Is it possible for a single E-5 in the army who has orders to Korea to reside off base in an apartment or in on base housing? Asking because I have a pet that I’m trying to keep with me.

No. There's an entire command sponsorship packet required to reside off post and bring a human family with you. They're certainly not going to put you on the economy for a pet.

Bringing your family to Korea! The Republic of Korea is a great place to serve and grow, personally and professionally, for both Soldiers and their Family members.

That's not going to happen. Even if it did happen, you wouldn't know until you were already over there and got that exception processed to live off base. You absolutely cannot live in any on post housing family housing without a family.

We all love our pets like family, but remember that bringing pets to South Korea is a privilege, not an entitlement.
