I feel the need to go out drinking on Friday, but I don't know anyone in Nowon who does. Someone one throw me a line, please!

There are a lot of foreigners in Nowon, and a few hangouts. Some go to Dragon Bar, I was there last night. I am growing tired of it though. Mind you this is after 6 years of going there.

They have 2 dart boards and you can buy mixed drinks. The bottled beer is a bit expensive in my opinion and they don't have tapped beer.

I went to a place in Sanggye afterwards that had a dart board, draft beer and an ice bar. I liked it a lot. But, you had to fight off the tumble weed to find a seat. So if you are looking for people, it won't be there.

Nowon has a ton of hang-outs, but other than Dragon Bar it's not very easy to meet and make friends with other foreigners.

PM me if you want to hang out sometime,
Ryan

P.S.
No one goes to Nowon. Cool
If you don't have no won, go to Nowon. Laughing

That's a double negative, surely: if you have won, go to Nowon. Smile

I tried looking for the Dragon Bar a few weeks ago, but I coudln't find it. I'm honestly not much of a drinker or party animal, but I kind of miss the nights out from last time I was in Korea.

He's a reaaaaaaaaaaal Nowon man, sitting in his Nowon land, making all his Nowon plans for Nowon buddies.

If you wiki "douche-bag" you'll find a picture of Dragon, the schmuck who owns Dragon Bar.

We live in Junggye, but I hate Nowon. We go to Lotte Cinema and a couple of kalbi restaurants / noraebangs, and that's pretty much it. Stupid scene.
