DDungDDang FamilyRecords of a Remodel - The IKEA Bathroom Project
Hello? This is the Ddungddang family. Remodeling is so hard that I said I'd never do it again, but they say humans are animals of forgetfulness, right? Before I knew it, I'm remodeling again. This time it's a detached house, no less! I'll be posting a detailed review on YouTube. I'll write out only the parts that need to be left in writing. When I looked into remodeling, the toilet (bathroom) was just too small. The previous resident apparently lived without even a sink
Hello?
This is the Ddungddang family.
Remodeling is so hard that I said I'd never do it again,
but they say humans are animals of forgetfulness, right?
Before I knew it, I'm remodeling again.
This time it's a detached house, no less!
I'll be posting a detailed review on YouTube.
I'll write out only the parts that need to be left in writing.
When I looked into remodeling, the toilet (bathroom) was just too small.
The previous resident apparently lived without even a sink...
Since this is a remodel without changing the structure,
while wondering what to do with this small bathroom,
I tried designing it in 3D at IKEA.
A small bathroom with a strange layout and a needlessly large window...
It looks a bit odd because the shower faucet isn't showing,
but the shower faucet and toilet were purchased separately as American Standard products.
If you design it like that, the purchase list organizes itself automatically too.

The small washbasin and cabinet could be installed by hanging them on the wall, but
that felt somehow unstable.
So, to add legs at the front only, I bought cabinet legs as an extra.

During installation, the drain trap didn't match Korea's standard size, which caused a lot of worry.
That's because the part that goes into the drainpipe doesn't fit, so it won't go in.
But if I used the drain trap typically used in Korea,
then the drawer wouldn't fit.
After much deliberation, I cut the front part of the connection to reduce the width,
and fitting that adapter in lets it install without any problems.
(It's the rubber part that goes into a typical drainpipe.)
Done!
It's dark because the lighting isn't installed yet,
but the installation was completed perfectly, exactly as planned.
But there's one more bathroom...
And I finished that one beautifully with IKEA too.
Once it's done, I'll do an online housewarming on YouTube, so look forward to it.
Bye~
