I was told that CDI has six main branches in Seoul and one in Bundang. Which main branch is the most desirable location in terms of working and living?
Cheongdam
Daechi
Songpa
Mokdong
Joongae

Cheongdam and Daechi are two of the wealthiest areas of Seoul.
Depends on how you wanna live. |

How do I want to live? Hmm... I want to be comfortable but live frugally because I want to save money. That is, I want to be able to eat what I want, live in a decent apartment in a nice neighborhood, but I won't be going out every night or even every weekend. I won't be doing a lot of shopping or traveling either - no weekend trips abroad during my first year here. |

Also, if I'm placed at a hagwon in the Gangnam area, it doesn't mean that I have to live there...as long as I'm close to a subway station, I think I'll be fine. I don't mind commuting. I'm assuming that the cost of living in Gangnam is somewhat higher than in other areas such as Mokdong or Junggye...do you get a little for a lot in Gangnam compared to other areas? |

Nah, they asked which branches I preferred out of the six above, but I don't know if they'll take my preferences into consideration. |

No, I changed my mind. Pyongchon is the best area. |
