I'm thinking of taking a late bus from Seoul to Busan on Friday night.. anyone up for some going out around Texas/Russian Town?

I probably wouldn't be there until late.. 10-10:30pm more or less.

Corona at the Family Mart? How much is that? Can you drink outside?

The atmosphere down there is great in the streets.. thats a good idea!

2,900 won! And you can drink it inside if it rains! (if two girls are working) If an old guy is there you gotta go outside, but it beats the 5,000 won sit down table places!

That whole area down there is a bit seedy...feels like you're hanging out in Itaewon.

I have great memories of Texas Street. A few not so great ones too.

I'd be down. I'd prefer the area around PNU though.

Kids going to the EFL conference?

mercury, are you the tall dude I saw jogging on the beach early Monday morning?

Pusan is a great town from what I saw in two days...took that tour bus and was glad I did...would have never been able to hit all those sights in one day for 8 bucks...wife and I were the only ones on the tour bus and I was even interviewed for the local PBS station.

didn't get my train ticket in time.. Embarassed the first available one I could get was 10pm at night arriving at 1am. Figured I'd better wait for another weekend and book in advance next time!

I think a good 5-6 people met up and had a good time though.

I had a great night out in the Russian area near Busan station last summer. I bumped into some decent Russian sailors. I met them in a nightclub called "Hollywood" or something. It was really sleazy but interesting all the same. I would be interested in another visit once it gets really hot.
