| I once heard there was a mogyoktang at Incheon International Airport. Can anyone confirm this? Anyone been? How much is it? |

I think it's actually inside the departure terminal, past security and immigration, so you can't get to it unless you are leaving on a trip. I haven't looked around out in the main terminal on the departure level.
Maybe someone else has more info.

| I was at the airport last week at the arrival terminal and saw a sign for it. It should be accessable to anyone. I am pretty sure it is open 24 hours. I am not sure of the price, but it must be under 10,000 won. I am leaving Sunday; maybe I'll try it out. |

It's in the basement, land side (i.e. you don't need to go through security/passport control or anything) on the side of the airport where domestic flights leave from.
8,000 won, men only, 24 hours. |

| It is probably more for men only because more men travel on business. Women tend to bathe as a social occasion. Men more often go to ease a hangover or have a place to sleep. |

Still nothing, sorry!
If it's any consolation it's the worst sauna I've been to in Korea. |

Where are the good restaurants? I could only find BK and Korean cafereria crap. I certainly nope not to need an optician or to do laundry at the airport...but next time I am stuck at the airport, I will look for your "little office."  |
