Fun and entertainment South Korea

There are several different programs depending on the day of the week, featuring pansori, samulnori, sungmu (monk dance), sword dance, classical music and more... The performances are of the highest quality, heartfelt and beautifully staged by the country's most renowned troupes. The performances are intense and charming. If you want to find out more, note that explanations in English are given on screens (which is a real plus). There's also a similar theater in the city of Gyeongju (Gyeongsangbuk-do).

It could hardly be more charming. Rising up on a small hill, this café evokes a cabin in the trees. The outdoor terrace is beautifully flowered and in the evening, many small lights come to give a little more magic to this place. Once inside, the decoration is just as charming and blends wood, a museum of vintage objects and vegetal touches. On the menu coffee, tea or juice and especially buns, pies, cakes and other sweet delicacies. They even offer jams and small seed cakes to take away.

One of the most sought-after cafés in the area, if not the capital! This is hardly surprising, given the enchanting setting and delicious pastries. Nestled in an elegantly renovated old mansion, you can sit on the floor in the traditional way, or opt for tables, indoors or out. The menu offers a variety of hot and cold drinks, as well as delicious and original pastries, breads, pizzas and sandwiches. For a pleasant moment at any time of day, but watch out for rush hour.

This popular café is decorated in a modern yet sober style. The best view of the city and the sea is through the window. The best part is the large terrace (very popular), from which you can enjoy a splendid sunset. Come and enjoy the view while sipping a delicious Dutch Nana Latte, a surprising Sweet Potatoe Latte or a slice of cake. You're sure to be charmed by this place, which really makes us feel like we're on vacation!

A very good cosy jazz bar with concerts from 21 am to 23 pm, sometimes at 18 pm. A classic.

This place smells like a party! We love the decoration and layout: at the centre of the establishment is a stage that welcomes artists every evening. At the top, surrounding this stage, balconies take place. This is where the tables are located in order to drink (cocktail, wine, beer, champagne...) and eat while not losing any crumb of the show below. It's well thought out and very charming! A small drawback (nothing is perfect), the prices are quite high because the price of drinks takes into account the artists' performances.

On the second floor of a building along the river, in the city centre, this tea salon offers traditional teas (you will be told how to drink them), Korean spirits, and even beer, all in an old style. There are many cinemas in this area.

Under subdued lights every Friday and Saturday from 10pm, notes of jazz and blues resonate. When there is no concert, you can choose the next disc from the huge wall discotheque. It is above all a pub, but it also offers a selection of small dishes (grilled beef, pasta...) Music is king but drinks are a little expensive. Nevertheless, it remains a very good place, certainly one of the best in the city. Ideal for music lovers looking for good music. We really like this intimate and musical place.

The perfect place for Asian manga and comic book fans. Here, we discover and appreciate a great variety of them (but also various board games). Everything is designed to have a pleasant and cocooning time with your favorite comic book/manga series. Indeed, you can lie down on padded benches or curl up among the blankets and cushions. Need more peace and quiet? it is possible by opting for one of the private rooms. For a small extra charge you can also eat with typical Korean snacks.

A bar and café that's a victim of word-of-mouth, it's always busy! And it's easy to see why. The interior of the establishment is relatively simple, so as not to steal the spotlight from the magical, magnificent ocean view. On the terrace, one floor up, there's a vast lawn area with poufs, for chilling out to the max! This beach bar is super hype! Go there in the evening to sip a cocktail to the sound of house music and the atmosphere becomes even more trendy and pleasant.

Korea House is a restaurant featuring Korean folk dance performances. The restaurant offers an authentic experience of Korean culture, with traditional Korean dishes and quality service. Guests can enjoy dinner or lunch while watching traditional dance performances. The show highlights Korean folklore and offers a glimpse into the country's rich culture. Customer reviews are mixed, with some enjoying the food and show, while others are more reserved about the food.

This pure souche bar is very popular, with true chapeau hat Texan and cowboy boots dancing up the country. A not to be missed.

This centre hosts quality shows and festivals, and regularly makes interesting films.

One of the best escape games in the country. Varied levels of difficulty to suit everyone, magnificent themed rooms with carefully designed, sometimes even frightening, settings. Gripping stories with charismatic characters await you. Between two and up to eight people rack their brains and have to get out of the room in the allotted time (usually an hour). An excellent activity to do with friends, you'll remember it for a long time! We really like this place.

If you are looking for a gentle break, you've come to the right place. In a simple setting, this café offers incredibly succulent homemade pastries. Nut tartlet, chocolate cake, vanilla milk cream roll or a very good seed bread. Enough to satisfy any greedy person. To accompany all this, the eternal coffees and teas are served. A place all in finesse and simplicity but which shines by its great pastry qualities. We highly recommend it!

This bar is very popular in the neighborhood. The decor certainly plays a part in its success. The atmosphere is very "rich English gentleman's club", with dark wood furniture and upholstered leather seats. On the menu, there's plenty of alcohol (cocktails, beers, wines, champagnes, whiskies and other liqueurs), but also a few dishes (cheese platter, fruit platter, chicken, prawns, pizza...). Even if the prices aren't cheap, this bar is still a great place to enjoy a drink or two.

A chic, luminous and trendy decoration. Gangnam with a capital G! And the prices have been affected. You can enjoy good pasta dishes, risottos and other salads (very generous portions). As far as drinks are concerned, you will find mostly champagnes (overpriced) and tasty cocktails (much more reasonable). Even if it's not the most affordable outing you can do in the capital, the atmosphere is really top-notch and will leave you with really good memories. For an outing in pure Gangnam style.

This is where you come if you want to put a little rock'n' roll in your releases! This bar, pub, restaurant is run by lovers of the musical genre. The decoration is appropriate: the walls are black and covered with posters of the Rolling Stones or the Beatles. You can eat there (pasta, pizza, salads...) but above all have a drink. You can choose whisky, beer or cocktail! We suspect that here the atmosphere will be very good, punctuated by quality music. Among the events offered by the brand, this one is the most popular: 3+1 beer offered!

If you want to tour the best bars, pubs and nightclubs in Hongdae or Itaewon, then join the Seoul Pub Crawl. Since 2014, the band has been offering young people and partygoers from all over the world crazy nights of sharing and good mood. Entrance is free, 4 drinks are offered, you don't have to wait in line, T-shirts and discounts galore... It's THE good deal for small budgets who still want to enjoy the Korean "night life". You can hardly find a better option.

This intimate bar with its muffled light is a landmark for fans of rock and blues music from the 70s and 80s. Decorated with the vinyls of the owner, Kyu Nam Jo,who has made a name for himself with his incredible record collection, it feels like in a friend's living room with a touch of vintage. Kyu Nam Jo continues to play his favorite tunes himself every night, while his wife serves drinks and popcorn at will. Attended by Europeans and Seoulite hispters. Music lovers are highly recommended to take a little trip there, pleasure guaranteed!
