Not necessarily, depends on which area of it. It can be expensive, but it's not even the most expensive area to own property on in Seoul.

It's the Beverly Hills of Korea. From what I've read.
her name is arisa.
Ok, I'm listening.

Faf being persecuted for doing gods work. This must be how it feels to be christian in Obamas America.
Araaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa.
As for The SeeYa, I heard the song already. Never noticed there was a pretty member though. It's just another CCM group, I'll listen to the good music and not give a single shit about the group itself.
So good.

It goes strong for 2-3 episodes then they don't mention Monday Couple for 2-3 episodes. No coincidence that the best episodes involve the Monday Couple connection.
Wouldn't be able to say off the top of my head. All I know if I've got friends who lived/live in Gangnam at pretty affordable rates and then others who have houses that are worth ridiculous amounts. You'd be better off talking to real estate agents about specific areas or researching on Naver.
Anything bellow Han River is usually expensive. But I don't think you have "rich" areas with only mansions and this kinda of stuff, its usually mixed, from my experience. You have a "few group of streets" with expensive houses, 2/3 floors etc, but just around the corner you have a "regular" area with regular houses, etc.
Take a look at Google Street View for details.
Are you look for a place to stay or something? I know a really good 고시원 website.
EDIT: I'd love to live in a house like My Daughter So Young drama. Rooftop house, small, comfy, view of the whole city. In the drama the house its perceived as a shit hole by the characters, but seems a nice place to live.
Something like this
Apartments can be really extremely expensive in areas of Seoul. It's not just "big" houses. I wouldn't judge houses in Korea by their appearance because I've seen some really misleading places that are worth a small fortune.
And please don't stay in a Goshiwon unless you enjoy living life as a sub human. They're horrible, small rooms sometimes as small as a walk in closet with barely enough room to sleep and sit at a cramped desk. Sometimes include no ventilation at all and no windows if you're unlucky. The photos on websites are extremely misleading and use extreme wide angle lenses to make the rooms appear bigger than they really are.

Miss Korea.
You have some "luxury" goshiwons! Lemme show you.
----
If you want, I can give the contacts from the same house that I stayed.
Luxury Goshiwon is an oxymoron.
I hope those pictures aren't misleading because I'm gonna spend one year there lol.
Also, come on... if you are spending 10-20 days in Korea, you're not gonna need a house. You will basically use it to crash every night. You will spend the whole day exploring.
I like to live in small spaces (alone), so who knows...
Seems wide enough to me.
Well all those photos are taken with wide angle lenses for starters. It will undoubtedly be smaller than the photos. The disconcerting thing is there are no windows in that first one that are visible. May be behind the taker but who knows. I hope you didn't sign up for a 1 year contract because landlords in Korea will fuck you over with your deposit money at every chance they get.
Second one looks more like a Hasuk than a Goshiwon, but probably smaller. All 3 photos are different rooms so it's hard to tell which has windows and which doesn't. My friends always had issues with the ones that had showers inside the room. Although it sounds better than having public showers, with steam and lack of ventilation it causes all kinds of issues.
Your best bet is to stay at a hostel for the first week or so and room hunt when you're actually physically there to see the rooms. I kid you not, I inspected a room for my Korean friend which looked exactly like those photos online and when I saw it in person it was a broom closet.
If you're going to Yonsei why don't you apply for the dorms there? I lived in SK Global House for almost 12 months and it was fantastic - very comfortable single rooms.
Or there's like whole streets lined with Hasukjib right near the gate out from Yonsei next to the KLI building.

Can we talk somewhere? I actually have a lot of question for you! I was banned from mIRC I dunno why. And PM is kind bad because its not instant. Do you have Steam?
This is the site that I'm using.
http://gosi1.net/
Are you 100% sure that the last ones are wide lens? Fuck.
I'm aware the window problem. And I only favorite sites that gives me the option to get a room WHEN I'M THERE. So, I will go to Seoul, go to the place and say "I'd like a room", no need to reserve in advance. Plus, I assume you just need to pay cash in advance (no problem), and not weirds deposits like you need to when you rent a room.
It's a goshiwon, made for students. Pay the total amount you gonna stay and that's it, right?
I'm visiting student at Yonsei
(and every other college I'm gonna apply)
PM is probably the best for me, don't have steam, IRC or any messaging clients really. That said I can only tell you what my friends experienced, since I never stayed in a Goshiwon. I can tell you they always use wide angle lenses though for real estate shots. Yeah best to see the rooms first, and it depends some goshiwon will let you pay in advance, others will be a deposit and monthly rent basis.Can we talk somewhere?

I put some Yonsei specific stuff in my post above btw.
It's a subunit, T-ara N4. The rest are gonna promote in Japan. T-ara itself is still 7 members.
Sub units are usually created to try new concepts or sounds without comprising the original group's vision and sound. It can also be used to showcase specific members and/or give lesser members more exposure than they would in the group.

I would have been seating near her too. All the stars sit right there close to those seats. This and my dad almost dying. Fuck you life.

Man that is indeed fucked. I hope your dad is fine.
Well at least you did see Fany in real life. That's more than most of us can say. And you did kind of recognize her... so it does count.

Well in about three years I plan on being famous. So I will just marry her after that.
My dad is cool now. Let's just say it must have sucked finding out you're allergic to bees after living 74 years of your life
You'd still have had to sit through a baseball game though. So... you did manage to skip that!
condolences on the father stuff

I like going to baseball games.
There are a few that have admitted it, I think. Hara is one.

Park Bom should've went to the same plastic surgeon as Lizzy.
Yeah, haven't 2 of the girls from girls day admitted it too? and someone from secret i'm sure has.
I also want to gyuri, but, not sure.

I don't think they even need to admit it anymore, it's pretty much a given in most cases.
I believe you're right on hara, but i was sure someone else in kara had too (don't believe it was nicole, you trolls).
/pours 40 for faf
even though I don't know who the hell he is
I was just banned
so I know those feels
I know
Banned from here, lost your old forum. What DID you do?
Naw, I didn't get banned from here-- I don't post enough. I was banned because I expressed in a gif how I felt if Hyoyeon ever cut her hair and it was a gif of a guy's eyes popping out
he was turning into a werewolf
BUT DID I LIE??
