What should I pack when moving to Bundang?
We asked people living in Bundang to list three things they wish they had brought and three they wish they had left behind. They responded...
"When moving to Bundang, it's essential to pack clothing suitable for all four seasons, as the country experiences a hot, humid summer and a cold winter. You should pack lightweight clothing for the summer months, including shorts, t-shirts, and sandals, as well as heavier clothing for the winter, such as coats, sweaters, scarves, gloves, and boots. Don't forget to pack a good quality raincoat and umbrella, as the monsoon season can bring heavy rain. It's also a good idea to pack some formal attire, as Koreans often dress up for social events. In terms of toiletries, while most items are readily available in Korea, if you have specific brands that you prefer, it's a good idea to bring them with you. The same goes for any prescription medication you take - bring enough to last you until you can arrange a local supply. If you're planning on cooking at home, you might want to pack some of your favorite non-perishable food items, as they may be hard to find in Korea. Remember to pack any electronics you'll need, including a laptop, smartphone, and chargers. An international power adapter is also essential, as the plug sockets in Korea are different from those in many other countries. Lastly, don't forget to pack important documents, such as your passport, visa paperwork, and any other identification you'll need. It's also a good idea to bring copies of these documents, just in case," wrote a member who made the move to Bundang, Korea.
