In general, your monthly cost of living will be much lower than in
Canada, but remember, your cost of living relates directly to your
spending habits. If you're smart with your money, 350,000 won a
month will be sufficient. If you like to eat in restaurants, and
or go drinking every weekend, your monthly expenditures can easily
amount to 500,000 won. The average person spends somewhere between
350,000 and 500,000 won a month.
Korean people are conservative and
traditional. Behavior, attitudes and beliefs, have all been developed through many
centuries of evolution. Koreans are usually very accepting and understanding of differences between themselves and
Canadians. You should come to Korea with an open mind and a willingness to adapt to, and learn from, the
Korean people and their culture. Koreans are known for their kindness and
generosity, as well as, their selflessness. The modern Korean youth are
very similar to those from Canada. You can expect to make many life long
friends!!!
