an actual grind house would be tough to start in seoul. it's all apartments and getting a nice 2 to 3 bedroom apartment in a relatively nice area can be 6k to 10k. my aunt's place is a 3 bedroom place in ichon, which is ok but not gangnam would be 18k/month if she didn't buy it (i guess it's beccause it's top floor)

I'd be interested in something like this. I still need to get up to Walker Hill at some point to play live here.

If you go in two months approx i´ll be in Seoul

You can go to live with a family using this web. www.homestaykorea.com.
Prizes are around 800US$/month.

There are the option to go to a "home" (sorry for my english) named Hasook-Jib , its a residence with individual rooms, shared bathroom and kitchen, the price is around 500,000.00 Korean Won/month.

Hey guys,

I arrived in seoul a week ago. I'll be studying here for one semester till mid June.
I'm interested in meeting up for a beer possibly like sunday nite?
I live in sichon.

Can you guys recommend any clubs where I can meet girls who like foreigners, and are generally open and can speak english ?

I've just been to fly bar in sichon, occult 2 (small bar), and roccoco club in itaewon. Thx!

how is roccoco club? i kind of wanted to go there since it was right next to the IP Boutique hotel which i was staying at one time i was there, but i dont like going out in itaewon. Prefer gangnam and hongdae

lots of girls speak english though, its not that difficult to tell who they are by looking at them.



edit back above poster ^^^ that pillow bar?? is it Oi? in hongdae?

reading this gets me soo excited for this summer

two words for you, my man. internet. dating.

Itaewon is generally the place for foreigners to meet Korean girls, but I can't really say that much about it.

I actually frequented a place called JJ Mahoney's in the Hyatt hotel near Itaewon. It's a really classy place with live band and techno DJ. Somewhat of an older crowd - 24+, but a lot of the girls speak english and there are a fair amount of foreigners. Plus, if your young and decent looking, you got an edge when it comes to hitting on these girls since some of the male clientele are kinda old.

Downside is that drinks are 15000won+, but no cover. My friends and I usually pound a Soju and a Cass before heading in.

TBH - I would generally stick with Gangnam and Hongdae. I have a white friend who speaks almost no korean and he has moderate success at some of the more trendy clubs like Heaven, Eden, or NB.

hahaahaha

fellow korean here. well ne can also mean like "what? or excuse me" depending on your voice tonality. I read "jook uh leh" and was thinking like, "What does that mean?" until I actually started saying it in my head over and over again and then AHH I see.

yeah in Korea, under no circumstance can you really ever fight back with someone who's significantly older than you. just gotta bow your head, say sorry and walk away.

didnt you know you were korean mr obey the odds.

but yeah, in a nutshell, what he said

bear jew, you korean too?

yup korean american, my mother lives in korea.

cool lol. at least I can be happy that I'm losing pots to a korean when I play you on ftp.

Lol, I probably run hot vs all koreans. I have a bad memory, is your 2p2 sn the same as ftp?
