Brilio.net - Moving away and living in a boarding house is a common choice for many people who work or study far from home. Kos is a place to live that is practical, flexible, and the price is also affordable. Lodging usually involves renting a room or small unit equipped with basic amenities such as a bed, desk, and bathroom. However, there are also boarding houses that only provide space.
One of the advantages of boarding is saving the time and effort required to prepare and maintain household facilities. Because most of the public facilities such as cleaning and maintenance are taken care of by the boarding house owner or manager. Apart from that, boarding houses also open up opportunities to build social relationships with people from various backgrounds and regions.
Nowadays, finding a comfortable and suitable boarding house is no longer easy. Need competition with other prospective tenants. Moreover, property prices such as houses are no longer cheap, so many people prefer to live in boarding houses.

How could it not be, in a chat that was shown, the owner said that all his boarding house tenants were students from the medical faculty (FK). So, only FK children are accepted into the boarding house. The woman was rejected because she was not FK's child.
"I want all FK children, bro. Sorry, bro," wrote the mother in the chat.
