Title says it sll really. I live in Changwon and am having a hard time finding a place to stay. I enlisted the help of some korean friends bur am being quoted extremely high rates... 10,000,000 key money, 700,000 rent.

Anyway does anyone have any ideas on how I might go about finding a plce to stay short term (4-6 months)?

thanks

It really depends on the area. Tell your Korean friends to look elsewhere for you. You can find places half what you were quoted. Look near universities and ask for a studio.

It also depends on your budget, if you have no key money you might have to look for a goshiwon or similar. Also subletting is another possibility.
Itaewon and the surrounding area can be a little cheaper.
