What are you doing in Seoul? Isn't jamsil one of the baller areas?
I live right next to 경복궁 and 광화문. Do you know 경희궁이 아침 아파트? I was fortunate enough to get a really sick deal on this apartment. Top floor and no one ever goes on the rooftop, which has a pretty sweet view of the city.

I was told not to mention I play poker but after 8 months I decided, F it, I have enough friends I'll be honest about it.
For the most part I've been getting a lot of positive feedback. My friends/people my age have found it pretty interesting. There's only one girl I can think of who kept saying "it's just gambling" but she's pretty worthless

It's the language barrier that's hard. I have a tough enough time explaining it english.

Not only do they love gambling, we're a pretty hot tempered group of people = severe tilt issues. Heh, my old pokerself included

Oh for sure. Hongdae's an area I've only been to a few times. It's like a maze to me but the places I've been to have been pretty fun.
Have you been to the ice bar there?
