[KBW] Where Should We Meet in Seoul?

1/ Gangnam Station : Gangnam is huge. Saying "let's meet in Gangnam" is like saying "let's meet in Brooklyn"—way too vague. Stick to the station area. Tons of Web3 companies are here.

2/ Apgujeong : Expensive party zone. Ages 20-30 crowd. Lounges, bars, clubs, shopping—if you want to flex, this is your spot.

3/ Seongsu : The hottest district right now. Korean brand shopping everywhere and endless cafes. Perfect for popup hunting. (Pro tip: Konkuk University area is where the early-20s party)
4/ Hongdae : Used to be the cool spot. Still good for hip-hop clubs, tonkatsu, and ramen. Warning: It's on Seoul's west side. Don't try to bounce between Hongdae and Gangnam during rush hour—you'll hate your life.

5/ Yeouido : Financial district. Korea's Wall Street. Unless you're meeting institutions, skip it. (Don't come here just for The Hyundai or Han River—there are better spots)

6/ Bukchon/Seochon : Traditional vibes. Palaces, old Korean culture, museums, art galleries. Go here for the culture hit.
7/ Itaewon : Foreigner party central. Gets busy after 11 PM. By 2 AM, someone's definitely fighting.

8/ Samgakji : Near Itaewon but way chiller. Great wine bars, hip but not crazy. Plus the whole Yongsan/Han River area is getting good—cafes, history, perfect for downtime.
