Some Other Gig Guides
June 29, 2008 – 5:32 pmWhile I think the Gig Guide has gotten off to a slightly better than expected start, obviously this is not the only game in town for learning about events and things that are going on. So I thought I would mention a few other options that I know about.
- DJCJ: More for clubs and dance music, but the DJCJ forum offers a pretty good selection of dance club parties that are going on around Seoul (and sometimes Busan).
- Seoul Sounds: Another site for clubs and dance events. Also has a forum.
- Party Luv: another club-focused website, but in Korean.
- Sadly, Seoul Steves does not seem to be updating much anymore. And Groove magazine lists very few events happening in Korea.
- Seoul Selection’s website features more upscale and high-brow events, but it too has an events listing.
- Weiv was perhaps the best online music ‘zine in Korea for several years, but these days it is not updated very often and seems to be running on life support. Plus no concert listings.
I am sure that I have missed some other sites. I certainly hope I missed some. Feel free to write in and berate me for not mentioning your favorite(s). But that is all I can think of for now.
