CO-LIVING OVERVIEW
Co-living is defined as a form of rental housing which includes shared living rooms and kitchens apart from private rooms within a single building. Co-living is attractive to individuals by providing various amenities and communal spaces that are otherwise less accessible to individuals such as kitchens, co-working spaces, fitness facilities, rooftop gardens, pet playgrounds, and cinemas, as well as offering diverse programs and activities aimed to engage residents. The facility is differentiated from a shared house, which suffers from low levels of privacy and potential conflict among housemates, by ensuring personal areas. In Korea, co-living currently operates via various building uses including Urban Residential Housing, Officetels, or Lodging facilities.
