Go clubbing, Busan style

Every city in every country has it’s own nightlife and clubbing style. Korea’s nightlife can be compared to that of Vegas, with huge venues, stage sets, international DJs and random celebrity appearances being completely normal for a Friday at the club. Seomyeon holds one of Busan’s most hit clubs, called Club Fix. A lot of foreigners find their way here because of its amazing reputation as one of the hottest clubs in all of South Korea. Expect electro, dub and a crowd of lively partygoers.

Eat in a Pojangmacha

If you have watched any Korean television dramas or movies, then you have probably seen a pojangmacha. If not, a pojangmacha is a very tiny restaurant in a tent that serves street food or other interesting delicacies. You’ll see these places become full very late at night with a lot of partygoers choosing to frequent them after their wild night out.
