What should I pack when moving to Ilsan?
We asked people living in Ilsan to list three things they wish they had brought and three they wish they had left behind. They responded...
"When moving to Ilsan, it's important to pack clothing suitable for all four seasons, as the weather can vary greatly throughout the year. This includes lightweight clothing for the hot and humid summers, as well as warm clothing for the cold winters. Don't forget to pack a good quality raincoat and umbrella, as the monsoon season can bring heavy rainfall. Pack enough toiletries to last for the first few weeks, including any specific brands you might not be able to find in Korea. It's also a good idea to bring any prescription medications you need, along with a copy of your prescription. Bring a universal power adapter for your electronic devices, as the plug type in Korea might be different from your home country. Also, consider packing a portable charger for your devices, as you might be out exploring the city for long periods. If you're planning to cook at home, you might want to pack some specific spices or ingredients that might be hard to find in Ilsan. However, keep in mind that Korea has strict customs regulations, so check beforehand what food items you're allowed to bring. Pack some personal items that will make your new place feel like home. This could be photos of family and friends, a favorite blanket or pillow, or any other item that brings you comfort. Don't forget to bring important documents such as your passport, visa documents, driver's license, and any other identification. It's also a good idea to bring copies of these documents, just in case. Lastly, consider packing a small gift from your home country. This can be a nice gesture when meeting new people or visiting someone's home in Korea," commented one expat who made the move to Ilsan, Korea.
