Get her drunk, take her to the "luxury noraebang", and try to get busy. When she protests because she thinks people can see in, tell her it's one-way glass...people can see out but can't see in.

Don't know if this is your style but there is a cool place called Bricxx a Hookah bar. They play mostly downtempo music, have a cool atmosphere and it's something different.

Make that "blind drunk" and you might have a chance at making her forget that she could see in when she walked up to it from the street.

Gr8 is a better hookah bar with about 8 times as many flavors and better staff.

Assuming she's so drunk and doesn't notice the people singing on the way in?

is there a possibility of sitting in the hookah bar, chillaxing, and not smoking a hookah but rather drinking and talking? I don't smoke, and she doesn't either, but I'm all about exotic atmospheres.

You can do that. Many of my friends that don't smoke will smoke hookah. It barely has nicotine in it.

Then where can i find this Bricxx or Gr8?

edit:

NM I found directions:

For Gr8
Quote:
Hongik University station, Line 2: Go out Exit 6 and walk straight. Turn left at the VIPS buffet restaurant and walk all the way up the street until you reach the university's front gate. Turn right and walk about 150 meters. At the small 3-way intersection, you'll see U.S. 66 on the your right. Across the street is Gr8 (fourth floor). You should be able to see the sign with the hookah pipe.


Bricxx is right across the street and around the corner from Gr8.

Sangsu Station on Line 6 is closer. Exit number 1 or 2 and head toward the university. Gr8 will be on your right.

It's also known as a Turkish water pipe. I think they are still as bad as cigarettes. I would not try one, personally, as a non-smoker.

No they aren't. Hookah smoke has almost no nicotine, so it's not addictive, and it has no tar like cigarettes do. You can also smoke on a hookah without inhaling it into your lungs if you are worried.

The lungs have a remarkable way of healing themself, too. A person who has smoked cigarettes for decades can quit, and within 10 years their lungs will have become like a non-smoker's lungs.

So grab the hookah and puff, puff, pass (to the left if you will).

Well, when I was in Istanbul, hookah smokers were mostly men. It's not very ladylike for a girl to use one of these things.
