Club tables in Seoul: a first-timer's guide for visitors

Seoul's clubs come alive late, and a table is the easiest way for a group to enjoy them. Here is how it works.

In short

  • Bring your passport. Clubs check ID at the door.
  • The legal age is 19, counted by birth year: you qualify from 1 January of the year you turn 19.
  • Standard tables are reserved in the spot you choose. VIP tables are priced at the day's rate.
  • Clubs fill up late, so plan dinner first.

Where the clubs are

The best-known nights out are in Gangnam, around Cheongdam and Apgujeong. Itaewon and Hongdae have a younger, more casual crowd. Tell us the mood you want, from a big room with a headline DJ to something smaller, and we suggest where to go.

Standard and VIP tables

A standard table gives your group a reserved place to sit, with drinks served at the table. We secure it in the position you pick.

VIP tables are the best positions in the room. Their price changes with the night, the DJ and demand, and clubs set it on the day. Message us and we quote the day's price straight away, before you commit to anything.

What to bring and wear

  • Your passport. A photo on your phone is not enough.
  • Smart casual is safe. A few clubs do not allow slippers. If one of them is on your plan, we tell you before the day.

How we plan a club night

Dinner first if you like, then the car takes you to the door. Your host handles entry and the table, stays close by or waits in the car, and drives you back to your hotel whenever you are ready.

A night can mix more than one stop: a club after a private karaoke room, or a late visit to a casino. Your total is confirmed before the night begins, and VIP table prices are quoted before you decide.

Questions guests ask

Can you get us a table on a busy night?
Usually, yes. We secure standard tables in the spot you choose, and quote VIP tables at the day's rate.
Can we go to more than one club?
Yes. The car and your host stay with you, so moving between places is easy.
Do we have to pay a deposit?
No. As with everything we arrange, you pay on the day.
