I'm meeting someone in Bundang on Christmas Eve, and I'd like to go somewhere really elegant, preferably with champagne. I'm clueless about Bundang, living out in the sticks in Cheong-ju, but any advice about restaurtants or interesting places to go in Bundang would be appreciated. It's Christmas Eve, so money isn't an issue.

I really like Jeongja but I don't know how it'll be during Christmas Eve. It's a nice area with a ton of little specialty restaurants and right off of the Tancheon river, which is good for a little walk, but cold this time of year. There's a nice wine bar near Toni & Guy that has a decent selection, tho' I've never looked for champagne.

There's an (I think) Italian restaurant very close to that looks very nice (but I've never eaten there) that has about a billion plants inside. Looked like a greenhouse every time I've passed it, so just look for the place that looks like something out of Little Shop of Horrors.

Stay away from Jeongja and those cute little cafes that they have. I went to one once with my old girlfriend.

Nachos = 23,000

lemonade = 13,000 (maybe it was only 9,000. the beer might have been 13,000)

and the pasta dishes started out at about 44,000 a plate. Yeah, some of the restaurants in Jeongja.

There's a really fancy sushi buffet right near Seohyun Station. Er, what's it called? Maybe it starts with a "G." Like Grim____ Crap, I forgot. I'll have to get back to you. I'd check out one of the Indian joints, if you're into that.

Check out a place in Jeongja dong called 'Savini' it used to be about a four star buffet style place. The last time I was there, they were undergoing some kind of remodeling. I don't know how it is now, but kind of classy, huge selection of wines, some champagnes and a Hilton style buffet, but now it might all be different after the changes.
