Nightlife in Seoul, South Korea (Part 1)

The nightlife in Seoul, South Korea is certainly a little different from what one might be used to in countries such as the UK, USA or Australia for example. With emphasis on singing for example, things are very different.

Singing rooms (known as Norebongs in Korea) are very popular with Koreans and they are rooms which you use just for your own small group of friends or work colleagues. After a few drinks in bar or a meal in a restaurant, heading to a singing room is very common.

A lot of Seoul nightlife, as well as based on singing, is based around food. People often spend all evening in restaurants and other eating establishments and a lot of alcohol is often included. Friends of mine recently sent freight to China and then headed to Seoul and they were within a few hours dragged into a singing room. It's unavoidable almost in Seoul.
