Youth Monthly Rent Special Support
Cash support of up to ₩200,000/month for up to 24 months (₩4.8M total) for homeless youth. Open for application anytime starting 2026.
💡 ₩200,000 × 24 months = ₩4.8M deposited straight into your account. From 2026 the application deadline is gone, so you can apply anytime — skipping it is simply a loss.
What the ads say
Any young person gets ₩200,000 a month in rent.
How it actually works
Targets homeless youth aged 19–34 living independently. The applicant's own income must be 60% or less of the standard median income (about ₩1.7M/month for a single person), and the original household's income including parents must be 100% or less (about ₩4.19M/month for three people). It pays up to ₩200,000/month for up to 24 months (extended from 12 to 24 months in 2026). From 2026 it shifts from a temporary program to a permanent one, with the application deadline abolished. The home must have a deposit of ₩50M or less and rent of ₩600,000 or less (varies by local government).
⚠ Traps
- •Can't be combined with Housing Benefit (jugeo geupyeo), the Youth Allowance, or public rental (such as Haengbok Housing) — if you're receiving other support, you can only apply after it ends.
- •Even if your own income is low, you're disqualified if your parents' (original household) income exceeds 100% of the median — the structure cuts you off 'if your parents are well-off.'
- •Homes above the deposit/rent ceilings (₩50M / ₩600,000) are excluded, and detailed criteria differ by local government, so verify by where you live.
