A friend of mine went there to teach, pretty cool guy. Loved the place, may never leave. Grip summa that Korean beer. Super cheap and far better than its general Japanese counterpart.

Two of my ex-roommates were Koreans from Seoul and students at Yonsei, awesome guys. Gonna go there in the middle of the blazing summer to hang out with them and stay with their families. Tell me if/when you find something radical to do.

I don't know about that. You'd drink Hite or Cass over Sapporo or Asahi?


In general I am not a fan of the "industry standard" Japanese beer (i.e. Super Dry, Kirin Nama), moreso because it usually costs about 6 bucks a litre, and far more for anything darker. Hite is shit, but Cass you can get for like a buck a jug last I heard, and i've heard it tastes not so bad. Of course, OB is king of them all!

Oh yeah, Rudie, if you get a chance to go near the DMZ (doesn't seem like you are, but what the hay), see if you can sneak a look into a North Korean shop in the area and pick up a bottle of NK government-approved Soju (there is only one kind afaik); the stuff never really gets more expensive than 5 bucks a bottle. Be careful though: they will definitely try to haggle you for two bottles at like half price, but you can only bring one bottle of liquor with you across the DMZ. Even though you don't drink, it makes an incredible party favor at your next enkai, especially if you don't tell your friends its from NK until after they drink it. Watch them eyes bug out.
