Hey Everyone

I just recieved an off from CDI in the satellite location "Pyeongtaek" (Sorry I did not get an address). I am scheduled to leave on the 4th of December.

EDIT: did some googling "http://hagwon.reliableteacher.com/chungdahm-learning-cdi-pyeongtaek-si-gyeonggi-do/"
Location: 830-2 Bijeon-dong, Pyeongtaek-si, Gyeonggi-do


I am wondering if there are more serious gyms in that area. Ideally I would want power racks, lifting platforms, and bumper plates something along these lines.

I am willing to travel 30-45 minutes! I did a search but most threads were about gyms in seoul.


I searched and read through some threads about Pyeongtaek and it seems like a 'fresh air out in the open' type of city. Seoul is also accessible by train which takes approximately 30 minutes? where as the subway would take over an hour?




Are there any other CDI'ers there (shoot me a pm)

Theres bound to be one or two mate. I live in Yongin and theres about half a dozen here and Pyeongtaeks' not that much smaller.

Best thing to do is ask one or two locals when you arrive..... Very Happy

Near the base in Songtan perhaps? I'm sure there are some decent gyms in Pyeontaek.

Pyeongtaek is pretty spread out... 30-45 minutes travel time could be the next town over.

Hey guys,

Thanks alot, more so I am worried about finding only cardio type gyms and not being able to find a more serious gym for weights like so
