Any AA folks on this forum? I haven't been to a meeting in years and I'm looking to start again. I was curious about the AA meetings in Korean and having the option of more times and locations than what the English meetings offer at the USO. Is there a meeting list I can find online? I haven't been able to find any.

I figured those in AA would know just by mentioning the word "meetings" and a reference to them being held at the USO.

I thought everyone knows what AA is. Guess not.

Anyway, I'm still on the sauce and don't plan on slowing down anytime soon, so not sure about meetings. I'm curious to know if Koreans have AA meetings in Korea. I'd imagine that the social stigma of getting help for almost any type of treatment might make AA meetings less common in Korea than the west. I've never met a Korean who went to AA (or admitted to doing so, anyway). I have met a few Koreans who had to go to "John" school, though.
