Cultural Context
When Koreans hunt for 아파트, 평면도 is essential — real estate apps like 직방 and 다방 display floor plans alongside price, and Koreans compare layouts like '3베이', '4베이' (3-bay, 4-bay, referring to how many rooms face the sun). '판상형' (flat/bar-shaped building) vs '타워형' (tower-shaped) floor plans are a common discussion point because each affects ventilation and light. The word combines 평면 (flat plane) and 도 (diagram).
