refuse2sink 2,233 Posted July 9, 2019 Share Posted July 9, 2019 @Sejabin I went to Seoul for a few days in May-girls outing without husbands and it was a Malaysian long weekend. Life there is pretty miserable. Small tiny houses or flats in Seoul are like US$1 million. From 13 years old, they go to school and then tuition till 12am ! Uni is of course ultra competitive. No wonder suicide rates there are one of the highest. It's a pressure cooker and they are always angry inside. I guess that's why K dramas are a good escape for them. 506 5 Link to post Share on other sites

nateko 6,158 Posted July 9, 2019 Share Posted July 9, 2019 I've read that the minimum wage in SK in 2018 was only ~1400 USD. Here's a quote - In 2018, the national minimum wage in South Korea remained fixed at 1,229.9 € per month. I'd say that it is really a minimum to live there. I've been to SK in May and the prices for food (especially if you want to have a healthy diet) are pretty high plus everyone is basically renting apartments, so the rent for a shabby basement apartment might be around 500 USD and if you want something better then there really is no roof when it comes to rent. 1500 USD is really low. 3000 USD was actually the average salary in 2017 according to National Tax statistics. 508 1 1 Link to post Share on other sites

OMG, what if I became an adrenaline junkie now @triplem Yea, when I was in SK fruits, veggies let alone berries all felt like luxury items there. But I found eating out to be quite ok in terms of prices. Besides I was so shocked that they serve literally huge portions. Those were the biggest portions of food I've ever eaten and that was for one person. Could barely eat anything after that for 2 days. 508 3 Link to post Share on other sites
cenching 44,969 Posted July 9, 2019 Share Posted July 9, 2019 OMG!! SK is really expensive (but Japan is more expensive though)....Their food prices are outrageous especially for us who came from a country where veggies and local fruits are dirt cheap....Housing is another thing. With a salary of $3000/month some of us can have a comfortable life outside SK but in SK is only a standard life (In Indonesian we called it 7P, Pergi Pagi Pulang Petang Penghasilan Pas-pasan). Plus their school life and rat race is no joke. No wonder they have lots of anger inside, it's accumulating since they were in Kindergarten..... +2 3 1 Link to post Share on other sites
