Profit
Is an Airbnb in Yong-myeon Profitable?
Yes, when it's run well. The average Yong-myeon Airbnb took in ₩14,420,558 in the 12 months to May 2025, 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 ₩1,390,000 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 Yong-myeon's Top Earners Get There
- More nights booked. The busiest quarter of Yong-myeon listings are booked on 26% or more of their nights, against 20% for the median listing. Ten more booked nights a year at the median rate of ₩183,000 adds about ₩1,830,000 in bookings.
- Prices that follow demand. Ranked by price, the top quarter charge ₩263,000 a night or more, against a median of ₩183,000. 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 ₩1,440,000 a year.
- Open for the busy months. November brought the average listing about ₩2,160,000, against ₩876,000 in March, 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 ₩1,890,000 a month, against ₩1,200,000 for the average one.
