Hey all,
I am trying to plan for a place to stay for the festival and am having some trouble. I went through the festival website today and got the numbers for the youth hostel and the condos there and called them. Bad news. Both are totally sold out.

My friends and I don't really want to camp or stay in a sauna, so my question is, does anyone know any pensions, condos, yeogwans, etc. nearish to the festival site (within a 15minute drive)?

Any tips, links, or phone numbers would be much appreciated.

Thanks!

Last year we stayed in a lovemotel in Jukjeon about a 15 min walk from where the festival buses left from. It was about another hour from there. Not ideal, but very comfy

Last year i took a 120,000 Won cab ride home... The lack of sufficient transportation after the show was really frustrating.

15 minute drive? SOL. The nearest place with those kinds of things is Icheon - about 25 minute drive. As I said in my PM, you could try Baegam, but don't hold out much hope of finding something there.

Hey,
Thanks for the ideas and thanks for your PM. I haven't had time to think about this one for a few days.

We tried calling some love motels around the area today (called six). All sold out.

Are now at a bit of a loss as to what to do as we don't want to buy tickets until we have a place to stay but we can't seem to find that.

Anyone know of any places with available rooms?
Thanks!
