Anyone? Looking for a place as close to Itaewon as possible... and open late night.

Try pool halls. Some have them.

You could try searching for 탁구 클럽 (Takgu club, it means ping pong/table tennis club). I used to go to one in Gwangmyeong with my wife sometimes. It was in the basement of some building. They had about 10 tables, and instructors, maybe even a team. It wasn't part of a billiards business or anything, just ping pong/table tennis.

The closest to Itaewon: '에이스 탁구장'(Ace Pingpong) near Line 6 Hyochang Park station. That's 3 stops westward from Itaewon, 50 meters north of Exit 2.

Alternatively: 'TMS 탁구교실'(TMS Pingpong) near Seoul Station. This is at 6-1 Dongja-dong, in the same building as Hanyang Vocational College which is in the vicinity of Exit 11 of Line 4 station, but you need to navigate through the sidestreets.
