Cost of Living in Seoul

Seoul is so cheap and it's not bad to leave.

If you make 130,000,000 KRW after paying tax, yes it's super nice. But if you make 130,000,000 KRW and didn't pay the tax yet, I doubt you can enjoy the Korea fully. You can still, but not too much.

Is this true? I am a Tunisian person and I was shocked by the difference between the two currencies. Is 5,663,058.7₩ really 12,747 dinars? Is it true? if it's true i will be a millionere in korea i hope someone answer me

I didn't look at it in detail, but it's okay that Volkswagen is the model car compared Seoul to Tokyo, but why are you comparing Toyota... Buying a car from your own country is the cheapest locally, so buying a Hyundai in Seoul would be cheaper than buying a Toyota in Tokyo. ...There appears to be a statistical error.
And in Korea, if you change from a bus to a subway, the next fare is free. It would be unreasonable to expect such details to be reflected.

It's something I always feel, but there are still a lot of people who play it as a price prank. The system has changed now, so I don't put it into the statistics randomly, but most of them are high-priced items that I still don't see around. There are basically 30 sets of eggs distributed in Korea. 30 are usually W6,000, and the mart I go to often always weighs W5,700 ($4.2) over 1.8 kg of 30. Antibiotic-free or high grade eggs are over $6. Expensive grade is not a normal price. 12 eggs (only 10, 15, and 30 packages exist to be exact) at $3.5 is just an expensive grade egg. There are so many ridiculously expensive items such as beer prices and bottled water prices.

"A single person estimated monthly costs are 1,432,775.68₩ without rent."

This is just nonsense. There is no way, it costs this much to live in Seoul. A rather reasonable number would be around 800,000 to 1,000,000KRW

Apartment prices in Seoul for the past four years
It went up very high
When purchasing an apartment in Seoul, the price per m² is about 40,000 dollars, and the center of Gangnam-gu is about 65,000 dollars per m²

I am a upper middle class in Seoul. And compare to Berlin and Sydney cost of living here is much higher especially fresh fruits and meat products. But it is quite safe city with low crime rate. And services are very fast. Free wifi is available virtually everywhere. If you leave a MacBook on a table in a Cafe nobody touches it. Women can stroll around safely midnight. In a nutshell it is convenient city if you have enough budget.

Say goodbye to fruits and vegetables and eggs then you are good to go.

Totally accurate. Been living in Gangnam for 4 years. Rent is dependent on your key money.

Yes Seoul is more expensive than other countries but you get what you pay for. Seoul is a very nice and developed city full of progression,a modern city.If you're looking for cities on a budget try Cambodia, Vietnam, or Bangkok.But none of those cities can compare with Seoul's modern and efficient transportation systems and only Japan comes close.

Everything is quite correct but apartment price.
It is increased a lot for last a year
