Gross bookings per Yeongju-si listing averaged ₩14,483,248 over the 12 months to September 2026 (North Gyeongsang average: ₩17,097,573), before cleaning, platform and management costs and taxes.
In a typical year, the average Yeongju-si listing brings in ₩2,070,000 in August, its best month, and ₩1,280,000 in April, its slowest. October runs within 5% of August, so either can come out on top in a given year. The three strongest months bring in 30% of a full year's revenue, where an even calendar would give any three months 25%.
In a typical month, a top-quarter listing earns at least 4.3 times as much as a bottom-quarter one.
These are monthly figures for listings active in each month. The annual average above also counts listings that operated for only part of the year, so it runs below twelve times these figures.
August earns about 1.6 times what April does

Averages per active listing in each month. Highlighted: the highest-revenue month of the 12. RevPAR is the month's revenue spread over its nights, booked or not. Booking lead time is the days between booking and check-in, and length of stay the nights per booking, for stays in that month.
The typical Yeongju-si listing earns about ₩1,330,000 a month, but one property can land well above or below that. The Airbnb revenue calculator gives a range for a specific address, built from the comparable listings around it.
Profit
Yes, when it's run well. The average Yeongju-si Airbnb took in ₩14,483,248 in the 12 months to September 2026, and run by its owner at everyday costs, about ₩880,000 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 ₩1,620,000 a month.
Cleaning it yourself keeps the ₩160,000 a year guests pay in cleaning fees, for about ₩890,000 a month. Handing the listing to a co-host at about 10% of nightly bookings still leaves about ₩760,000 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.

RevPAR, or revenue per available night, divides a listing's income by every night it was open to book, so it rises with both price and bookings. In Yeongju-si it averaged ₩52,000 over the past year, from about ₩42,500 in a typical April to about ₩66,800 in a typical August.

AirROI measures bookings in US dollars; this page shows them in South Korean won at ₩1,448 per US$, the typical rate from October 2025 to September 2026. Annual revenue averages every listing active during the period, including those listed for only part of it; monthly figures average the listings active in each month; the tier lists show the spread. Neighborhood descriptions are AI-assisted. See the methodology for definitions.
