Rio's in Art Center is a pretty good place to meet westerners.
Whereabouts in Incheon?

Incheon is a pretty big place, what neighborhood are you in? Then we can narrow down where is easiest and best to go.

No live music, and it's pretty small, but it's always packed on a Fri or Sat, and pretty busy on other nights. Rio is a riot, and he has 3 phoenix darts machines. Lots of darts players there. There's a jukebox though.

I think that's near Woninjae or Yeonsu. Far south.

Bupyeong, Juan, or Arts Centre areas are more happening.

Every Thursday around 830 there is a Trivia night at G7 in Bupyeong. The place is packed with foreigners. Sometimes people come and don't have a team and they just get put onto a team, people are usually nice enough to offer a spot. I don't know the exact exits but I'll try to explain how to get there anyways: exit Bupyeong Station's main exit, you should find yourself next to a McDonald's, Duncan Donuts(I think), and KFC, look out towards the center square (not facing the mentioned fast food chains), you will see a Pizza Hut to your left, head that way, across the street (from pizza hut) there is a Pop Eyes Chicken, cross the street and to the right(of pop eyes) is G7, you should see foreigners walking in and out. Good luck, if anyone has better directions (like with the exits) post them.

There are actually 2 Bupyeong stations. One is for line 1 (dark blue), the other is for the Incheon line (light blue).

It's the same station, just happens to be where the 2 lines cross.

Yeah, G7 is your best bet. Next to Popeye's across the road from the
main exit from Bupyeong Stn. First floor. Thursday night is quiz night.
Lots of whites. Get there at around 8:00PM

For live music you have to go 2 stations up the Seoul/Incheon line
to Songnae Stn. Then ask the taxi driver for Hyundai Baekwajeom.
Rhythm and Blues has good beer and live music on Saturdays. It is
located behind Hyundai.
