“It's the prettiest house with a charm on the top of the mountain. The house is well-prepared with furniture and appliances. I stayed for a month and they didn't charge me for the utility bills : ) There was a small problem during my stay, but the host lived above and solved it right away. It's a well-decorated house just like the pictures. I highly recommend it!”

“Really cozy and nice! The bed is wide enough for two people to sleep comfortably, and that table can be raised up to use - it's amazing! Perfect for working on the sofa. The lighting is beautifully done, and the dining table is a good size for two people to use without any issues. Microwave, rice cooker, refrigerator, cooking utensils (frying pan, pot), dishes, etc. - everything is so well-equipped! Shampoo, conditioner, detergent, seasoning sauces, and most of what you need for daily living are all prepared!! I was a bit worried because it's a semi-basement, but I lived very comfortably during my stay, and there's a fence right in front so people don't pass by! Hot water comes out amazingly well and the water pressure is super strong!! Air conditioning works great and heating works well too!!! Thanks to this, I stayed at a great accommodation and am leaving happy! Thank you!! It's the best!⭐️”

Frequently Asked Questions

What is LiveAnywhere?

LiveAnywhere is Korea's favorite short-term and vacation rental platform, built for extended stays of one week to six months. From trendy studios in Seoul to relaxing beach houses in Jeju, every home comes fully furnished and can be booked in minutes through the LiveAnywhere app.

It works much like Airbnb, but with a structure designed for longer visits: competitive weekly and monthly rates instead of nightly pricing, no repeated cleaning fees, and utilities included in your payment. That's why an extended stay in Korea through LiveAnywhere often costs noticeably less than booking the same period on a nightly platform.

Some listings show a deposit. What is it, and do I get it back?

Some listings include a small security deposit, far smaller than the large lump-sum deposits required by traditional Korean leases. Your deposit is held securely in escrow by LiveAnywhere, not by the host. After checkout, the host checks the property, and once they confirm there are no issues, your deposit is refunded within a maximum of 5 business days.

Is renting near Seoul National University a good alternative to the dorms?

Many students book with LiveAnywhere after missing out on a dorm spot, or to skip dorm rules like curfews and shared rooms. You get a private, fully furnished place near campus with your own kitchen and bathroom, and you choose your own move-in and move-out dates instead of following the dorm calendar.

Can I book a place near Seoul National University before I arrive in Korea?

Yes, and booking early is recommended since listings near campus fill up before each semester starts. You can complete the entire booking online from abroad with an international credit card. You don't need a Korean residence card (ARC), a Korean bank account, or a local guarantor, which are the usual roadblocks when renting through a Korean realtor.

How much does a short-term house cost near Seoul National University?

Near Seoul National University, pricing for a short stay house generally falls between ₩762,000 and ₩2,395,000 per month based on 24 matched listings. Rates vary depending on the exact size, interior features, and lease duration you choose. Browse more available properties in this area to find a house that matches your budget and schedule.

These options range from compact private rooms to fully independent houses suited for various lifestyle needs. Across 24 active listings in the area, you will find spaces equipped to support your short-term living requirements.

Can I pay with a foreign credit card?

Yes. We accept Visa, MasterCard, UnionPay, JCB and more. And the entire booking is completed online. Payments are processed in Korean won (KRW).

Are utilities included, or are there extra fees?

Yes, utilities are included, so you won't get separate bills for electricity, water, or gas during your stay. The total shown at checkout is the full amount you pay, and nothing is added after you book.

Can I search LiveAnywhere by price, location, or amenities?

You can filter search results by price, location, and amenities on LiveAnywhere, which makes it easier to zero in on listings that actually fit your budget and needs.

Can I stay for a full semester, and what if I need to extend?

Yes. LiveAnywhere supports extended stays, so you can book for a semester from the start. If your plans change mid-stay, you can request an extension through the app, and as long as the home is available for your new dates, you keep staying without moving out.
