Editting in the much better OP from the other thread by FuRong:
With a lot of TLers leaving Seoul recently, I guess it's up to me to make this thread.
The Jinair OSL finals are on this Saturday, to be held in an outdoor plaza at the Seoul War Memorial Museum. Here are the details:
Place: Seoul War Memorial Peace Square
Date: Saturday 17th September
Time: 6pm KST
Cost: Free, obv
Who's playing: (P)JangBi vs (T)Fantasy
How to get there: The closest subway station is Samgakji (삼각지역) Exit #12, which is a transfer station between lines 4 and 6.
The plan: Depending on levels of interest, we could meet earlier for lunch and then head over to the venue, or just meet directly at Samgakji. Since it starts at 6pm, and there will probably be a large crowd, I think we should aim to be there by about 4pm. Of course, if others have better ideas then I'm open to suggestions.
Why you should come: Because it's (P)JangBi choking and losing another game playing in the fucking OSL FINALS. Also, the novelty of watching a terrorist get raped at a war memorial is sure to provide plenty of amusement for everyone except SKT fans. But wait, there's more! You have the chance to get on TV, and you get a lot of free stuff just for turning up. Just ask ggggbabybabybaby. And of course, you wouldn't want to hurt ESPORTS by being in Seoul and not coming, right? Right?

Hi! I'm going to be visiting Korea from 9/14 to 9/19, and I would LOVE to go see the star league finals game. I don't speak Korean, but I found this thread that was helpful:

Do you know which arena it will be at? And when the game starts? Hopefully we'll get the chance to meetup!

its at the war memorial in yongsan I don't know where you get ulsan from that
|
take the seoul metro to samgakji then walk there. ezpz.
|
I'm going to Seoul (where the finals is) FROM Ulsan (where I currently am). I never claimed the finals were in Seoul, sillies. Thanks for the metro info, I'll use that.
|
FML I thought the finals were in Ulsan... that would be kinda dumb.
|
I won't be able to make it but JangBang fighting!
|
I'll be in Seoul from late Friday night till Sunday night. I'd like to meet up with other TL people before the final, I'm staying a few blocks away.
There's two threads, in the other one Furong suggested all the TL people meet for lunch before the final. The war memorial seems like a cool place to check out in general (planes, tanks and other stuff) before the final.

Yeah, I didn't realise there was already a thread made for this. I guess we can just use this one.
So it seems like people interested in going are:
Me (FuRong)
only.her0
syst
jeremycarr
tenacity (from the other thread)
Blue[SKA]
Tomred87
Any other interested parties?

I'm certainly down for lunch. I'm going to need some co-teacher help with buying my train ticket for the morning of Sat, then getting to the area. Also gotta find some kind of hotel/motel/hostel, still looking for recommendations if anyone knows any.

Hostelworld.com is good if you wanna find a cheap hostel in Seoul, I've used it several times before.

Still available now

I'm going for sure. what is the plan for this?
I plan on being in Seoul around 12pm
For anyone watching their money and do not mind jjimjilbangs theres a good one at yongsan.
|
haha whats a jjimjilbangs? google search says bathhouse..I assume it's like a hawker center?
i think the plan is:
lunch somewhere near war memorial -> war memorial (to register?) -> check out the exibits while waiting for the final -> bask in psi storm goodness
|
Ok great! Looking forward to meeting everybody! Why don't we choose a time and place to meet for lunch, and then we can all head over to the arena together afterwards? Meet at samgakji gate 1 at 1pm?
|
Where do you guys plan on meeting up? I'm very interested in joining you guys.
|
samgakji gate sounds good
|
@only.her0: lol, a jjimjilbang is about as far from a hawker centre as you can get. It's like a public bath where you can stay overnight for a relatively cheap price. I dunno if there will be enough time to go to the museum, but it sounds like you're really interested in it. I've been there before and it's definitely worth checking out, but I dunno if everyone will want to go on that day. Also, I've been to the hostel where you are staying before, it's a nice place and the owners are cool.
@jeremy: that sounds good
@Tomred: Did you come to the Zero vs Flash MSL finals? Your name looks familiar.
|
Oh i see..just glanced at the wiki article. Looked like the museum was open access on google maps, I don't mind not going.
I'd prefer to hang out before the event anyway, we can chill and think of some funny signs to make lol
|
@FuRong yeah I was at the Zero Flash finals... I was the one that spoke Korean. Your name looks familiar too... but I can't quite remember who you were.
|
I'd love to exchange numbers with anyone meeting up (Korean phone numbers). I booked the same hostel, hero. Thanks for the suggestion. Where are we meeting up, and what time? I'm going to grab a train that gets in at around 12:30, then gotta grab the metro just two stops to samgakji, so I imagine I'll be out of that station around 1pm or so.
Msg me to exchange numbers!
Edit: I see it seems like we're meeting at the gate. Works for me!
|
I'm in Seoul until the end of December so I've been to some matches and I plan to go to many others including this one. I'm down to meet early for this.
Isn't it in Yongsan though? I told some people it was in that area and I planned to take them to the big tech store there before the games start. My number is 010-2330-0867
|
Jangbi! Anyone that attends is luckier than me!
|
So what's the plan guys? Are we meeting at 1pm at Samgakji station, or later on?
|
1pm at samkaji gate 1, I'll be there, look for a really tall guy
|
|
|
Wish I could be there ㅜㅜ
Have fun guys. I expect some good cheerfuls. Maybe one of you can even get a flag?!?!?!
For those of you looking for a hostel http://www.hostelbookers.com/hostels/south-korea/seoul/67046/
Is a pretty fun place. I've stayed there a lot. The owners are super cool and you can always eat with them for free if you're hanging around the hostel when they finish cooking. Plus its in Hongdae which is a pretty awesome place to be staying for nightlife stuff.
