Editorial interest 82/100 Selection signal · not a rating of the site

A Korea-based service platform connecting foreign residents with local helpers for plumbing, cleaning, housing, boiler problems, and other everyday needs.

Landing page captured for the 2026-09-13 issue.

Field notes

The homepage is organized around locality selection and service requests rather than a general directory: the visible starting point is Iksan Sin-dong in Jeonbuk. Its service menu covers blocked drains, leaks, water supply, boilers, cleaning, and finding a room, while the language selector lists 25 options. The privacy workflow is unusually concrete for a small service platform: customer numbers are converted to temporary 050 numbers, reportedly retained for one week, and service history stays on the device.
