 |
|
| I keep thinking and wishing that some new-good bars would appear in Itaewan. Some different themes, and a bit more classy without being juicy girl bars. What is your opinion? Were you to plan a bar in Itaewan; what would it be like? What theme? What would you do to get customers coming in? |

| I can't figure out why there's not a brew pub in Itaewon. They're everywhere else. Sincheon, Myeongdong, Gangnam, ect... |

No more bars...
I would open a Barnes and Noble, complete with the Starbucks inside. (I don't really care if it's a Starbucks.. any coffee shop good for people watching) With a massive amount of English books! I guess that I can dream, right? |

| There is supposed to be a Hard Rock Cafe opening in Itaewon, but I am not sure how they are coming along with that. I like to sit down for a drink sometimes in HRC's and have a great meal. |

| I would open up a restaurant that sells middle eastern or Indian food. |

id set up an authentic English, west country pub. A beer stained carpet thats only being held together by the grime, a thick fug of smoke, two full time yokels at the bar with enough facial hair stuff a matress, a wonkey pool table, Bath v Gloucster on the tele and all the cider on tap that you could ever imagine.
Home sweet home!! |

| An inexpensive brew pub would rock Itaewon out. Like that one place in Ilsan--I forget the name--Reisenbrau? ..or something. 3000-4000 brews. |

something to cater to US G.I.s with disposable income and poor financial sense.  |

Sports bar pure and simple..sort of like Malone's in Shanghai. I can't recall if they use replays or just ESPN or what----but you see NFL or MLB playing allday during the season...
I think it would boom-remember how packed 3-alley was for World Cup?
aside from that keep the place clean and classy----high prices to keep the riffraff out...Don't want to drop 100 bucks?-go sit at Family Mart. 
all sports all the time... |

| A reasonably priced guesthouse that doesn't cater to drunk GIs or hagwon jockeys and their whores, with a Western style restaurant that does a mean breakfast. |

The brew pub idea is pure money. I'd hit that in a second.

There is a Starbucks. Barnes and Noble hasn't yet made it to Korea, though ...

This is Korea, remember? Most of the women don't have ... oh, never mind.
