Profit
Is an Airbnb in Maejeon-myeon Profitable?
Yes, when it's run well. The average Maejeon-myeon Airbnb took in ₩15,041,757 in the 12 months to May 2025, and run by its owner at everyday costs, about ₩920,000 a month of that is left after running costs, so a home that costs less than that to own or rent makes money. A listing in the top quarter leaves about ₩1,670,000 a month.
These amounts come before housing costs. Where the mortgage or rent is less each month, the difference is profit; a home owned outright keeps it all after property tax, home insurance and any building or condo fees.

How Maejeon-myeon's Top Earners Get There
- More nights booked. The busiest quarter of Maejeon-myeon listings are booked on 22% or more of their nights, against 13% for the median listing. Ten more booked nights a year at the median rate of ₩319,000 adds about ₩3,190,000 in bookings.
- Prices that follow demand. Ranked by price, the top quarter charge ₩440,000 a night or more, against a median of ₩319,000. That is a separate ranking from the busiest quarter, so the two marks don't multiply into one listing's takings. For the average listing, a 10% higher rate on the nights it already books adds about ₩1,500,000 a year.
- Open for the busy months. August brought the average listing about ₩3,430,000, against ₩1,050,000 in June, so a calendar that is open and full in the busy months carries the year.
What a listing keeps comes down to the figures this page measures: nightly rate, nights booked and the months it's open. A listing at the top-quarter mark takes in about ₩2,260,000 a month, against ₩1,250,000 for the average one.
