We're staying in the same neighborhood as last year: Nampo-dong.
It’s located in the city center near the sea. This area is famous for the Jagalchi fish market and Gukje, a historic market established in 1945 after the end of Japanese occupation.
To get a feel for the area, we recommend watching 'Ode to My Father', a beloved Korean film about Gukje Market 
All participants will stay in the same residential hotel, with all rooms in a single building. Each person has a private room with a double bed and private bathroom, available in two types: Studio and Suite.
The hotel lounge offers breakfast and will also serve as our community lounge for coworking and casual gatherings. It will remain open until late at night, making it a convenient spot for those who have to work late.
Participants will receive a Hoppin Busan Pass, giving access to several coworking spaces around the city — all within easy reach of our accommodation.
Our main coworking base will be the Busan Workation Center, centrally located with a panoramic view of the city.
We’ll also visit other coworking spots and scenic cafes throughout the program for a mix of productivity and exploration.
A Global Community on the Move
Whether you're building your next big thing or seeking fresh inspiration, you’ll be surrounded by like-minded people who understand your lifestyle. Meet creatives, freelancers, entrepreneurs, and remote workers from around the world.
