Overview

The Pyeong Calculator converts between square meters (㎡) and pyeong (坪), the traditional Korean unit of area measurement. While square meters are the official unit in Korean real estate, pyeong remains widely used in everyday conversations. One pyeong equals approximately 3.3058㎡. This tool helps you accurately convert areas for apartments, offices, and commercial properties.

Formula

Pyeong = Square meters (㎡) ÷ 3.3058
Square meters (㎡) = Pyeong × 3.3058

Example: 84㎡ apartment → 84 ÷ 3.3058 ≈ 25.4 pyeong
Exclusive area 59㎡ → 59 ÷ 3.3058 ≈ 17.8 pyeong
