More than 10 million foreign tourists visited South Korea in the first half of this year alone.
With major events lined up for next year, such as "Phenomenon"—often called the "Korean Coachella"—and the 2027 Seoul World Youth Day,
the number of tourists is expected to grow even further. While the entire tourism industry is buzzing, the lodging sector is particularly thrilled.
Nowadays, options have expanded beyond traditional hotels to include guesthouses, homesharing, and more.

In fact, it is now easy to find people around us taking on homesharing as a side hustle, right?
However, actually getting started can feel overwhelming, leaving people unsure of what and how to prepare.
That is why Videomug met directly with three current hosts who are generating handsome profits through Airbnb.
We also captured news from the recent homesharing expo, "K-stay Expo 2026."
From the sweet talk of "feeling like someone is bringing you an extra paycheck" to the reality of having to live like an "on-call worker 24 hours a day,"
check out the A to Z of operating a homesharing business in the video.
