Korea Trip – Part 13: Last Night in Seoul

by

After the party, the cousins rallied for one last night together in Seoul. There was typical eating and drinking. Sandor and Jen had early flights in the morning, but Sandor wanted to make the most of his 40-hour trip. We almost went home, but he convinced me, Patty, Lou, Millie and Myung to go out with him.

We went to Octogon at the Hotel Hilltop. Even before entering, I knew we had no business being there. Sandor coached everyone on how to enter, but wasn’t going to stop in case anyone didn’t make it past the bouncers. Everyone made it (even Lou).

The scene inside was amazing. Despite Koreans’ propensity for aesthetic enhancement, I observed a low percentage of attractive people during our travels (anthropologically speaking). I then realized all the attractive people were hanging out at Octogon.

We lost some of the team due to the volume of the music. I’m convinced I lost some of what little hearing I have left. It was awesome. Next time, first stop: Octogon.

No night of clubbing is complete without going out for some galbi-tang at 4:00am. We finally decided to call it a night. Sandor was contemplating just staying up. I have no idea what he did between then and departure time…

    If you like the music at Octagon, that night it was an hommage to a group called Justice (who I like a lot). http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GEY-c9O1MQs
