I'm from Daegu so I went to Spa Valley. It was worth the 20k, but not amazing. I've heard there are two in Geonju and they are better.

There's California ______(?) and one more. What's the other one called?

Which one is better? Thanks.

For anyone wondering I found out it's called California beach. The other one is smaller and mostly for children.

Well, I wonder how much influence this ad will have on Daegu's Spa Valley tourism: http://briandeutsch.blogspot.com/2009/06/spider-man-shoots-web-out-his-ass-woman.html

From what I've seen, 20K is cheap for a waterpark, and if it was worth it, that sounds like a pretty decent time. The two big ones in Jeollanam-do are over 40K in the summer.

One place wouldn't let me in because I'm a foreigner. That's what I think at least, but they told me it's because I have too many tattoos. I still think it's mainly because I'm a foreigner.

I can vouch for Spa Valley in Daegu, you get half off admission if you were born in the 1980's...so 20,000 won. A little small, so don't plan on spending more than 4 hours there. But the biggest ride there had a short line, Koreans are scared of heights I suppose.
