There's 9 adults and 7 small children so I have to get the best priced accomodation. Are the resorts in Korea very particular about occupancy numbers? I might want to stay one or two nights in the skiing resort so which resort around seoul would be the best? All of us are beginners. The kids have not done any skiing before. Would early December be a good time for us to come?
In addition I am also looking at serviced apartment in Seoul to accomodate our big family. Anyone knows of weekly rentals that have 2 bedrooms apartment ? Since its a big group we prefer to cook. any tips would be appreciated to help me plan our holidays.

What Koreans call 'Pensions' are very popular. Right off hand, im not too sure where they are in conjunction with the Ski fields...
However generally they are one or two large rooms, come with basic bedding minus the beds, but in the winter, Korea has heated flooring, which is just a treat for aching ski bones!
Pensions have a kitchen, and all cutlery etc... a bathroom, some come with TV's and other entertainment.
It's just a base cost, generally you dont have to pay per person.
I've only been to Bearstown ski field, there are many board/ski hiring places around that area, and ski instructors too...
One thing I would like to warn you about though is that the fields are over crowded, and can be a bit dangerous.. especially for beginners (more often than not the beginner field is tiny and all the routes merge into one at the bottom). It's fun though, and the kids can build snowmen at the sides if they get bored.
There are also sleds available for hire.
Early December Im not sure how much snow will be around at that time, I wasnt in Seoul that time last year... we did a fair bit of boarding in February and early March.
As for the Seoul Apartments, im not too sure what would be available to you on a weekly basis... generally places are rented out monthly. Perhaps you could approach one of the many guesthouses, and see if they could draw up some sort of plan for you. A friend of mine stayed in a guesthouse called 'Wind road' they were quite happy with it, but then im not sure on whether it's child friendly etc, perhaps you can search for it on the internet.
Most guesthouses would have a small kitchenette, minus the oven.
www.adventurekorea.com has some planned trips every couple of weeks or so, you could check them out, there is also a notice board etc there...

Well, most place is fixed rate regardless of numbers of occupancy, so even if you rent the two bad room apartment for a month and not used it fully, it will be saving for you.
However.... 9 adults and 7 small kids in ski trip to Korea for the first time doesn't sounds like a good idea.
Even though most people will be eager to please your party, it's quite different setting to get use to it.
If skiing is what you want to do most, I'd recommend you look somewhere else. Korea is more suit for adults, for it's best things to offer is sightseeing, shopping, and night life.

What might i call them? nicely..they *are* named Kyle David, Brandon JonGuard, Delaney Josephine and Hayden Ronald. they are named for kin. in simple terms theory i might upload...i swore i might by no potential tension a mini van too, yet there is not any way that 4 young ones will slot in an SUV conveniently esp once you're dealing with booster chairs. and to boot, mini autos are a helluva lot safer than SUVs...my young ones risk-free practices is extra considerable than my arrogance. and that i for my area dislike the insurance fees on SUVs besides. I rock my minivan LOL (it is not undesirable looking the two a 2004 Nissan Quest V6), unwell be upgrading in 2010 nonetheless :) the two oldest are teen and tween so momma gets her exciting wheels in a year.
