Plenty of gyms, you won't have a problem there. I would just avoid those that make you wear their own clothes, however convenient it is.........
They can be a little pricey so take a Korean to negotiate a contract. Shop around. Lots of cheap exercise equipment also available if you want to shake your booty at home....

Costs:
Anywhere from 40,000 won a month to around 150,000 won per month, depending on the area you live in and how nice the gym is. |

AND, it doesn't seem like they use soap when they wash their uni's.
Quite the nasty scent. |

I have much more respect for the board's original Lloyd Christmas, who- pretending to be a kyopo who was looking to beat up his alter ego in front of his friend's bookstore- at least knew how to spell "Lloyd". |

You said it so much better than I ever could P.R.!!!!! I am no fashionista BUT I prefer to look and feel how I chose to NOT how some institution wishes.......hospitals? maybe I'll wear one of their airy gowns but if I'm working out, I'll wear my own freedom loving, non commie outfit.....
