So it looks like my husband and I will be heading to Gwangju next month. Yay! I've already looked at tons of the old Gwangju threads, but I was wondering if anyone had any other advice/suggestions for wintertime fun for newbies. Or is anyone else headed out that way soon?

Gwangju!! The only thing I would recommend would be heroin. Lots
and lots of lovely heroin.

Mepreridine is much better - it's synthetic and won't get you into trouble with the local constabulary.

See you at the butterfly festival in Hampyeong. One second thought... forget it. Wink

Unfortunately, I get grossed out by needles and blood. If I didn't, I'd probably have gone to school for nursing and be making $30/hour by now.

Please, Gwangju isn't drug-inducing.

There have been a ton-and-a-half of threads about Gwangju, so look through those to get an idea about what's in the city, where to go, and what to do.

"Wintertime fun"? Well, it's a little chilly down here but not much of a wintertime. It'll snow a couple times, but that's about it.

Winter will be a good time to just try out the different restaurants and other indoor activities. Once spring rolls around you can travel to the nearby attractions.

Quite frankly OP, I'm shocked they would allow someone with your shady past into the country.

Did I miss something here? What is shady about Classydame? I looked through her short posting history and saw nothing to indicate anything shady. Do you know the OP personally? And if so, don't you think it is a little petty to be making a comment like that?

I'm going at the end of the month too! Too early for me to Private message you, but if you want to message me we could talk about meeting up for some wintertime activities. Let me know!
