The nightlife scene in South Korea

Priscilla

Hello,

Having access to a good nightlife scene can be a determining factor for many expats upon choosing their next destination. Tell us more about the nightlife in South Korea.

In South Korea, what is the nighlife culture like: is it common for people to go out at night? Is there a big difference between the nightlife during the weekdays and weekends?

What are the most popular evening or nighttime activities (e.g. bars, nightclubs, shows, cultural activities, etc.)?

Is it safe to venture out in the evening and at night in South Korea?

Is there anything in particular that surprised you about the nightlife in South Korea?

Are there any apps or websites (or any other resources) that would help in staying informed about evening and nighttime activities?

Thank you for sharing your experience.

Nightlife is happening every night.  Wednesdays to Sundays most popular.

There is more on offer for males, but people can party nearly til daybreak most nights.

I've lived in Korea for over 7 years, and never in Seoul. My point is that in the less crowded cities, it's safe for girls at night.
