Booking Method :

Recently Seoul tourism organization has launched a website called B&B  (Bed and Breakfast) for guest house information and booking in Seoul. 
 There are several ways to book a guest house in Seoul. Every guest house has it's website and different booking procedure. For now Seoul city website (link) doesn't provide direct booking and payment method. It will redirect you to guest house webpage where you can send an inquire or reserve guest house instantly after seeing room and rent details. 

B&B guest houses can be searched on this website (link) . It is available in 5 languages ( english, Chinese simplified and traditional, Japanese and Korean)

For Classic Guest House, I found their information on B&B website (classic guest house).  It redirected me to their website which is nice and flashy looking website (link). I made a reservation inquiry on their website however I didn't get any response. However, I sent out email to them, and got response immediately. So most of the times we talked through email. House owner is warm and friendly person. They have a part-time staff who is fluent in English. You will face no language issues there ^^

"Neighbors from a far /교실에서 만나는 먼나라 이웃나라"

Introduction:   I participated in a volunteer activity called “Neighbors from Afar/ 교실에서 만나는 먼나라 이웃나라" orchestrated by Seoul Metropolitan Government. The main objective of this activity program was to enhance mutual understanding and respect between Koreans and foreigners living in Seoul.  In this regard, I visited Unhyun Elementary School, to deliver lecture about my home country Pakistan (파키스탄). The audience of lecture were Grade-5 elementary students. Details:    The lecture start time was 9am in the morning; therefore I had to leave early from Kyung Hee University ( 경희대학교 ) Suwon Yeongtong. The journey was pretty smooth because of good transportation system. It took one hour to reach Anguk Station. We were greeted by school staff as well as couple of pleasant shouts from kids! The school was located at nice place with green lawns and trees surrounded by tall building. Mr. Donghoon Shin told us that hat we will be joined by JoongAng Daily news reporters ...
