Just curious if there are many gyms in Seoul, in Korea in general. If there are, how much do they usually run for membership,etc.

thanks.

Yes, there are heaps of gyms in Seoul (can't comment on the rest of Korea). They start at around 50,000 won per month for some basic cardio machines and weights, and go much higher (up to 150,000 won/month that I've seen) for a huge gym with multiple floors, saunas, and group classes. I could be wrong about the lowest price, but that's what my basic gym is if I pay for 3 months at a time in cash. Gyms are pretty damn expensive in Korea unfortunately.
