Hey all,

I'm moving to HBC/Itaewon or something... the internet connection is 38,000 in the apartment I'll be moving into. It seems pretty steep. Does anyone know if I can do better (cheaper) for a simple, English-speaking process to get the internet installed?

Thanks.

38k a month is steep?

Seems reasonable to me. Then again Im not on a cupcake salary and have a DREAM JOB here in Korea.

I'm honored that you replied. I've been admiring your work for weeks now.

I think I used to pay 25,000W or something. Is it true that 38,000 is more the norm?

Pretty normal for a 100-1000mbps connection.

Pretty steep for a 5-10mbps cable connection.

You can get a better deal if you get a longer contract. I'm on a 3 year contract at about 26K a month, but there are steep-ish cancellation fees.
