I'm goin out alone because I don't much like the people I work with. Where should I go to have a good time? Not necessarily looking to get laid, and I'd rather not meet Americans and Canadians. I want to meet Koreans tonight.

So, Itaewon or Hongdae?

I always found Seoul Pub in Itaewon to be a good jumping off point when going out alone. Just stand at the bar, and you'll be talking to people within minutes.

You going to be alone? Koreans honestly don't see a lone foreigner and want you to join their group. Unless you look like Brad Pitt.

Don't speak Korean? Strike 2. Unless you want to go to a juicy bar in Itaewon where you get friendly company in return for buying 20,000 won drinks.

Your best bet is to get involved in clubs or groups with a mix of foreigners and Koreans.

But if you had to make a decision, I'd say Itaewon b/c girls are going to speak more English, yet you will run into a lot of westerners.

Oh, getting laid is a given. Just to expect anything classy. In fact, expect nothing but skanks.

I am pretty damn attractive to Koreans. I am told by many people that I am. I'm still kinda new to Seoul so I'm just going out to see what's up in this (in)famous Itaewon.

You don't want to meet Americans or Canadians so you want to go to Itaewon or Hongdae?
