I do nearly exclusively home practice since I'm far away from all those places... but I have been to the Flow Room a while back and enjoyed their vinyasa classes.

There is no civilized life in Yangpyeong.

America.

Almost thought you were referring to the yangpyeong county in gyeonggido lol

While there are decent number of hot yoga places around Seoul, I haven’t seen Bikram yoga place yet, so perhaps it’s not a popular teaching here. But also after watching Netflix documentary about Bikram scandal, I am kind of glad that it’s not a thing here in Korea. Sorry probably not the answer you were looking for, but hope it helps.

I'd be interested to see if there was one, as well. Covid seems a likely foil, and then being a foreigner and male would probably preclude it as a possibility.

It’s not common, so my guess is that you would need to contact the gyms that offer classes directly.

To my knowledge, there are no such gyms offering open times. Generally, they want people to go in for a class/ buy a membership. Only people I know who open access were the coaches who work there. That being said, maybe try 4TP fitness

Whats the cruisy ones in HK?

Just download jackd and go to jongno3ga, Sillim, and Itaewon

Just get some rings and look for a tree branch, swing set, basketball hoop, etc. 

Make your own calisthenics park. 

Han River has a nice outdoor pullup and stuff along with nice scenery for walks and runs

rejuran is popular and i’ve had good results with just one session but it was the most painful thing i’ve ever experienced like worse than breaking my wrist i wish i was exaggerating 😭 i was numbed with cream for 30 min and it still hurt so bad that i asked for the general anesthesia/numbing injections on my face…. and it STILL hurt pretty bad. so just be warned

although i’ve heard that the machine/pen version hurts less! but is also a bit less effective

research things yourself first before you go into a clinic because it’s likely that they’ll try to sell you on things. think about what’s really worth it to you and what’s your primary skin concerns. also research if certain treatments are even effective after just one time, or if it’s something you’ll need to get regularly. i would recommend microneedling or rejuran to almost anyone though! i do think there are good effects after 1 time. chemical peels are definitely cheaper there if you’ve ever wanted to get one, but keep in mind you’ll be wanting to stay outside of the sun at all costs and also you’ll be looking a bit rough. that also goes for rejuran big time as well as other treatments

if you’re a girl and you like getting your nails done, i highly recommend it in korea. they mostly work with korean gels, not acrylic or polygel. i also feel like it’s better to get it on your natural nails rather than extensions because extensions can be quite pricey there. tiktok has good recommendations, and you can find a ton on instagram!!! look up neighborhood + ‘nail’ like ‘seongsu nail’ ‘gangnam nail’ (it’s better if you can type it in korean for example 선수네일, 강남네일, 홍대네일)

get your hair cut, i prefer salons in cheongdam area because a lot of locals go there. i do speak korean but i think you could definitely get by with english + body language + pictures + translator. most young hair stylists nowadays seem to all speak really good english. i recommend the salon choijin or moreon (you can find them on ig and maybe dm or kakao for appt if you don’t have a naver acc) a lot of tourists go to myeongdong or hongdae for hair which ive never personally done, but since it is more catered towards tourists i feel that they don’t always have to do a good job because they know you won’t be coming back. just my opinion though

I did microneedling and loved it! I will be doing it again in the USA but the price is ouch!

I hear rejuran injections are amazing as well - i didn't do it cos my pain tolerance is non existent but i hear they give you numbing cream but i should have considered

I’ll be there the last week of July too. DM me if you’d like to share ideas.

A lot of people just book directly with clinics in Myeongdong or Gangnam, and some use seoulbeautytalk if they want help setting up appointments in English.
