Night club in Korea

2014/09/08

Yesterday my friend's groupmates decided to go out to a night club, not any club, but in Gangnam area. It is the most prestigious expensive district in Seoul where the majority of celebrities live). He really just such proportions. You come there, and the people seemed to have gone from the screen of Korean dramas, all dressed-up, cool cars, and the hotels are the most nicest ones. And that was right on time as I tried to found out  where are all these Korean boys and girls with the pretty faces, beautiful lines, in expensive brand clothes and luxury cars. That turned out to be there- on Gangnam. The club where we were headed is called "Octagon". It ranks 9th out of hundreds of the best clubs in Seoul. And it's really so awesome. At least I found it very cool. There are 3 floors there, a huge dance floor, the music is great (just as I like)- electro and house. The way how it sounds is much better and differ from that of  St. Petersburg's club music. Besides, the luck was on our side that day, we came by 10 pm and the entrance fee was only 10$. For  Gangnam area is not bad actually, because starting from 11 pm the cost would be 30$. The fee includes one free drink, alcohol, water or juice, whatever you want. So do any other clubs in Seoul. Well, at least it was the same in those clubs where I have already been (5-6 of them).

There were 7 people of us.

My Russian friend, one Chinese guy, one Turkish guy and 2 Japanese girls

We entered the club, went down to the dance floor. First we went to powder our noses. The toilet was as in the best hotel. So  huge, sofas and ottomans and two huge wall mirror. And there we came across the magnificent view .... Some girl..... some are sitting, some are lying, doing make-up, drying hair and making it and even likely dressing up. There were huge bags with clothes and other stuff to fix themselves up. In other part of this restroom there were toilets and sinks, again, with huge mirrors. So, you don't need to waste your time at home, just need to come by 10 pm and ... doll yourself up right here))).

The restroom.Unfortunately, I couldn't take the photo of the whole of it

There was one problem. I was told there were a dress code and face control, too. So we had to put a more or less sexy and nice clothes on, so that brutal, but at the same time quite friendly and cute guards spread the red carpet in front of your beautiful legs and let you in to the club .... ))) I'm joking, of course, there were no carpets. We just had to bring our ID cards for them to check our age. We made the payment inside. We stopped, looked around, and after 10 minutes went to search for any cafes to eat and drink something - mostly alcohol (but only 2 girls were drinking, the others prefered not to, and I was not the exception. The reason are my constant headaches and anyway I hardly ever drink, only socially and not often and much, and I come to clubs just to dance and for no other reason))).

The dance floor at the moment when we just came in at around 10 pm. So it's too early for people to come and dance

The girls were drinking makgeolli - Korean traditional alcoholic drink 6.5-7%. It is also called rice wine. Since it is made from rice it is milky color and slightly sweet. I gave it a try and I would say, I was not impressed.. Though my Korean assistant simply glorified makgeolli, saying that this drink have the variety of flavors, such as banana, strawberry, pineapple flavors and something else. Well, I'm not sure that everybody will like it...... As they say "Tastes differ"

So we ate, drank, and finally went to the club.

Trying to kill our time in KFC

We came back it at around midnight and there were so many people already there. Again, the music was great, and our bodies began to move under it themselves)))). I noticed the DJ and was staring at him the whole time. And not only me. Other girls also drew attention to him. It's because he was very cool, handsome, with huge shoulders, stylish hair and beautiful face, and the music- the music he twisted .... In short, we stared at him, until he was replaced by another DJ .... ... We were fully upset. Well, nothing to do. We just continued to dance .... By the way there were so many Russian girls there and they were rocking and kicking asses.... in one word they really enjoyed. Maybe only Europeans behave themselves very open  .... Korean (Asians) try to look shy and modest, at least the vast majority, but there are, of course, as everywhere, exceptions .... And that is only facade. I mean they want to make other people think that they are so nice and well-behaved. But in fact they are not. In fact there are so many drunk and insane girls ... exactly the girls, not boys. Just imagine the picture...... Drunk girls are being carried out of a club in a half-dead condition, or girls lying around in the bushes, and emptying their stomachs by shooting the cats. Honestly, it is so disgusting. Yesterday I watched the girls with guys who were headed straight to the nearby hotel  with skirts and dresses hiked up in back reveling there intimate zones without even noticing it or just not caring at all about it. Hush!!!!…..

This is the area wgich is cowered with clubs and tus crowds of young people

Each hour there very more and more people even though there was hardly room to breath.   There was one group of young people ... I do not know ... maybe models. Americans. Girls and guys are all tall, handsome, beautiful, sexy=)). Couple of guy looked a bit girlish so I supposed they were gays. Anyway they drew so much attention that even the most dressed-up  Korean guys were in shock and died of envy, because those guys are simply overshadowed everything and everybody ... .. And then the girls-girls. A good part of those that were on the dance floor just stuck to those American guys. We were also there near them but we were there from the very beginning and those cool guys appeared later. One of them even came up to me and talked... My friend (girl) was so surprise and shocked. She couldn't believe in our luck. LOL. His name was Rodrigo and he was from Brazil .... Haha ... .Though I was sure that he was an American. And by the way, all the time he was half-naked. All of those guys simply took their t-shirts off showing their biceps and piercings in their  nipples LOL))))) Anyway, he asked my name, introduced himself and after this just was gone with one of those cool girls. Well, frankly speaking I do not care about all those sweet guys as their look is only the beautiful  wrap, nothing more. Of course, maybe he is not only handsome but possesses some other good features as well, but who knows!)))).

There were enough Korean guys with a good style there, so were girls, all tall, slim, on high hills, with a good attracting make-up. In short, there were everything in them necessary to draw attention ...

By the way, Clubs in Korea are much more safer than in Russia, and probably, in America and in Europe. Yes, of course, guys stick to girls, even to me. But ... ..I just say "No, thank you" and that's it.... it usually works. Next time they will not try to do it again So, they are not that insistent, that is going to be a good news for ladies, who usually go to a club just for relaxing, enjoying the music, simply dancing and spending with friends.

At the end of the story ... .. We left the club at around 3:30 am, just because we were so tired and didn't leave the floor even for a couple of minutes. And even despite the fact that none of us wore high hills, already at 3 o'clock in the morning we were completely dead and our feet cried for help and were longing for the rest))))))). So we decided that was time to go home ... But the guys refused to catch a taxy as it was a bit expensive.... well, not that much, but definitely more expensive than to go by train..... and as you may already understood.... we are just students here with no money((((, so we had to wait until 5:30 am when the subway opens. And at that time I just was dreaming about the flying magic carpet ...  or a time machine, or a magic lamp ... you know, that you can snapped you fingers, and find yourself in a comfortable dorm room in your little cozy bed under the blanket and black teddy-cat beside you....... Mmm, so nice =)) )))).
