 |
|
Does Korea have laundry mats?
I have only seen what appears to be some dry cleaning places.
I hate not having a dryer and having to air dry my clothes. I dont have enough room and it is just annoying as hell.
I got enough clothes that I could get by with washing once every 2 weeks.
So id be more than willing to pay. |

There are some out there.
You have better chances in university - oneroom areas. Elsewhere it's not a common thing. |

| i get my laundry done in laundrymats. i drop off my laundry and i get it a day later. for those who are busy and have better things to do with their time it's a great service. it's quick and convenient. |

How much does it cost you? and how much washed? |

| Sorry, this is driving me crazy. It's LAUNDROMAT. I'm usually very passive when it comes to grammar and spelling on Dave's, but this one and "ATM machine" drive me up the wall. |

it depends. i take a huge bag in about once every two weeks composed of typical laundry plus bedding and large western-style towels. i'd say it'd be around 8-10 typical small korean washing machine loads. they wash, dry, match socks and fold all of it and i get it a day later. normally runs me around 24 bucks or so. i also get probably around 10 shirts or so dry cleaned as well. it all normally runs me around 32.
seoulsucker, i will now never use the word "laundrymat" again.  |

Im definitely with you on the Laundromat thing, but what's wrong with ATM machine? I say it all the time. You just want to call it ATM without the "machine" part? I don't get it. |

ATM= automatic teller machine
Saying machine is redundant. |
