Hi

I just moved to Wonju. I play chess (about 1400 ELO) and have learned the basics of baduk and jonggi. Is there a club for any of those three games in or near Wonju? Any specific parks or coffee shops to hang out in to pick up a game? Anything more organized (patient and bilingual members are a plus but not needed)?

FYI I speak survival Korean at best (but am learning).

Thanks

Out of desperation I'm giving this a bump. Mods, if this violates TOS (TOSs are long and boring reads), I apologize. I'd just really like to find a partner/club.

I'm moving there shortly so I could play a game or two.

Also, I might point out that it is easy to play those games online. Just go to your favorite online game website and they'll have more than enough willing opponents.
