  • English ⏬We all know the viral Netflix series Squid Game. After the release of season 3 on June 27, 2025, there was a special real-life event in Seoul from June 29 to July 6, from 2:00 PM to 8:00 PM, where you could actually experience the game atmosphere in person!At the event, there were several photo zones, a small exhibition featuring various Netflix series, and of course, real games from the beloved show!1. Ddakji (딱지) GameTo play, you had to find the man in the suit with a suitcase — which wasn’t too hard, because there was always a crowd around him, haha. If you were chosen, you got 3 chances to flip over the square. If you succeeded, you received a prize card, and even if you lost, you got a consolation prize.(For this game, I got traditional Korean cookies called Yakgwa (약과)! 🥰)2. Another fun game by the 🟥 ManThis mysterious character chose people to join the upcoming games — unfortunately, I only got to be a spectator. He divided the participants into teams.The first game was jump rope — a simplified version for kids. The second was a team match involving Ddakji (딱지) and Biseokchigi (비석치기). One person would play Ddakji and the other would play Biseokchigi.It was all organized like a mini stage performance — super cute and fun to watch!3. And now the biggest game of the event: Jump Rope (줄넘기)This one attracted a huge crowd! First, we had to wait in an incredibly long line. We thought we’d get to play right after, but it turned out it was just the registration line. 😅We registered using our phone numbers and received a number over 100 (can’t remember the exact one). The waiting time was over 3.5 hours!On the last day, the game ran until 9 PM — so luckily, we made it in and got to jump just like the Squid Game contestants!The rules were explained in Korean, but if there were any non-Korean speakers, they also gave instructions in English. Many of the staff at all stations spoke English too and were helpful with questions.Rounds: • Round 1: Practice • Round 2: Jump 15 times • Round 3: Jump + twist jump + squat down and touch the ground after a jumpSome people even jumped on one foot afterward, but I’m not sure if that was part of the official rules.For participating, everyone received a prize card, and the winners got a special card for an additional prize.🎁 Prize CollectionYou had to go to the prize zone and show your card. Then, you’d randomly draw a colored ball (they were red 🔴 or blue 🔵).I got two keychains — you can hang them on your bag or display them like a mini acrylic figure.For completing the jump rope challenge (which we thought we did pretty well 😄), we got a tote bag, a box of cookies, and a QR code to download a game — plus a special code (we haven’t tried the game yet though).If you’re curious, leave a comment and a like — and I’ll write a part 2 with prize reviews and more photos! 😘✨ What did you think of this event review?Would you want to go, or have you already been?

  • Recently, at work, I encountered a very interesting case that I wanted to elaborate on so that foreigners in Korea know for the future.A girl signed a one-year apartment lease. The contract was signed through a Korean "pudongsan," and upon moving in, in addition to the deposit, rent, and advance payment, the "pudongsan" charged their brokerage fee, which is called 중개수수료 in Korean.Due to circumstances, the girl needed to move out, but there were still six months left on her contract. Therefore, she found new tenants who could live in her place so she could terminate the contract with the landlord without any issues. However, the landlord then asked the girl to pay the brokerage fee to the "pudongsan" again. While communicating with the new tenants who were supposed to move in, the girl learned that the new tenants also had to pay a brokerage fee.Our protagonist thought that the landlady was trying to deceive her and charge a brokerage fee without reason, despite the fact that the new tenants would also be paying a fee.Before I tell you how the story ended, let me give you some background on how "pudongsans" work and what role they play in Korea.Realtors in CIS Countries:In CIS countries, many people hold the opinion that realtors are unnecessary. This opinion is prevalent in our countries because often only the tenant pays the realtor's commission. In practice, it turns out that the tenant finds the apartment themselves, views it themselves, negotiates the price with the landlord themselves, and goes to a notary to certify and check the contract themselves – while the tenant has to pay the commission to the realtor, who simply stood by (at most – answered a phone call).Realtors in CIS countries charge approximately 2–6% of the transaction amount. The agency fee depends on the real estate company, its reputation, the nature of the services, the market situation, and the terms of the contract with the client. The commission is paid by the party that is more interested in the deal.Realtors in Korea:In Korea, real estate-related professions are very diverse and can be divided into brokerage (중개), development (개발), management (관리), investment (투자), consulting (컨설팅), etc.When looking for housing in Korea, Russian-speaking foreigners use the word "pudongsan" to mean a real estate agency or brokerage firm. However, "pudongsan" in Korean literally translates to "real estate." If you want to say "real estate agency," the full name is "부동산 중개사무소." From this name, we can see that a real estate agent (broker) in Korean is called a 중개사, and the commission to the broker is called a 중개 수수료.The commission for real estate services in Korea is generally borne by the client who contacts a certified real estate agent to conclude a purchase or lease agreement. Consequently, both the seller and the buyer, as well as the landlord and the tenant, are obligated to pay the commission.This means that, unlike in our countries, in Korea, both parties to the transaction pay the brokerage commission, sometimes split equally.Let's return to our protagonist's story:— Then why did the landlord ask the protagonist to pay the brokerage fee upon moving out, even though she found replacement tenants and the new tenants were also paying a brokerage fee?— Because it was stipulated in her contract under the special conditions section (특약사항).The protagonist's contract stated that the tenant is responsible for re-renting the property in case of early termination (she had six months left on the contract). This is what the landlord cited when demanding the brokerage fee. It turns out that situations can arise where the brokerage fee has to be paid twice.However! By law, even with early termination, the tenant is not obligated to pay the commission again, unless otherwise specified in the contract.Therefore, it is very important not to sign any contracts if you do not fully understand their content!This can be challenging for foreigners, given the fast pace of life in Korea, but it is better to spend a little time verifying the terms to be protected by law.Korean laws protect foreigners as well – the main thing is to know your rights.
