My three weeks at the language studio flew by! I met so many lovely and interesting people and built genuine connections with both foreigners and locals, during lessons and outside the studio. I'll always cherish these memories and would definitely love to return to Busan! Juram is super nice and flexible host who genuinely cares about the team and regularly checks in to see if we need anything. The accommodation is fine, but maybe some extra storage space, new pots and pans would make it more comfortable.

I don't really want to repeat what everyone else here has said because it is all true- Juram and Bryan are very nice, talking to koreans is so fun and the times are respected. Everything from the studio is about 1-1,5 hours away which is fine but just something to remember. The neighbourhood is very hip and foreigner friendly because of PNU being in the center of it. We went out with the Koreans almost every night to karaoke, dinner or bowling so if you are a solo traveler you can definitely make some the coliving there and hang out. The apartment is big, clean and also very close to the studio.
