Though Gyung ju isn't big, but there's many things to see and I agree that Busan is enough to look around 1 day or 2 days.
There are some youth hostels in gyung ju, but most of them are for students' group, not for individual. I think we should take a cheap B&B (Breakfast and Bed) in Gyung ju.
In Busan, as far as I know, youthhostel is cheapest. But it costs 28600won for 1 person of a dormitory. But we can stay Korean style Sauna instead of youthhostel. It cost about 8000won for one time. We can't ask them to keep our stuffs. Just for one time.

I'm looking for some information about accommondaion in Gyung ju and Busan
This is web for one accommondation in Gyung ju
http://www.kjstay.com/index_.html
[1000won = 1 dollar]
They say one person for Korean traditional style room (it means there's no bedroom) is 20000won and adding one person, needed 5000won. So for two person, it just cost 25000won!!! But we should share bathroom BUT REAL BACKPACKER DOESN'T CARE IT. THE MOST IMPORTANT THING FOR THE REAL BACKPAKER IS CHEAP AND VALUABLE!!! (if you can't bear it, you can choose room with bathroom, 30000won for 2 person)
And Youthhostel in Busan cost 28600won for one person a day. And busan is quite expensive comparing other city, not as much as Seoul. But there is well -arranged transportation, we can save our time and money for moving. Even though Gyung ju is cheap, but we'll face a problem of transportation. Many visitors use taxi for their journey.
And I think you need at least 400 dollars for 10 days. D***! I've spend 600 dollars for 18 days in C.H.I.N.A. during my backpacking. AND I'M SURE THAT YOU CAN SAVE YOUR MONEY in 400 dollars!!! (if we sleep at Korean Sauna in Busan, we can save accommondation fee. Cause it just cost 8000won for 24 hrs and there's a big hall for relaxing and sleeping And One meal cost 5000won (5 dollars) here.
