There is probably loads of stuff posted about this, but if there is i can't find it!
Was just wondering the best way to go about meeting fellow foreigners? i don't think there are many at my school and i won't be living in the most popular area of Busan, I'm in the south east part of it. Any websites or suggestions would be great? Thanks!

Where in Busan will you be? Haeundae is in Southeast Busan and there are a lot of foreigners there.

Ahh sorry i'll be in the south west, not south east! I think it's in saha-gu, someone said that's the industrial part or something . Do you have anything information about there?

Don't worry too much about it! I personally know at least 10 foreigners who live there and there are plenty more. Many more than my area, Yeung-do.

You could try Busan Meet-up or just go to events. There are calendars on Koreabridge and Busan Haps online that have foreigner events in the city. Just show up and have a good time.

I moved to that general area last week (Hadan). It ain't that bad. Takes about 35 minutes to get to central Busan by subway, and just over an hour for Haeundae. I haven't seen many foreigners out here yet but I only just got here. There are loads of good restaurants and I've seen a few decent looking bars. I don't know much more aside from that.

I stay in Hadan too, there are quite a few foreigners around you'll notice.

Being in Saha-gu ain't that bad really, fairly close to Nampo-Dong, which is nicer than Seomyeon. Meeting foreigners in Busan won't be much of a problem, just head out to Kyungsung some evening.
