About Pyeong
A pyeong (평) is the traditional Korean unit of floor area, equal to approximately 3.306 m² - historically derived from the Japanese tsubo, with which it shares the same value. Despite South Korea officially adopting square meters, pyeong remains deeply embedded in Korean real estate culture. Apartment listings in Seoul and Busan still commonly advertise sizes in pyeong, and a typical Korean family apartment is around 25-33 pyeong. One pyeong equals approximately 35.58 square feet.
About Square Thou
A square thou (thou²), sometimes called a square mil, is the area of a square with sides of one thousandth of an inch (0.0254 mm), equal to approximately 6.452 × 10⁻¹⁰ m². This tiny imperial unit is indispensable in precision engineering, PCB (printed circuit board) design, and manufacturing, where conductor widths, dielectric coating thicknesses, and tight machining tolerances are specified in thou. Wire insulation, thin films, and precision-stamped metal components are commonly described using this unit.
