Moving into CJ International House at KU

After my first jet-lagged night at Anam Hostel, Jess met up with me to go find my dormitory on campus, CJ International House. Turns out the house is on top of a very high hill! When we finally got to the correct building, as hot and sweaty as can be, we were met by the KUBA team, KU Buddy Association, who brought me to my room and told us about the building. This building and the one nest to it have every possible thing you could need, I think you could survive without ever leaving the building...! There's a cafeteria that serves every meal including breakfast!, a music room, a student lounge, a fitness room and even (Mama will be happy to read this =D) a prayer room!

As for my dorm room, it is sooo big, well at least in comparison with my room at Anam Hostel AND there is lots of closet space! You might also want to know that it's a lot cheaper to live here than in a student house outside campus, and that most of the time the rooms are smaller than here. If you're interested in coming you can see the rates here:  https://reslife.korea.ac.kr:5001/v1/src/main/page.php?code=rate

My roommate is Grace. She is from Northern China and as you can probably tell from the picture, she's really nice!

Grace and I, yeah I'm starting to take pictures Korean style =P
We share a bathroom with a girl from Colombia, who I first met the time I got looked out of my room...=P
It's really nice living here, there are literally people from EVERYWHERE! There are 2 kitchens we share with the other girls on our flour, but I haven't seen too many people using it yet. 

They have a very strict rule about no guys on the girls flour and vis-versa. There are even separate elevators! One for girls that doesn't stop at the boys floor and the same for boys! Actually you can't even call the boys elevator from my floor! So Daniel you don't have much to worry about =)

So, I'll tell you more about what it's like living here later! Take care

  1. Hi!

    Im just a passer-by who wants to know more about CJ international house. Ive been recently assigned but am wondering if i should stick with this housing or use a goshiwon instead.

    My main concern is that does this dorm have wi-fi?

    thanks in advance!
