Seoul & Jeju are probably the most expensive you could find.

If you want a big city you can still do Busan, daegu, ulsan etc

Are foreigners really going to live on Jeju? Jeju in the winter isn't much fun...I can't imagine living on jeju. Sokcho is super underrated imo.

I had a blast in Sokcho -- could definitely spend a couple years there. To be blunt, I was bored with Jeju by day 2.

The next time I move to Korea (which I do every couple years), I'm gonna try Busan. I've visited a few times, but haven't ever lived there.
