Google is your friend:

Quote:
From Hongik University, Exit 5

Go straight, you will hit a busy street, the one leading to Hongik University's Main Gate, cross the street and make a left

Walk straight until you reach Eoulmadang Gil, the main shopping strip in Hongdae. Make a right on this street.

You will go straight for about ten to fifteen minutes. Dr. Fish is on the 8th floor of the building across the street from the Luxury Noraebang (the one with large windows where you can see people singing and dancing).

Is it a club? Restaurant? Any good?

Was in Hongdae this past weekend and had a blast. Was at M2.

AFAIK, the Dr. Fish thing was a fashion that Koreans have grown tired of.....

Most of the places that did it have retired their fish (who didn't get enough to eat anyway as Koreans tend to have very little dead skin on their feet.....have you seen how they scrub themselves??!!) and moved on to whatever fad Koreans are into now......leeches, probably.

The above directions are to a Dr. Fish that has been closed down. Don't know of any others in Hongdae.

yeah, it closed down about a year and a half ago.

It used to be in the building that the 3 story Starbucks is in now.

You didnt miss much, it sucked anyway.

On a side note, all of the dr fish joints seem to have closed, or are closing now.

There was one in Myeongdong about 5 months ago, but it isn't named "Dr. Fish"
