Best place for cheap house stuff?

Hi, I'm Dilnoza from Uzbekistan, studying at 성균관대학교 almost 4 years now. I will move to new 원룸 soon and need to buy many things like dishes, cleaning things, maybe small furniture. I always just go 다이소 or 편의점 for small things, but for bigger or cheaper stuff, not sure where is best. Anyone have tips? Where do you all get house stuff low price, maybe secondhand too? Not want to waste money for only 1-2 years.

Hi, I'm Kamola from 서울과학기술대학교, I just moved to new 원룸 last month. For cheap things like plates or hangers, 다이소 is best, everywhere has it. But for bigger things, I used 당근마켓 app. Many people sell used stuff, sometimes really new, very cheap. Also, sometimes in university Kakao group, some leaving students give away or sell their old things. I bought my desk and chair from there, only 20,000 won. For new things, IKEA is good but more expensive. I think for short time, better buy used.
