I'm looking for someone who wants to play tennis in Bundang. I have played for about 10 years, but haven't picked up a racket in the last 4. I've got a brand new racket that I'd like to put to use. PM me if you're interested

Oh, and do I have to pay money to use the courts here? Anyone know of any courts near Seohyun, Imae or Sunae?

I'd like to play and I live in bundang. Yes, I've heard that you have to pay to play but I don't know where one is but I can try to find out.

If anyone wants to play in Mokdong, please let me know. There are not many free tennis courts in Korea. Some are members only. I think they usually charge 2,000 won to 7,000 won per hour per court. I haven't played tennis since back in high school, so I'm not very good. Crying or Very sad

tennis is free here..

you just need to find the apartment which has courts!

also rememeber koreans play tennis so you have to time it right..
usually the courts are booked in early mornings and evenings.
weekends all day, but they have a rule here.. ONE set per group
so you dont have to wait long..

To my knowledge, a lot of apartment complexes have set up a membership system so even the residents can't play for free. I know it sounds weird but that's the way it is for some places. That's why the entrance is often locked. Sometimes you can just sneak in and play though. Not many parks here have tennis courts. No wonder there are not many professional Korean tennis players.
