Anyone know if this can happen? My buddy's coming on Friday at 3:30... traffic will be awful, right? Anyway, is there an airport limo bus from the airport to Haebangchon, or will he have to get dropped off at the subway and take it to Noksapyeong station?

Additionally, anyone know any fun stuff going on from October 9th to the 15th??

i just went to the airport last week, and on the way back i took the airport bus. His best options to get to haebangchon would be to take the bus that goes to the Hyatt, which is on the top of the hill just opposite of haebangchon (Kyungridan side) It would be walking distance. His other options would be Yongsan Station, or Myeong Dong.

Ah, Haebangchon, that dark corner with few direct buses. A walk up a staircase and across a bridge, or through a dirty tunnel to get to those that do pass by. A place where taxis grab passengers based on a racial heirarchy of black at the bottom and Korean at the top. Where underground PC bangs saturate a casual visitor with putrid odors after a brief step inside. A place where random pedestrians rant and rave into the early morning, and the few young Korean women who dare meet their boyfriends there face a slew of catcalls from a gauntlet of working class foreign men.

...but where, by the grace of the heavens, a burrito can be obtained within a span of 5 minutes.
