This is definitely off-topic. Does anybody know of sensory deprivation chambers in Seoul? Specifically, the water kind. - Budding novelist who needs to research this issue. Any stories would be appreciated.

Not heard of Joe Rogan, or his podcast. Seems that these water deprivation tanks may be quite uncommon since they use hundreds of kilos of epson salts.

I think he uses them to enhance his experience when he takes a lot of hallucinogenic drugs. Good luck finding THOSE in Korea...

Wouldn't have a clue where to look really, if there's a hippy community here then might be the best place to start. Not been in an SD chamber in a while, very useful though. Remember to shower beforehand!

I used them before in australia-no big deal just like floating in a big tub with no sound.

Sorry, I don't know but it reminds me of an old film called Altered States which left my mind reeling years back. It's still kind of trippy.
