@Adrienne Hill how you doing today good morning plus I love South Korea cute dog president moon shut down the hole South Korea are Corona virus is not playing around
Just FYI the reason that there’s so much storage space in the ‘bedroom’ area is cause traditionally Koreans sleep on the floor so they have a bunch of mats/blankets/bedding/pillows that they use to sleep on and they usually store that in those storage spaces I believe. Not to mention the extra bedding they have for friends/family when they visit.
Ooh, I bet they also hang their bedding on that loft railing, at least sometimes, to give it a good airing. Or if they wash their bedding they can hang it up there to dry as well.
@@drawbootiful8665 yes there is, but it is not related to the season 1 character this time but in the first part it says that"people thought that a part of korea was safe but it wasn't true"
Such a cute apartment, I definitely had some ideas of what I would do for it. For example, that empty space on the balcony you mentioned, you could put down a rug and get some cute throw pillow and it becomes a reading nook. Or you could get a cute bamboo plant stand from GMarket and make yourself an “indoor garden”, greenery is so good for the soul.
For everyone commenting how cheap Korean living is: it's not. Apartments like this usually have deposits upwards of $100,000 and that's what allows for $400, $500 monthly rent.

@@chaeyoungsbestie414you need to remember she lives far from seoul.(it take around 4hours by car from Busan where she lives now). That is why deposit is not expensive. The closer you live to seoul, deposit can be 100k $.(of course, need to pay at once.)
Thank you for sharing, it was very fun & interesting to watch. That $5k is actually a good idea, it stops ppl from really damaging a place & having the rent low is great! I like the hot water thingy too is a good idea to save money
This is totally my dream apartment... I wish the country I live in would even have this apartment style... we sadly dont have any houses with lofts like this :(
As soon as I saw that empty aisle space in the loft I thought of a garden area. I would totally decorate that into a like zen-garden thing. Would definitely bring some positive vibes
Ok the architects have utilized the space so well, I can't get over how perfectly they did that. like the apartment is small but it feels so much bigger, there is so much space and storage like I live with my fam in a normal house and not even we have that much storage. Honestly I want one of these.
That "empty space" at the loft balcony area looks incredibly dreamy thinking about if an artsy introvert had a few books and art stuff for idk meditating or "me" time lmao
When I was in Korea, I loved apartment looking, just to see what other teachers are in living in. Most lived in officetels of various ages. Your place looks more modern. My first place outside Seoul looked like yours. Tall ceiling, loft but kept bet at low level, large window which i hated because it faced south and got the full summer heat and also the neon lights which made my place really bright at night. My second officetel, was smaller in Seoul (more expensive), but great was they kept many public school teachers there so I had about 15 different teachers on various floors to just hang out. My 3rd place I decided to move in with a friend and find an apartment in Itaewon. Those 3 floor old housing. It was old but spacious and cheap. Got 2 big bedrooms, 2 living rooms, 2 bathrooms with tubs, a kitchen with real size fridge and oven. It was about $150 over my 500K won allowance but gladly paid for it. Also had only access to the roof which we had several parties, or just sun tan/hang clothes. Things I missed about Korean apartments are the heated floors and having those smart keyless things. What I didnt like was having entire bathroom wet because the shower/toilet/sink area was all connected.
One of the best (if not…the best) apartments that I’ve seen in South Korea. Well done. That extra space could be a dedicated office/work space or beauty area/vanity set up. Thumbs up for you.
That’s a huge apartment in my opinion. Honestly I would be happy with just the one floor, but I loved the tour and you have a cute dog. Thank you for the video.
Buy something to filter your sink water, a lot a korean homes have it, they either don't drink water from the sink and buy water bottles or they filter it, love your videos 😘
I've always loved Korean apartments and lofts because of how minimally-spacious it is and omg.. your place is my dreammmmmmmmmmmm apartmenttttttttt. I wish there were korean inspired apartments in where I live but there arent any so )):
that empty space that looks over the downstairs of the apartment would make such a cute reading/relaxing nook area, like a lil shelf unit full of books/magazines would be so stunning
"Wasted space" No no no, it's amazing how much space there is in this apartment. You can use the upstairs space as storage. You can create a big pantry area in that space on the first floor. I WISH I had so much space. Those railings are definitely not up to U.S. code... so dangerous. You'd never be able to get away with that here.
I've said this somewhere else in the comments, but the person living there may only make 650 dollars. If I would buy a apartment like that where I live, I would have to pay twice as much, but I would also make twice as much. The price may be a little, but they may make a little.
freezers in europe are the same we call the freezers in the usa “american freezers” but people don’t have them most of the time they are too large for the house😂
Yess ahah My aunt and my grandma have one each and everytime we go there we basically act like they're super rich and modern and all ahah You don't see them often, they just take soo much place
i am always like really shocked in these videos at how small the fridge and freezers are. Like i have my standard american fridge as i am an american in america and chest freezer and still i am like damn i could use a drink fridge to keep my soda and water cool.
• w a t e r • Oh my, how big are homes in Europe(I might need to go watch videos)? In my house (I live in the US) my fridge is a little taller than me and it’s double doors
@@truefalse934 europe is very densely populated and in most places there's either a small supermarket or a local fresh produce market pretty close somewhere or max. 5min walking distance in the bigger cities. i get my groceries almost every day, a big fridge or freezer usually only leads to things getting rotten as people forget about them (at least here in austria, maybe it's different in the US). tho even when growing up we had a classic european fridge/freezer and we would go shopping only once a week and still it was more than enough space and still stuff would get rotten cause nobody ate it. also sodas are not really a thing here for most people and drinking cold drinks at home is also not a thing, no need to put tap water in the fridge lol.
I love the light and pinkish colours in your interior, it looks like there’s lots of light and air to breath in the apartment! Looks super cute and stylish! Btw hey, I’m your new subscriber 👋
I really love what you've done with your place! I can tell we have the same style. Almost minimalist and I'm not a fan of big bulky & many furniture as well. The color palette you chose is soothing to the eyes. For the loft extension, I would put some carpet and a bunch of throw pillows and I'd probably make it like a reading or zone-out area. LOL.
The down stairs open space could be a cozy reading space. You could get a fluffy rug, then get a lot of throw pillows omg you have the perfect apt to creat whatever you want. You could use the upstairs open space as a home office, maybe even put down a yoga mat omg Girl take advantage of that space.
me, an Asian coming to Canada: "DUh heCc!! They don't wet their whole BATHROooMM?!?!?" ..........honestly western bathroom are so hard and time consuming to clean, like you said, its easier to clean the bathroom because for me I just take the shower or bidet and wet the whole bathroom, add bathroom soap, brush it then rinse...EASy~~
Wouldn't a wet bath get all the medicine cabinets wet with water from that shower? That means all your products get damaged from the temperature change and the moisture.
I have been to South Korea a few times and for me the problem wasn't mold from humidity, it was that every single thing and my clothes (I had to take the change of clothes to the bathroom to put them on after showering and as I lived in coed space and couldn't leave the bathroom wraped only in towel towel) were wet.
Aww Adrienne I remember when you first got your apartment and there was literally nothing and now look at you decorating it and making it feel like home, I love it !! 💗💗
Love this video and how thorough you are! We’re all nosy as hell but you managed to answer almost all of our questions whilst still keeping your private information to yourself!
I love your apartment! Watching this just makes me imagine alot of things i can put around those empty huge spaces.. i just wish someday i can get a same place/layout like this
I would use that space opposite the bathroom as a storage area. Put in some shelving and store your luggage and stuff like that, as well as have space to dry clothes. This would allow you to properly store your out of season clothes upstairs. The extra space in the loft you could put a low sofa and a lap desk, make that a second office space. Thee is so much potential in this location.
honestly, I actually enjoy an apartment tour, especially Korean one [and its been years for me] because I wish I could live there someday in the future, but ...after years, I think its the 1st time I found this big, giant and idk, its rare sight !! I think the only minus part was the bathroom, you such a lucky girl to find this place!
Ahhhhhh...the furnished vlog. Perfect. I love space and less furniture. Same with the walls; mine would have art by Britto. Beautiful. Thanks for showing us this.
"dogs have whiskers that prevent them from doing that" me thinking about my Shiba: ".... yeah she probably would still try to jump onto the couch from upstairs..." Your apartment is beautiful btw!
This is exactly the kind of apartment that I wanted to get. My school refused to do the housing allowance. I am not sure if I will stay next year if they don't let me get my own apartment.
I have some suggestions for your "wasted space". You could put some rugs or something cozy then maybe string some fairy lights, add some pictures, kind of like a memory wall. That would be a great hideout, personal cozy space to chill.
I'm honestly having so much fun with the massive amount of overlap I can find with Scandinavian and South Korean interior design, it's really similar from what I've seen so far.
I love the aesthetic of your apartment so much!! Also if you haven't watched it already, I definitely recommend watching Crash Landing On You on Netflix whenever you have free time it's sooo good im absolutely hooked
An apartment like this in Seoul would be more expensive ㅠㅠ it is hard to find a good place that is clean, new, and low deposit that allows your dog to come along ㅠㅠ
I love this!! I'd love to live in Korea. I just love their culture and way of life. Your apartment is stunning!! Just so simple, but practical. I feel like they have something for everything and it just makes life easier!
Lol it is.... its just that in the US or Asian living in Canada etc. They just don't enforce it on others cause they understand other people don't know about it lol but if youre Asian. You better take off them shoes before you step into the house!
Wow, $500/month! I love that the frig & closets were all built neatly into the walls. As a precaution, I would put guard railing for the top floor to prevent potentially falling through due to accidental slips/trips or being dizzy/fainted/disoriented. Also, might want to cut out the portion about where you put your important documents for safe privacy reason.
It's so cute!!! So much space for a Korean apartment. I want to pursue teaching in Korea, but my biggest set back is the stress of moving my pets. What did you have to go through to get Cleo there?? SHE'S SO CUTE!!❤❤
Nice apartment!! That empty space on the second floor, you can use it as your office. Or the empty space downstairs could be use for office too. Well, congratulations enjoy it.
I was thinking office space, too! and then she can create an actual dining area if people do come over. from the looks of it though it seems she's totally by herself?
It's a beautiful apartment! I'm glad you found it and you're content. It's none of my business but you don't have a great eye for room design...The place would've looked AMAZING if you had put more effort into it. I thought of about 7 different designs that would look out of this world. Furniture, color combinations, and decoration are really important to me
If you can find one, a sofa table would possibly be a good fit under your tv and provide additional space. usually they are only about 8 inches deep and can be as wide as you like and have a little shelf at the bottom too.
Analise Ventura try and find a friend that will move with you! me and my bestfriend are moving to korea together which will make paying rent, and anything else much easier as we’ll split the costs and we’ll both have jobs. you’ll also have much more fun as you can go to places with them!
I don’t have any friends that have any interest in Korea though ☹️☹️☹️ but I’m starting high school next year so maybe I will make new friends that have the same interests as me 😊 thanks for the advice though!!
Analise Ventura of course! and even if you do end up going alone, you can always meet people there, and still have just as much fun. i hope you find someone who will go with you though!
actually a typical Korean bathroom has a sink that functions as your shower, you're very lucky to have a separate shower (even if everythign gets wet whenever you shower xD)! I lived in Seoul so I'm actually super jealous of how much space/storage/comfort you got for such a good price, I paid a similar amount (actually 100,000 won more but I lived with my then-boyfriend at the time) and got a one room with a slighly bigger than average kitchen xDDD so it is actually very fun to see the difference between Seoul and Busan!
I was so concerned when I saw the water bowl upstairs and that the rails had no glass between them. I’m so happy that nothings happened to her and that she’s fine
Bookcases, that is what you should put in that empty area in the loft. Short enough to be your waist height. Or a bit higher. And run plants along the bookcases. (There are plants that can be severly neglected. If you have never tried your hand at plants yet.) Along with mementos. All your School supplies can go on the shelves. Along with your books that you read for pleasure. Games ect. That whole wall including your bed area. Should be painted another color. Or wallpaper that can be removed. If you are not allowed to paint. You can even have a area painted behind your bed. That depicts something you like. Florals ect... And paint for the couch wall as well. In the same color. Get little things to match the paint color. Pillows, a long vase with feathery stalks, to add height can go in a corner. Just to throw that color around your house. Some sort of pink maybe to compliment the couch color. Would work. And scatter plants around the house. After you are more comfortable with growing them. Good luck. Your place is beautiful.
Absolutely love your apartment. So happy you found this beauty and made it your own. I hope you are doing ok with the Coronavirus issues in Korea. Wishing you and Cleo well as always. ❤
your apartment is BEAUTIFUL, and i absolutely love loft setups, and my preferred apartment layout. living in beijing, i always went after the loft apartments.
you can actually probably move your bed to the empty space on the second floor and then put the rug infant of it, and use the storage places on the second floor to put hang your clothes. and the empty area on the first floor you can use that to store even more stuff there. i'm just suggesting you some ideas :). if you move a lot in your sleep and scared to fall down you can cover the holes with some carton. and you can get a good view of your huge window from the second floor. hope this helps you :). love your videos btw :)))
If you add the 5K deposit and 500/monthly, it comes out to about 916~ monthly, which is pretty reasonable. I really like the option for the upfront deposit tho. Gives a certain peace of mind knowing you only will pay 500/month as opposed to over 900/month. Kinda like a car payment, to lower monthly costs. I wish apartments did this in the US. Edit: whoa just found out the deposit is refundable 😭 that’s amazing

@@truefalse934 europe is very densely populated and in most places there's either a small supermarket or a local fresh produce market pretty close somewhere or max. 5min walking distance in the bigger cities. i get my groceries almost every day, a big fridge or freezer usually only leads to things getting rotten as people forget about them (at least here in austria, maybe it's different in the US). tho even when growing up we had a classic european fridge/freezer and we would go shopping only once a week and still it was more than enough space and still stuff would get rotten cause nobody ate it. also sodas are not really a thing here for most people and drinking cold drinks at home is also not a thing, no need to put tap water in the fridge lol.
I love the light and pinkish colours in your interior, it looks like there’s lots of light and air to breath in the apartment! Looks super cute and stylish! Btw hey, I’m your new subscriber 👋
welcome to the fam!🥰
I really love what you've done with your place! I can tell we have the same style. Almost minimalist and I'm not a fan of big bulky & many furniture as well. The color palette you chose is soothing to the eyes. For the loft extension, I would put some carpet and a bunch of throw pillows and I'd probably make it like a reading or zone-out area. LOL.
The interior decorator in me was making my own preference changes throughout
the entire video 😅
So much space... so many possibilities 👀
Something like this in NYC could never...
I really like your apartment!!! it looks large, clean and I really love the high ceiling things!!
thank you!!
The down stairs open space could be a cozy reading space. You could get a fluffy rug, then get a lot of throw pillows omg you have the perfect apt to creat whatever you want. You could use the upstairs open space as a home office, maybe even put down a yoga mat omg Girl take advantage of that space.
you literally have my dream apartment 🥺
me, an Asian coming to Canada: "DUh heCc!! They don't wet their whole BATHROooMM?!?!?" ..........honestly western bathroom are so hard and time consuming to clean, like you said, its easier to clean the bathroom because for me I just take the shower or bidet and wet the whole bathroom, add bathroom soap, brush it then rinse...EASy~~
I recently moved from a wet bath to a closed shower (in Korea) and hate it. I know my family will love it when they visit, but I dread cleaning it.
I've never even used one, but I NEED ONE
Wouldn't a wet bath get all the medicine cabinets wet with water from that shower? That means all your products get damaged from the temperature change and the moisture.
I prefer a normal bathroom than a wet bathroom because then there will be a lot of humidity when taking a shower .
I have been to South Korea a few times and for me the problem wasn't mold from humidity, it was that every single thing and my clothes (I had to take the change of clothes to the bathroom to put them on after showering and as I lived in coed space and couldn't leave the bathroom wraped only in towel towel) were wet.
Do not add decorations if not needed. I love the minimalist vibe of your apartment. 😁
Aww Adrienne I remember when you first got your apartment and there was literally nothing and now look at you decorating it and making it feel like home, I love it !! 💗💗
Thank you for taking us on a tour of your home. I hope you & Chloe are enjoying being together in South Korea. Stay healthy & safe.
That is so gorgeous, I'm such a huge fan of the open concept layout and the stairs+loft HAVE to be my favorite part 😻
Love this video and how thorough you are! We’re all nosy as hell but you managed to answer almost all of our questions whilst still keeping your private information to yourself!
hehe glad you enjoyed 💕💕
I love your apartment! Watching this just makes me imagine alot of things i can put around those empty huge spaces.. i just wish someday i can get a same place/layout like this
A lot of places I stayed in Mexico had "wet room" style bathrooms as well and I LOVED it! I hate cleaning bathroom floors,and that made it way easier.
I would use that space opposite the bathroom as a storage area. Put in some shelving and store your luggage and stuff like that, as well as have space to dry clothes. This would allow you to properly store your out of season clothes upstairs. The extra space in the loft you could put a low sofa and a lap desk, make that a second office space. Thee is so much potential in this location.
honestly, I actually enjoy an apartment tour, especially Korean one [and its been years for me] because I wish I could live there someday in the future, but ...after years, I think its the 1st time I found this big, giant and idk, its rare sight !! I think the only minus part was the bathroom, you such a lucky girl to find this place!
Seoul never could with $500 with that high ceiling one and a half story and spacious apartment, but maybe $1000~1200.
Meanwhile where I live a place like that, even in a bad/unsafe area, would easily be 1.1k-1.6k.
You have such a beautiful apartment. I like how you have it set up. I wish you the best, God bless you !
Me and my sister really want a house like this and decided when we are older that we will get one like yours ,style is amazing!❤️
Ahhhhhh...the furnished vlog. Perfect. I love space and less furniture. Same with the walls; mine would have art by Britto. Beautiful. Thanks for showing us this.
Damn! I feel like everything is reasonably priced in Korea. Your apartment is very modern and pretty.
"dogs have whiskers that prevent them from doing that"
me thinking about my Shiba: ".... yeah she probably would still try to jump onto the couch from upstairs..."
Your apartment is beautiful btw!
This is exactly the kind of apartment that I wanted to get. My school refused to do the housing allowance. I am not sure if I will stay next year if they don't let me get my own apartment.
never say never when it comes to your dog!!!! Can,t stress that enough. Love the apartment!!!
I have some suggestions for your "wasted space". You could put some rugs or something cozy then maybe string some fairy lights, add some pictures, kind of like a memory wall. That would be a great hideout, personal cozy space to chill.
I'm honestly having so much fun with the massive amount of overlap I can find with Scandinavian and South Korean interior design, it's really similar from what I've seen so far.
I love the aesthetic of your apartment so much!! Also if you haven't watched it already, I definitely recommend watching Crash Landing On You on Netflix whenever you have free time it's sooo good im absolutely hooked
An apartment like this in Seoul would be more expensive ㅠㅠ it is hard to find a good place that is clean, new, and low deposit that allows your dog to come along ㅠㅠ
OKAY BUT UR DOG....is so precious ughhhh she was like mom why u talking to urself....wut u doing..she is soo 🥺
I love this!! I'd love to live in Korea. I just love their culture and way of life. Your apartment is stunning!! Just so simple, but practical. I feel like they have something for everything and it just makes life easier!
Two hanging wall lamps would be really pretty then one rectangular peace of wall art in between it.
omg it looks like the apartment from hello my twenties where the dude held the girl hostage
im glad im not the only one who thought this lol
"In Korean's home you have to take your shoes off" LOL thats *EVERY* Asian culture😂😂😂
In PHILIPPINES too
@@kathrynjhaypalomo8183 Thats why I said *EVERY ASIAN CULTURE* , the Philippines is included too if you didnt know lol
@@AznBaabe lol wdc
@@kathrynjhaypalomo8183 lol👍
Lol it is.... its just that in the US or Asian living in Canada etc. They just don't enforce it on others cause they understand other people don't know about it lol but if youre Asian. You better take off them shoes before you step into the house!
OMG I love your apartment. So comfy, lovely and cute. Love the loft concept and the pink sofa 😍💖
Wow, $500/month! I love that the frig & closets were all built neatly into the walls. As a precaution, I would put guard railing for the top floor to prevent potentially falling through due to accidental slips/trips or being
dizzy/fainted/disoriented. Also, might want to cut out the portion about where you put your important documents for safe privacy reason.
This place is HUGE compared to so many apartments in America. I've literally never lived in a rental this big in my life T^T
It's so cute!!! So much space for a Korean apartment. I want to pursue teaching in Korea, but my biggest set back is the stress of moving my pets. What did you have to go through to get Cleo there?? SHE'S SO CUTE!!❤❤
Nice apartment!! That empty space on the second floor, you can use it as your office. Or the empty space downstairs could be use for office too. Well, congratulations enjoy it.
I was thinking office space, too! and then she can create an actual dining area if people do come over. from the looks of it though it seems she's totally by herself?
It's a beautiful apartment! I'm glad you found it and you're content. It's none of my business but you don't have a great eye for room design...The place would've looked AMAZING if you had put more effort into it. I thought of about 7 different designs that would look out of this world. Furniture, color combinations, and decoration are really important to me
If you can find one, a sofa table would possibly be a good fit under your tv and provide additional space. usually they are only about 8 inches deep and can be as wide as you like and have a little shelf at the bottom too.
Omg I wanna move to Korea when I’m older sooooo bad!!!! 😣😣😣 But all my family is in America so I would be so lonely 😭
Analise Ventura try and find a friend that will move with you! me and my bestfriend are moving to korea together which will make paying rent, and anything else much easier as we’ll split the costs and we’ll both have jobs. you’ll also have much more fun as you can go to places with them!
I don’t have any friends that have any interest in Korea though ☹️☹️☹️ but I’m starting high school next year so maybe I will make new friends that have the same interests as me 😊 thanks for the advice though!!
Analise Ventura of course! and even if you do end up going alone, you can always meet people there, and still have just as much fun. i hope you find someone who will go with you though!
Analise Ventura omg same? Wanna become friends? Lol
Me too I told my mom that I wanted to move to Korea but I'll be lonely. Hope we'll meet if it happens
Notification fam ❤️
Thanks for the tour, everything looks amazing!
actually a typical Korean bathroom has a sink that functions as your shower, you're very lucky to have a separate shower (even if everythign gets wet whenever you shower xD)! I lived in Seoul so I'm actually super jealous of how much space/storage/comfort you got for such a good price, I paid a similar amount (actually 100,000 won more but I lived with my then-boyfriend at the time) and got a one room with a slighly bigger than average kitchen xDDD so it is actually very fun to see the difference between Seoul and Busan!
I was so concerned when I saw the water bowl upstairs and that the rails had no glass between them. I’m so happy that nothings happened to her and that she’s fine
Bookcases, that is what you should put in that empty area in the loft. Short enough to be your waist height. Or a bit higher. And run plants along the bookcases. (There are plants that can be severly neglected. If you have never tried your hand at plants yet.) Along with mementos. All your School supplies can go on the shelves. Along with your books that you read for pleasure. Games ect. That whole wall including your bed area. Should be painted another color. Or wallpaper that can be removed. If you are not allowed to paint. You can even have a area painted behind your bed. That depicts something you like. Florals ect... And paint for the couch wall as well. In the same color. Get little things to match the paint color. Pillows, a long vase with feathery stalks, to add height can go in a corner. Just to throw that color around your house. Some sort of pink maybe to compliment the couch color. Would work. And scatter plants around the house. After you are more comfortable with growing them. Good luck. Your place is beautiful.
As soon as she said Busan I thought of the movie “Train to Busan” 😭😭😂
I wish apartments in Charlotte could be like this. 😭😭 Even one bedroom apartment cost $1,300+. Too costly for a college student.
Boohoo... a one bedroom apartment in the bay area (california) costs around $2400
Absolutely love your apartment. So happy you found this beauty and made it your own. I hope you are doing ok with the Coronavirus issues in Korea. Wishing you and Cleo well as always. ❤
thank you!! ❤
I LOVE this apartment!! Seriously it's so cute and clean!
your apartment is BEAUTIFUL, and i absolutely love loft setups, and my preferred apartment layout. living in beijing, i always went after the loft apartments.
omg...i rented an apartment in this apartment building when i travelled to seoul
''makes me feel like im living in a bigger space.'' me: her upstairs is bigger than my house
Me: so tiny. My kitchen is as big as her living room....and im getting one bigger.
Your place is so cute and modern! Love it
you can actually probably move your bed to the empty space on the second floor and then put the rug infant of it, and use the storage places on the second floor to put hang your clothes. and the empty area on the first floor you can use that to store even more stuff there. i'm just suggesting you some ideas :). if you move a lot in your sleep and scared to fall down you can cover the holes with some carton. and you can get a good view of your huge window from the second floor. hope this helps you :). love your videos btw :)))
If you add the 5K deposit and 500/monthly, it comes out to about 916~ monthly, which is pretty reasonable. I really like the option for the upfront deposit tho. Gives a certain peace of mind knowing you only will pay 500/month as opposed to over 900/month. Kinda like a car payment, to lower monthly costs. I wish apartments did this in the US. Edit: whoa just found out the deposit is refundable 😭 that’s amazing
