It is actually a private club. My friend got his membership a year ago. Just go to open events(thanksgiving for example) and schmooze and inquire about getting a membership card(or just call and ask). Eventually you will probably get one. I can't be more specific because I never actually went there.

Those of us with DoD ID cards have automatic membership. This past Saturday, I asked the manager who else is permitted to use the facility. He said annual memberships may be purchased for 250,000 won.

That's 250,000 won. Thanks for the query. I just went and fixed that post.

Back when the SK Won to US Dollar exchange rate hovered around 1,000 won to US$1, the membership cost was approximately 250 US Dollars.

They have a Xmas and Thanksgiving buffet open to everyone, but the food is subpar...way way subpar. Its turkey and stuffing, but its not even worth it. I've gone twice, and both times have been disappointed. I wont go again, ever. Supposedly their regular menu isnt that great as well, but I have no experience with that.

A group of us used to go all the time ... occasionally they would say something about a "membership" but we were never denied entry. This was back in 06/07, so maybe they tightened the rules? Though it probably helped that we were all so young and "good looking" Wink

Went last Christmas. Thought it was ok myself...going back on Xmas Day. You can ring and book for Christmas..no need for a membership...went a coupla weeks ago and just put our names down. If you wanted to book a table for 6 or more you have to pay in advance otherwise you can just ring and go.
