It's time for the 8th annual Boryeong Mud Festival!

Fun, sun, girls in bikinis, the beach, and lots and lots of mud.

Anyone else going this weekend, or end of next week?

My big ass will be there. I'm currently lamenting not having shoes that I'm willing to sacrifice, my size 13s are waaaaaay to rare, but I can't walk around barefoot or buy new shoes- what to do?!?

BTW: how is everyone going? I'm using adventure Korea

Criminy! 180 people from 1 group alone! Will there be enough mud to go around??? As it appears to be raining this weekend (yahoo weather), probably, but still... More importantly, will there be enough food to go around? Perhaps all who are interested should agree to bring something and we'll have a BBQ, tailgate style.

I signed up a long time ago with adventure korea, but apparently that doesn't hold your seat. The seat is only confirmed after you pay, so I found out just this week that I was booted! I want to go... is anybody else going solo?

I went a couple of years ago and it was good times all around. Probably one of the best things I did in Korea. The kind of odd thing was that the waves were pretty big and the lifeguards would not let people swim in the ocean.

I guess it is because Koreans dont really swim but my friends and I were in no danger of drowning. Kind of annoying.

This mud festival started out with great promise, but sadly went straight downhill once it became a unisex thang. What a stupid, stupid waste of a good idea. It should be strictly segregated into three areas:

Area 1: Single Girls in Mud (and on acid)

Area 2: Single & Married Guys Sitting on Sofa Chairs, Drinking Beer & Looking at Girls in Mud

Area 3: Families with Toddlers in Mud

I'm heading out with the Adventure Korea group as well. See you all there.

Great information.. been wanting to go there for years. I'll be back in Korea in a week - just in time for possibly going the weekend after this!

Hey guys

I`m having to head down on the sunday due to work ( damn them). Was just wondering if its still worth going? Also, do a lot of people still hang around on sundays and is there still sufficient mud!?

we're on our way there right now. From busan we stopped in daejon tonight and we're out the door of our yogwon in about 45mins (we snuch our dog in heheheh...)
apprently we have a minbak right on the beach for like, 50gs. pretty good i guess. a friend made the reservation.
I suppose we shouldn't count our chickens before they get the worm.

I've been to Boryeong, and it sucked enough; so why add mud I ask? Why?
