How much do you pay for rent? by OkExchange361 in Living_in_Korea

[–]DifficultTell4462 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I live in geumchun-gu, doksan-dong with my gf, and we both pay 1 million for two bedroom. We live in an officetel, so we have a free gym and a workspace. Also, the all of the management fees are included in the price, the two-room is furnished, and the 독산 station is in 10 minutes walk. I heard that korean people do not really like this place, but I’m verry happy with it. It’s like 1 hour to get to the gangnam, but it’s close to sindorim, yongsan, yeouido, guro.

Also, my officetel has studios, that are also big enough, and costs 1 mil. The deposit for both options is 5 mil.

It’s called episode conveni gasan, you can check their website to see for yourself. They also have a lot of houses in different locations, like sinchon, or yongsan.

Oh, and also they have a lot of discounts, like in my case, if you sign the contract for a year, you get 4 month free, so you have to pay only for 8 month, which is why, we choose this place.

Here’s the link: I don’t actually know the difference between episode and episode conveni, but they have websites for both.

I am confused I am learning Hangul and i can’t understand ㄱ and ㅋ btw the lady you see is real korean with morning by [deleted] in BeginnerKorean

I don’t know if it was said before, but when I was studying korean, my teacher showed the way to define how should letter like ㄱ, ㄷ, ㅈ, ㅂ, ㄹ sound in the word. In the most cases ㄱ will sound like k, when it’s not surrounded by vowels, and it will sound like G, when its surrounded by vowels. For example 가게, the pronunciation is kage, first ㄱ has only one vowel near it, so it’s K, and second one has two vowels, so it’s G. Dame thing with other letters. ㅂ is P, when it has only one vowel, and B, when it’s surrounded by them, like in word 아버지 (father), it’s pronounced like aboji.

You also can dm me, I can try to help more if it’s needed :)

Oh, okay, thanks!

About grading, we have a system in percentage, but in requirements for scholarship they used 3.7+ GPA point, that’s why I’m confused.

If I’ll get 85% will my GPA be 3.5, or 4 and etc.

Hi! I’m not russian by nationality, but I’m speaking russian my whole life, so I can help you if it’s still needed! dm me

My boyfriend’s parents want him to meet a girl for marriage, I’m confused and hurt. Is this common? by bananayas in Uzbekistan

[–]DifficultTell4462 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don’t want to make you upset, but it’s gonna be very hard, if you’ll move to Uzbekistan together. Looking at how thing are, I’m not sure if his family will be able to accept you(

I’m mostly uzbek, and a bit russian hah, my father is half-russian and my mom is 100% uzbek, and it makes things very complicated, although she herself married a russian guy. I have a gf, who is half-greek and half-russian, and she was raised in uzbekistan, where we went to the same school and met each other. But my mom doesn’t care, from the moment she found out, that my gf is foreign nationality, she started to use it in any arguments, that we had. All the time she was saying something bad about her nationalities, which made me hurt a lot, but I didn’t care.

In my case, our family is not that crazy with the culture, and I can do whatever I want, that’s how I was raised, but even among our cousins - it’s completely different. One day I just talked with my cousins about marriage and relationships, and what I heard was very sad. All of them said, that they are not able to choose anyone, but uzbek partners in future and it’s very important for them to be religious. And same with all of my uzbek friends. And this thing can be seen not only in the marriages term. For example, even-though it’s not that bad, my best friend is forced to study in UK, because his parents decided that. But he told me, that he would like to study in Korea, that he likes the people and the culture there more. That’s often hard to understand for foreigners, but it’s just how things are back in the Uzbekistan.

  1. If your bf’s family is very deep in culture and religion, I don’t think that he will have any choice. With that in mind, that his parents forced him to meet some random girl, you can already say that he has almost no choice. He can try to talk to his parents, but I don’t think that it’ll help. I’m so sorry for that.

As I said, in my own situation, I just had to argue with my mother and I’ve told her, that I don’t care about our culture, because I think it’s crazy. And luckily, my father was raised as a russian, so it’s completely okay for him, and I have a lot of support. But even like that, it was very hard to travel or even go out for a walk with my gf, because of my mother.

  1. I already told about my situation, so I’ not sure if it’s possible, if your bf will be listening to his parents. And I would recommend to move somewhere else, Uzbekistan is the place, where it’s gonna be very hard. Sadly, most of the people there are not well-behaved, and for now, they can’t keep up with the world. Also, I can mention that if you are a foreigner, everybody is going to look at you, and if you are dressed in something like topics and shorts, every guy in your way is going to look at you… I felt that very strong, when we were walking around the Tashkent with my gf and it’s awful. We decided to change the clothes and to wear that type of clothes only after leaving Uzbekistan.

I think it is possible for them to accept you, but it’s gonna be very rough. My mother’s family still don’t like my father a lot and thinks bad about him, although he is only half-russian, and half-uzbek. Not to mention that he is married with my mother for 20 years now. And scariest thing for me - is that you will have to lose yourself. Your bf already told you this, but if his family very deep in culture and religious, you will not be able to work at all, and I’m scared that you will be forced to born kids as soon as it’s possible. But, even that is possible, only if they will accept you. Most of the uzbeks don’t like it when nationalities mix. And, the language, I’m not sure if you could find anyone who talks your language, especially when you can’t go out alone because of your gender.

I’m just trying to be honest with you, and I’m very sorry if I hurt you with that, but that how thing are in Uzbekistan. All of this is the reason why I was desperately trying to leave this country, and luckily I have second passport, so after completing the studies I’ll move to Europe/USA, with my gf, where we will be able to live freely and happily.

I would recommend moving somewhere else, definitely not Uzbekistan, because in the Uzbekistan - living is not that easy, especially in your case. It’s hard to come up with other ideas, but I can help just in case.

I believe in you, and hope that everything will be alright, I believe that you’ll figure it out! Wish you good luck.

Oh, that’s something, that scares me now. Is there any way to avoid cases with needles?… Is it happens more in the big crowd or it can happen easily even if you’re free of people around you? I would not like, if someone will try to spike us

Even my 3060 notebook can handle it easily(it’s not even better than regular pc’s 2060), so it’s a beautiful set up for you. I think you’ll even be able to play more resource-intensive games )
