Hey all, just wondering how much water you guys recommend drinking in this Korean humidity. I know that usually it's like 8 cups a day or something, but I guess it's not taking into account how stinkin hot it is here.

You should drink about 2 liters of water a day to replace lost water per day. However, dietary recommendations are 3 liters per day. I worry also how much water I should drink a day as I exersise quite often even in this heat.

The Mayo Clinic has a lot of good information.

People worry too much about water consumption.
