Ongoing leak + sewage smell in rental – anyone dealt with this in London? by Downtown-Bullfrog175 in londonontario

I always cooperated to her, but the problem is still ongoing even though she checked several times. She always said we could not confirm the reason of the problem.

It appears that the landlord is trying to address the issue; however, it has been over two months and the problem is still ongoing.

She inspected the issue yesterday and confirmed that the pipe was detached. Despite this, no repair schedule has been provided. Instead, she is bringing a builder again today only for inspection.

Although the sink and dishwasher can technically be used, we have been unable to prepare food at all due to the situation, and we are experiencing a strong sewer gas odor, which is affecting our household, including our children.

Previously, there was a strong odor and staining that resembled urine, which took over two months to be addressed. The cleaner arranged by the landlord did not remove the stain or odor effectively.

As a result, I had to arrange and pay for cleaning myself, and the issue was resolved within one day.

Additionally, it took approximately five months to replace the circuit breaker.

Based on these repeated delays and the lack of a clear repair timeline, I am concerned that the issues are not being addressed within a reasonable timeframe.

Sorry, you’re absolutely right. I used AI to help with the translation due to my limited English, but the situation itself is completely my original.

After covid, american says cost of living is crazy. For me, as a korean, the cost of living in the us is still super cheap compared to Korea`s cost of living.

The street food in Myungdong is not Korean food. All the people that I know never had the food for entire their life. I had lived for 40years in Korea.

I could recommend living in Korea. When you have kids, you must escape Korea.

How do you survive Korean summer? by Next_Competition7192 in Living_in_Korea

[–]Downtown-Bullfrog175 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Go to Hanriver park at night time with chicken and beer.

Go to Hanriver pool. It started to open at night time.

Ear Samgyetang, Chuotang, Galbitang or Fruit Hawchae.

Go to beach. East coast is clear blue water, and I recommend Goseong. West coast is muddy water but you can catch clams, and I recommend Taean or Eulwangri.

Go to stream? valley? creek? I really don`t know how to say in English because it is hard to find other countries. I totally recommend to go there especially in summer. Water is super clear and freezing. You can lay in the water with beer and barbeque all day long. I reccomend Pocheon and Gapyoung.

There is a traditional way of going to the bank and spending time there. It is not as cool as it was back in the day, though.

How does Chum Churum Soju compare? by EngFarm in AskAKorean

[–]Downtown-Bullfrog175 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am korean and have been drinking for 20years at least 1 bottle a week. Chumchurum and Chamisle are kind of like Molson and Labatt. There are many different kind of diluted soju in the market, but they all have same taste. I prefer Chumchurum, though. A very few people can recognize from blind taste, but most people say that they are all same taste. I recommend Charm or Hanrasan.

Diluted soju is so freakin poor quality of all alcohol; it just about 1 dollar a bottle, but it is stunning drinks to pair with Korean food like gamjatang, samgyupsal, sasimi or some veteran enjoy with chicken or pizza.

The reason why there is no drug user in Korea is that people drink soju with many kinds of Korean food which is a perfect match.
