Amazing footage. Your friend did a great job.

I went out drinking somewhere in Korea back when for a TL meetup. This made me look up lilsusie's blog post on it out of nostalgia.

Drinking in Korea is really fun. The drinking culture there is social, and the goal is to have a good time, not be all bro and get fucked up. I got fucked up anyway, though.

@OP: Does your friend have other videos? Those two were incredibly well done and I'm curious what else he's worked on.

Great videos. Reminds me of some great times in Hongdae (as well as some not so great nights). Korea is the best place in the world to party.


However, the fight part reminds me why i tend to hang out with Koreans rather than many foreigners in Korea. So many dickhead bros. I wish the military curfew extended to dickhead teachers who can't responsibly consume alcohol as well.

I'd love to go Korea for a week or so.. How much should one bring for shopping, hotel and clubnights? 1,5k€? More? Are the prices comparable to any European city? I live in Stockholm where a standard 4cl drink/shot costs about 12-15€ and a beer like 5-7€.

Thanks in advance

Ugh. This is the kind of fucked up hedonism I escaped when I came to Korea.

The magic of the Korea isn't in these videos (although I did enjoy Club Cocoon when I went). It's before all that stuff, when you are with your friends, relaxing and eating and drinking.

Fucking waygooks man.

EDIT: That aside, the video is very cool and I seem to have completely missed all the street performances whenever I've been

lol @ the fight gj english teachers bringing the US to hongdae hahaha

this video was awesome. really well shot i went to hongdae probably a dozen times but never saw this kind of street stuff going on. looks fun

Im curious too. Was there some kind of special event going on at the time of filming? Ive also hardly ever seen the random public performances and dont know how representative the video really is in that regard.

Um, in my experience of living here some Koreans are no better when it comes to drunken fights/shouting/puking everywhere etc. I've seen some incredibly immature drunken behavior on both sides, so it's kind of annoying to see people making blanket statements like 'Fucking waygooks man.' Not all of us 'waygooks' are the same you know.

Well, stereotypes are rooted in reality. Plus, the "good" ones are much less impressivew than the type that brawls. =|

I lived in Hongdae all this past summer. The footage your friend captured out front of Book (or 1300K) really represents the spirit of Hongdae. Guys would always be giving away free energy drinks there and I would just grab a couple of bottles of Soju and chill listening to the live music.

The fighting is really dumb but as NeverGG pointed it out it's not 100% foreigners at fault.

Also lol at the Turkish guy not getting let in the club and saying "I'm fucking Korean!". Poor guy.

Overall the video is really well done and I'm going to just send it to people in the future when they ask me what it was like.

Although a 3rd video showing Hongdae during the day would be pretty cool. Especially some footage of the free market.

Hongdae is really polarized between its daylife and nightlife but both are pretty interesting.
