Pyeong

A pyeong (or pronounced as tsubo in Japanese, in Chinese) is a unit of the size of rooms or buildings in Korea, Japan, and Taiwan equal to 400⁄₁₂₁ square metres (3.3058 m2, 3.954 sq yd or 35.586 sq ft) and with the same symbolic word "坪". A studio apartment will generally be around 10 to 15 pyeong, a house somewhere around 50 or more, and the smallest of rooms, consisting of only a bed and a bit of floor space for students, will be as little as 1.5 pyeong.
