Going to visit Gwangju after a long absence. Wondering if things have progressed beyond the Speakeasy and/or Soul Train in terms of night spots in downtown. Assuming the area downtown between Migliore and Burger King is still the place to go at night. Any suggestions welcome. Thanks.

The only club I noticed that's new (but I've been gone three years) is Bubble bar, which for me is just so smoky that I find it unbearable (and that's saying something in Korea)

The bus terminal has some new stuff, I' not sure if you've checked that out.

I miss gwangju, great foreigner community, but so difficult to get certain things...had much more fun down there than up north for some reason. Winters are much more bearable too.

German Bar 1 and 2 (both downtown) are good spots on the weekends, #2 has a pool table and is running drink specials on the homemade house weizen and dunkels. Lately people have been at a club called Holic, on the same side of the street as Bubble, but closer to the subway station.

I second the German bar for good beer, Bubble bar is horrid (IMO), Speakeasy is nice and friendly.
