  • There are hostels in Korea, and then there are JinChilBong's. They are not always advertised, and if you do not speak or read Korean, they can be hard to find.

    But if you are traveling on a budget, you can stay at these without hesitation. The shower, sauna and locker rooms are separate for men and women. But there will be typically a large open room and several hot dry saunas that are co-ed.

    Many Koreans of all ages will come here and sleep on the floor during all times of the day. Once you pay, you can stay as long as you want during one single visit.

    Unique Qualities: Hot tubs, showers, saunas, dry saunas, and even a snack bar (do not bring in your own food).
    The hotel will provide you with pajamas, towels, blanket and a small pillow.

    Men pay 7000 KRW - men's locker/shower is on floor 6
    Women pay 3500 KRW - women's locker/shower is on floor 4
    Unisex JinChilBong is on floor 5.

     Bring back fond memories. When I was here, it was spelled "Pusan".

     I love the sounds of the hotel - very different.

     Good photo and tips....especially like the pic of Yungkungsa. I haven't been there yet...I think you have inspired me!

     Seems like all the hype about Busan are justified. Good hotel tip, and the fish market looks interesting.
