Once you were fully moved in, which Korea bill was the most annoying to set up properly?

Rent is the obvious one, but I mean the monthly stuff that only becomes your problem after the first couple of weeks. Which bill gave you the most trouble in Korea, utilities, internet, maintenance fee, gas, electricity, something else? I am curious what people ended up automating, what still gets paid manually, and what was way less straightforward than it should have been.
