Seoul promises to ban ‘Parasite’-style banjiha underground apartments – BBC News


Hundreds of thousands of people in South Korea live in tiny underground ‘banjiha’ apartments, made famous by the Oscar-winning film Parasite, and seen as a symbol of the country’s growing inequality and housing crisis.

Seoul is now promising to get rid of the flats after four people drowned inside them during severe flooding last month.

Some of those who live there fear they’ll be left with nowhere to go.
