Hoppin: coliving in Seoul and workations across Korea

Hoppin runs an all-English coliving house in Seoul plus a programme of workations elsewhere in Korea and Japan. Hoppin House sits in Yeonnam, the quiet neighbourhood next to Hongdae, and the operator reports having hosted hundreds of people across its coliving, coworking and event formats.

What Hoppin Does

• Hoppin House in Seoul. Private and shared rooms from around 900,000 won a month, with a seven night minimum and seasonal discounts.
• An all-English community. With weekly events and a work-ready setup, aimed at internationals rather than locals.
• Workation programmes. Run in Busan, Jeju and Kobe, as dated group trips.
• A Fukuoka pop-up. A 14 night co-created programme with Colive Fukuoka taking over a boutique hotel, priced per person for the full stay.
• Coworking spaces. Used for work, socialising and events.

Why It Makes Sense for Nomads

Korea is one of the most connected countries on earth and a genuinely great place to spend a few months, with world-class public transport, food, mountains inside Seoul, and internet that makes most of Europe look slow. It has historically been hard to arrange as a nomad, with a rental market built around large key-money deposits.

Yeonnam is the right neighbourhood for a first stay: leafy, full of cafes and small restaurants, and walking distance from Hongdae's nightlife without being in it.

The workation programmes are the other half of the offer, and they are dated group trips rather than open bookings, so check the calendar. The Fukuoka edition in particular sells as a full 14 night package rather than by the night.

Pricing

Hoppin House from around 900,000 Korean won a month, roughly 600 euros, with a seven night minimum. Workation programmes are priced per edition.
