My house is located in Incheon, but it is a 10-minute walk from the subway station to Seoul, and there is a bus stop in front of my house, so it is easy to move to other places. There are various convenience facilities around the apartment, especially the river and mountains within a 10- to 20-minute walk, making it a good place to take a walk or hike. Even if it's not downtown, it's a quiet residential area, so it's a good place to rest safely and comfortably.
We don't provide breakfast, but we have basic cereal and drinks, you can eat them for free, and we often cook the Korean dishes because we like cooking, so we can eat them together, if you want.
We offer private rooms first, but if you want, we can sometimes have a meal together and look around Seoul or the neighborhood together.

Lee and Choo were amazing hosts that we really recommend to everyone who wants to visit Seoul and enjoy with a really nice and fun Korean couple. Our trip to Korea was very improvised and we had to plan everything very quickly without knowing anything about Korea. With them we learned a lot about Seoul and the Korean lifestyle and food.
We can only say about the accommodation that it was perfect. Big enough, clean, no noise... We really enjoyed our almost two weeks at their house. You have your private room, also have your own bathroom and free access to cook in the kitchen, you can store food in the refrigerator and on the shelves and use the washing machine to clean your clothes. That is incredible.
The only thing that you have to keep in mind is their house is a little bit far from some places to Seul, but you can get there easily by subway, bus or train.
Sharing a house with them was very pleasant and easy, sometimes we have dinner or talk together, do some trip when they are free and, other times, everyone respects privacy and rest, you couldn't ask for more, honestly. They are always waiting to see if you need anything, they are extremly generous sharing a lot of things with us and giving good advices about Korea.
If we can come back to Seul we definitly will stay at their place again. We hope that we can meet soon in Korea, Spain or Bangkok, who knows :)October 2023
Lee et Chu sont adorables ,accueillants, leur gentillesse, leur douceur et soucieux de mon bien être ce qui m'a permis d'être à l'aise immédiatement et pour ma part je les vois comme des amis aujourd'hui. Leur appartement est spacieux , durant mon séjour j'ai eu une chambre et une salle de bain mis à ma disposition. J'ai partagé leur quotidien et leur repas ce qui m'a permis de découvrir différent plats locaux, ils m'ont également fait découvrir divers endroit en leur compagnie que je n'aurait absolument pas connu sans eux. L'emplacement de l'appartement est très intéressant , même si un peu loin du centre de Séoul, cela permet de s'immerger complètement dans la vie quotidienne coréenne, il est très mais vraiment bien desservi par le métro à 10-15 mn à pied et par le bus à 1 mn à pied. En métro est à 30mn environ de l'aéroport d'Incheon et à 20mn (soit 2 stations) de celui de Gimpo pour ceux qui souhaitent aller sur l'île de Jeju par exemple durant leur séjour comme moi et bien c'est juste parfait.

Lee and his wife Choo were such great hosts. Prior to my arrival, the communication between us was very easy and reassuring. Lee was open to any questions before my flight. They made me feel very welcomed from the moment I arrived in South Korea, meeting me at the nearest train station to their home. It was approaching midnight by the time I got to my final destination. Also, they very kindly helped me with my suitcase. Thankfully, it was not too long a walk to their apartment around 10 – 15 minutes. Once we got to their apartment they gave me a quick tour. They have a very lovely home. It is very clean and organised. I had a good-sized bedroom, which included a fan. Despite it being September, the temperatures were still in the 30°Cs region. In addition, I had my own bathroom and balcony. Lee and Choo are both busy working professionals, so their free time is limited. Nonetheless, they offered advice on places to visit and were happy to answer any questions that I had, and on the odd occasion, we went out together. For example, on one weekend, we spent the day out in Seoul. We visited Namdaemun market, Namsam park and the Ahn Jung-geun Memorial Museum. We did a lot of walking (while in South Korea be prepared to do a lot of walking). We also had an absolutely delicious meal called Cheese Jjimdak. Afterwards, we went on the hunt for dessert. En route, we came across a small art exhibition held in an equally small and quaint Korean house. It really was very charming. Not long after, we stumbled upon our dessert spot. It really was worth the wait. We had the mango snowflake, which I coupled with a mango bubble tea both of which were absolutely glorious. We just chatted, laughed, and I shared what little Korean I had learnt so far. There were lots of opportunities to constantly try different types of Korean food, not just when I was out and about, but also whilst in their home. Choo is an excellent and enthusiastic cook. I was able to sample some of her dishes such as Kimchi, a Korean potato dish and Kimchi pancakes. All in all, I had such a wonderful time. I was able to immerse myself in the culture, traditions, language, and way of life in South Korea. They really are a very generous and warm couple. They feel like my new family abroad. I truly hope to see them again in the near future. I would highly recommend booking a stay with Lee and Choo.

Ils sont adorables. Très hospitaliers. Leur appartement est vaste et très accueillant. La salle de bain privative est un atout aussi. Située proche de l'aéroport, c'est une étape tranquille et très utile... Que vous veniez ou partiez, après ou avant un voyage aller où retour, ce homestay est parfait. J'y reviendrai... Merci très fort Sanggu et Tchu. Je vous embrasse très fort
