[Asia Economy Reporter Onyu Lim] "Live for free in Seongsu-dong, Korea's Brooklyn."


Zigbang announced on the 4th that it is recruiting participants for the second season of its Live-Experience Campaign, 'Live in Seongsu-dong.'


The Zigbang Live-Experience Campaign rents houses in popular areas to users so they can live there themselves. Through this direct living experience, users can decide which house and neighborhood suit them best. Zigbang provides everything, including the deposit, monthly rent, and even the interior design.


This time, the campaign location is Seongsu-dong, Seongdong-gu, Seoul, selected through a vote by Zigbang users. Seongsu-dong is known as "Korea's Brooklyn," a neighborhood where the past and present coexist with charm. It is familiar as a city of artists, from handmade shoe craftsmen to creators, and trendy cafes converted from factories are bustling with young people. It has the advantage of convenient transportation to both Gangnam and Gangbuk areas, reachable within 30 minutes, and with Seoul Forest and Jungnangcheon nearby, residents can enjoy forest and nature even in the city.


Users who wish to participate in the campaign can apply through the event page within the Zigbang application. They can choose their favorite house from three listings, post it on their Instagram, and write why they want to live in Seongsu-dong. The participation period is until the 20th, and winners can live in their chosen house without worrying about deposit or rent for four months, from March 1 to June 30.



The first season of the Live-Experience Campaign was held in Mangwon-dong, Mapo-gu, Seoul. Over 5,300 users applied to live in Mangwon-dong, resulting in a competition rate of 1770:1. The three final selected residents were job seekers, students, and interns who participated in the campaign for four months from September 1 to December 31 last year.
