What has happened to this place??!!!!!!

I went there on club night and the place was dead.
Just making an observation here; usually, it's 70 % foreigners 30 % Koreans. Last week, it was the other way around. Did they change owners?

The DJ was playing really shit pop songs too..Stayed there until 1:00am and then just hit the clubs.

I remember this place being packed to the rim with the regular crowd just 2 or 3 months ago.
What gives?

Sinchon has a club night? I thought that was Hongdae...

I think a lot of people go to "Mike's Cabin" these days. Owned by
an ultimate player. Usually lots of mighty whities there. Good music
and Alley Kat ale. Also, "Woodstock" across the street from "The Bar"
(which is actually called "Norae", "The Bar" is on the 3rd floor) is good
if you like oldies rock and an older crowd. Or, you could head on down
to some scintillating place like Jeonju and have pigs feet and a bottle
of soju. haha

I don't go there as often as I used to, but I was there last Friday and the place was bumpin'. You might have just caught it on an off night.

Check out Mike's Cabin. It's a lot of fun too. Also, it's a great place to take a date on a weeknight. They have a Nintendo Wii and a projector tv. A couple beers and an hour of Wii works wonders on a date!
