pre-departure & important tips
Here is everything that I think is useful for a student studying abroad, both pre-departure and during your stay in Korea.
I didn't really notice anything horrible about the water quality in Korea when I first moved in, but others mentioned that more hair was falling out than usual. After about a month, I started to notice that more hair was falling out than usual, as well as my skin breaking out. I am by no means a doctor, so there could definitely be other factors contributing to these problems.
Some people mentioned that they replaced their current shower head with a filter shower head. I bought mine from Daiso for 5,000 won, but I know that other places like Jaju sell it as well. I've been using the filtered shower head for about a month now, and to be honest, I am not sure if it's making a huge difference. Maybe my scalp was ruined from the two months of using unfiltered water... In regards to drinking water, I never drink straight from the tap like I do in Hawaii. I saved my 2 liter bottles from my quarantine and have been refilling them. Luckily, my goshiwon kitchen has a filtered water machine.

Tankless water heaters, to put it simply, heat water directly instead of utilizing a storage tank. The cold water enters the tankless water heater through a pipe, where it is rapidly heated and then delivered where it is needed. Tankless water heaters can be fueled by gas or electricity. Unlike conventional water heaters, which are only able to heat as much water as will fit in their holding tank at once, tankless water heaters may produce a steady supply of hot water as a result of their design.
