I had the best time here! met so many amazing people, both other volunteers and the coliving students. busan is an AMAZING city and the apartment/studio is in a great area. will definitely cherish these memories forever. the apartment gets really cold sometimes but overall it's not bad. definitely recommend if you like talking to people and making the coliving.

Best first WP experience! I had such a great time meeting the locals and helping them with conversational English, hanging out with the other volunteers (and with locals), and exploring Busan. Bryan and Messi were kind and accommodating. Highly recommend 😊. Core memories were made!!

I had an unforgettable time the coliving working at the language studio. Messi and Bryan are super friendly and the work is basically just having conversations in English with the coliving locals. The apartment is also really nice, spacious and very close from the language studio. We've done a lot of group activities together with the other volunteers. I would absolutely recommend this position to everyone that is thinking about it.

I can't recommend this place enough 🥹 The managers are cool and Messi is such a sweetheart - he has a loooot of patience for us volunteers, and he's super chill and funny. Communication with the studio is so easy and casual. The apartment is spacious, we were all well taken care of. The work is super casual, just be on time (and it's easy to be on time because the apartment is like a minute away from the studio). I made such good the coliving with the other volunteers and we spent so much time going out or hanging out together (although optional, some like their solitude!). 10/10 experience 🤍

Super thankful to meet Messi and Bryan. They are really nice to help me with the work and I really enjoy the work here. I could have life-long friendship with my colleagues and locals. Fun times and group activities every weeks bring good memory to me.
