How is it? How old do you have to be to get into most clubs? I'm 17, but in Korean age I think I'm 19 ('87). Do they check ID?
Is it like in the Western culture where you can meet someone, hook up, etc, or is the whole clubbing mentality a bit different?
How about drinks? How much do they cost? I know it would obviously vary between the clubs, but give me a general range. I'm not loaded so I probably won't want to go to a place that serves only $9 cocktails.
I feel very strange asking this question here... but I don't know where else to post to get responses from Koreans (or those that have or do live in Korea, like rekrul, Legionnaire, etc) to something in English.

You have to be 20 korean age to get into the club. That means you have to be born in 85' (MAYBE 86).
Theres two styles of clubs. Hip-hop club and booking club.
I think it is much like western culture. Some girls are there to just dance and have fun and drink, some girls are there searching for a man they can date long term and want to get/give out phone numbers, and some are just sluts. Some are also all 3 combined.
At hip-hop clubs its basically very much the same as western clubs, bars, loud music, dance floor, seating around the dance floor for drunks, and two levels. Drinks in these clubs (cocktails/beers) are around 5-6,000 won (5 bucks). The music is mostly western hip-hop and some korean hip-hop.
Booking clubs you go with a group of guys, pay an exuberant amount for whiskey, beers, and a dish of fruit for your table. The waiters then bring girls to your table and sit them next to you all night long. The girls can get up whenever they want and they will drink your whiskey and beer. There are tons of tables in these clubs around the dancefloor and also private rooms if you want. The music is hip-hop and korean music, but mostly korean music. These clubs it's very very very very hard to meet girls if you can't speak any korean, but it's possible as long as you pay them attention and aren't shy. You will pay like 100$ per person atleast if you go. Girls often times get in free or for much much less. Each waiter at the job has a responsibility of filling up 3 tables worth of girls every night pretty early on, so they often have a long list of phone numbers of girls that they just call up and beg to come to the club that night for free and get free drinks.
So hip-hop clubs are more like just about physical attraction if you want to meet a girl, theres barely any talking and it's just too hard because it's so fucking loud. It's just drink dance drink dance drink dance. Korean girls will never ever make the first move (unless it's late and they are extremely drunk), you have to be slightly aggressive and show confidence. Booking clubs are much more about conversational skills. It's a pain in the ass finding a girl who can speak decent english. Often times you will go through 2-3 girls who just sit down and you try to make conversation and they just get up and leave before you find a girl who can speak eng that will stay for a while atleast. Unless of course its very late, then the girls just stay even if you can barely talk to them haha.
Some shitty hip-hop clubs you will be able to get into, but big ones like NB you won't get in because they always check ID, especially of white people. Most booking clubs you will be able to get into, except the best one BOSS because they check ID.

If you know a girl then take her to a club and drink it's EXTREMELY easy.

Rekrul, are you still in Korea?
Anyway, where are some of the good clubs that don't really check ID?
Where can I get a fake ID, and how much is it usually?
Next time I come to Korea I'm gonna party like crazy ~_~.
One last question, when does the club usually open/close? When is it the most crowded?
In terms of dressing, would you be out of place if you don't dress "hip-hop"? I'm kind of into the dress shirt/jeans/blazer combo lately ~_~.

Why do ppl like hiphop all over the world? I never ceases to amaze me...

The songs--both their lyrics and beats--are geared towards freak dancing, which is what people like to do ~_~
