despite what your co-workers tell you.

Give your blankets and bed sheets to a laundry.
Lucky for me one of my students comes from a laundry.
Time to ask the question: "What does your father do?"

-Put clip hangers (those for pants and skirts) on both sides of a door. Just simply turn the hook on it 90 degrees and place them on the top of the door
-Hang your large items on the door equipped with hangers.
-Turn them once or twice allowing all sides to dry.
-Leave the door halfway open (keep it away from the walls to allow better airflow around it)
-Of course you need a bedroom or whatever door inside of the apartment for this. Your entrance door shell not be used Wink

You could get some of those adhesive wall hanger things. Like 2,000 won at any shop or dollar store. Put a few of them up on your cement wall in a row, and hang the sheet thusly? I don't know if that would work though.

Your wall is really concrete all the way up? There's no wooden moulding where the wall meets the ceiling? Sounds very soundproof and fortified.

Take them to a laundry. It's dirt cheap and they come back all folded and smelling nice.

Get a large drying rack, hang them over each side, and blow a fan on it.

Or get a space heater and do the same thing?

My high tech solution is the drying rack + fan.
