Ji-min received an eviction notice - help us catch up on rent

A termination letter arrived last week. Ji-min needs $750 to clear the arrears and stay housed in Suwon.

Following a long illness in the family, Ji-min fell 5 months behind on rent. Last Thursday a termination letter was taped to the door, and the amount owed is $750. The landlord was understanding for a while, but has now been clear: if the arrears aren't cleared by July, the family must leave. There are a toddler and a baby at home. Moving would mean new schools, a new commute and no deposit to put down anywhere else. Ji-min has started working two part-time jobs, and is applying for help from local services, but nothing will arrive in time without the rest of the gap covered here. The money will be paid directly to the landlord and I'll upload the receipt once it's done. Where the $750 goes: • First month of rent as a buffer: $540 • Utilities in arrears: $80 • Late fees and court costs: $130 Even a small gift gets used right away and I'll thank you myself. - Hye-jin

Updates from Hye-jin

  1. Good news. Because of your gifts ($156 in total) I made the first payment toward first month of rent as a buffer. Still a way to go but it feels less lonely.

  • Your post was clear and honest. My neighbor had a similar thing happen so this one hit home. Thinking of Suwon!
