I have a friend visiting... any suggestions on things to do this weekend?

He has already been here so has seen all the typical sites (Hongdae night, Insadong, Palaces, Myeong-dong, N Tower, Itaewon). Having a tough time thinking of anything new for him to see that is worthwhile...

Has he been to Samcheong-dong yet? It just recently became a car-free zone on weekends.

There aren't that many shows this weekend. DGBD is having a CD release for Sotto Gamba, Ta is having one for Angry Bear, and Deerhoof is playing in Bbang with some really good local bands.

Coex sucks. If you're going to go in that direction, go to Time's Square.
