Yonsei Housing

Yonsei has to be one of the greenest campuses I've ever seen in my life. Although it has gone under some constructions this summer and some paths are blocked, the beauty of this campus still remains. As I've walked to this spot multiple times for classes, I sometimes still stop in front this building to look at "Mr. Famous", Mr. Yonsei for a bit before I go. He's attractive, handsome, and smart ;). He has definitely made me proud of being a student at Yonsei.

Now, let's move on to the main topic of this post: SK GLOBAL HOUSE :D. Yonsei gives students a specific date of when they are able to move in. When I checked in at the front desk of SK Global, I got to know what room number I'm in and whom my roommate is. In addition, one of many Yonsei staffs gave me my room key and this check-in and out sheet and requested to have it by the end of the day. They wanted to make sure that everything in the room is in the same condition as it is on the check-in day. Easy cheesy! It took me 5 mins.

Students have their own key to get accessed to the building and to their rooms. If you lose it, you must pay 5000 Won (~$5) to get a new one. I keep it in my wallet/ purse at all time because I need it to check in and out of the scanning machine on the second basement (B2). Otherwise, I have to jump over which would ruin my reputation :)) 

Room key

My room is on the 6th floor by the way.

After I scan my key on the door to have it opened, I put my key in this card holder to turn the electronic power on. When I take the key off, the power will be completely off.

Woohooo! Welcome to my room! My roommate didn't arrive till two days later so I owned this double room myself for 2 days. The room is symmetrically divided into two parts. I have my own bed, closet, shoe storage, desk, and chair and so does my roommate.

The only thing that we get to share is the bathroom. My room was in good condition so I'm satisfied :p

Bed and desk are right next to each other 

In the second basement of SK Global, there're some coffee shops, some restaurants, and a convenient store called GS 25. If I need something in urgent or am lazy to walk out of campus for meals, I can always get/ eat something downstairs. Overall, I must say that SK Global is a safe and convenient place for students to stay. 

After settling in and cleaning my room for a bit, I decided to go out and have a walk around Yonsei campus.
