It seems it's a big secret as I can't find any. I don't care if the guy is good or not, I just need a slight altercation made to one of mine.
But seriously, I can't find any. Someone started a thread about the one in Itaewon, I called them up and the guy said it was near Burger King. After walking around like a sucker, I went to the information booth and asked the lady for, uh, information. She told me it was in an alley at the base of Hooker Hill. The only thing I saw in the alley there near that ajumma selling pig's heads was some shady looking Nigerians and a stumbling, drunk white guy with frizzy gray hair. So I left and bought a chili burger instead (which gave me the runs btw).
So if any one can point me in the right direction, and seeing as it's a big secret and all, please PM me with phone numbers or directions, and in return I'll sell you some fcuk hair wax for a good price (I bought it thinking it was deodarant, but don't worry - I haven't used it under my arms or anything). |

Exactly right.
There are a few around, but they're all hiding from you. I don't recommend going to one of them unless you know Korean or bring a Korean. All the ones I know about are in Hongdae. |

I heard of one in Hongdae somewhere, I can't remember exactly.
And I know there is one in Songtan, right near the main gate of Osan AB, right near the BMW dealership.
And I know there is one in DongduChon too.
But most expats I've met usually go down to Thailand to get their tatoos done- cheaper and I hear it is alittle cleaner too. |

Hey, could you PM me with more specific directions, or a telephone number? I'd really like to get this fixed up by Monday.
Also, again, anyone else with any information, please let me know. The sooner this is done, the better. It will probably take the guy about twenty minutes to do; it is nothing too major (workwise).
Thanks. |

Tattooing is basically illegal in Korea. It can only legally be performed by a doctor in Korea, same with piercing.
However, I have seen a couple of tattoo parlours in the �̴� area and they are not hidden but fairly obvious.

I know of at least half a dozen places that do body piercing in Korea, none with a Medical degree on the wall for sure. One was actually an outdoor stall in an alley. |

No wonder no one has PM'ed me - they beeped the name of the hair wax!
Anyway, it is f c u k hair wax. Quality stuff. If I don't get any offers soon, I'm using it on my nether regions, for my dingleberries could do with some styling and profiling. |

i've been to one in the Hongdae area, but i was just walking around with some korean girl and she stopped in there with me to get advice on what nipple piercings would look good on her. Being a little distracted at the time I am not able to remember directions on how to get there. |
