It’s a good hiphop club on the clubbing streets of Hongdae. The staff there is pretty nice and the music is good ~ They usually play some old school hip hop and it gets pretty lit closer to midnight ~The manager is pretty chill as well (:

First and last time going there. I'm sure the vibes are great if you're already drunk and don't care about the entire space being kinda gross and the floor being extra dirty with litter and ciggy buts. Everyone was openly smoking and vaping and hotboxing the space so it was hard to breathe in general. They did play a couple good songs. But most of it wasn't the vibe for me personally, but if you like new gen american rappers, that's the spot for you. I will say, I was pleasantly surprised they played some music (Savage - Swing) from my country though just before we left! The staff and security were pretty nice, the other people didn't annoy us or anything, I just think the atmosphere was quite messy and the place is only good for a short time.

Very nice club, the music is great and 99% of the people are Korean. I guess that they have a quota of foreigners that they allow inside. The atmosphere was great, we danced for a couple of hours with very nice people and the club is not crowded, which is very pleasant. BUT, the staff is absolutely awful with foreigners, at least this was my experience. I am a European woman, and I was there with two of my friends. When I went to the bar to order a drink, the two barmen weren’t busy and talked to each other and when I arrived to order, they put their head down on their phones and ignored me. I made big gestures 1 meter in front of them while shouting “hey’ excuse me!” And continued ignoring me until their manager came, looked at me in a very mean way and told one of the barman to serve me. They didn’t speak english at all and made me feel very unwelcome. It is insane that in the 21st century such xenophobia still exists… it’s too bad because the music is very nice.

I don’t typically mind age restrictions, but being told that 30+ was too old to enter after queuing and watching much older Korean patrons be let in did not leave a good impression. Our Korean friends who were nearly 10 years older were allowed in both before and after we were denied, and they were surprised at the blatant racism. Thankfully there’s a lot of great other clubs around so we weren’t stuck for long!

the promoter in the green jacket on friday 3/14 was rude and aggressive and actively shoved a member of our group
