SeoulGrid is going to start keeping an archive of the photographs from the main clubs and parties each weekend. Get your photo snapped at the club and want to see how it turned out? Couldn’t make it to a party and want to see how good it was? Come here each week and check it out.
This week we’re looking at party photos from Michael Canitrot @ Answer, Peter Bailey @ Eden, Jamie Doom (Turntable Lab) @ Heaven, and “The Real Party” @ Heaven.
What’s up, SeoulGrid? I’m sure you all know the deal by now — each week we highlight the best nightlife and club events for in Seoul so you can be sure you don’t miss the hottest parties and DJs for the coming weekend. And believe me — this weekend is hot.
“But James,” you protest. “You say that every weekend.” Ok fine, so I’m easily excited. But seriously, this weekend we have something that will blow you away — his name is Paul Oakenfold. And when it rains it pours (in a good way), as he’s not the only great act coming this weekend. But I’m getting ahead of myself. First, let’s start off with…
Pics from April First Thursdays Afterwork champagne party at Copacabana lounge in Cheongdam-dong, Seoul, with Moet & Chandon! The party was hosted on April 1st at Copacabana Community Lounge @ Cheongdam, Seoul. The next Afterwork party will be hosted on May 6th. Check Afterwork website for more details.

It normally takes the photographers a few days to a week to get the their pictures uploaded online, so this week we’re actually looking at last week’s parties. Included are photos from the White Noize / Penthouse Lingerie Party @ Answer, the Shut Da Mouth Party @ Heaven, and the Jeremy Scott / 2NE1 Live Performance / Astro Voize / Hed Kandi Party @ Answer.
What’s up, SeoulGrid? Hope you’re feeling well-rested: we have another three-day marathon party session this weekend. We’re looking at a First Thursday’s Aftework Party, guest DJs from Paris, Syndney, and NYC, and a professional beatboxer from England. Sound interesting? Read on.
What’s up, SeoulGrid? Hope everyone had fun last weekend, because this weekend is stacked.
First off, we’re thirsty, and we just can’t wait for Friday. So this week what say we get started early?
There are few names in the club scene that carry as much weight as Paul Oakenfold. He’s been making music professionally since before I was born, and has been renowned as one of the top DJs in the world for over a decade. His music has been featured in dozens of movies, TV shows, video games, and commercials, making him one of the few electronic DJs to successfully break into the mainstream.
In other words, this guy is huge — but I’m guessing you already knew that.
And now for the first time ever, courtesy of On&On Communications, he’s coming to South Korea.
What’s up, clubbers — James here, and this is the first of a weekly series that’s intended to keep you up-to-date with each weekend’s club events and parties so you can make your plans accordingly.
Now, I’m not going to waste your time with every small party that gives itself a name and designs a pretty poster. Each week I’m going to stick to the four biggest electronic-music clubs in Seoul (Answer, Heaven, Eden, and Volume), as well as parties that have either proven themselves in the past or look interesting enough to warrant checking out. In other words, I’ll never post a party that I wouldn’t attend myself.
Throughout this series, I will also sometimes award a “top pick” — a recommendation for a party that I think will be better than anything else going on that night. Now, I’m sure there are a few among you who are snickering quietly to yourself and asking, “What does this guy know about the club scene?” Fair enough. It’s my first article, so allow me to provide some background on myself.
My credentials: I’ve been in Seoul for the past year and a half, and during that time the majority of my waking hours have been spent partying harder than could ever be considered sane or healthy. I’ve partied until the sun was high in the sky more times than I can count, and I’ve probably partied more cumulative hours in the past year than you and all of your friends combined. (If you’re reading this and that’s not true, then that means you probably already know me personally. Haha.) Ergo, I’d say I’m as close to an expert on the club scene in Seoul as one could reasonably expect. Yes, that’s me pictured above.
Hey; it’s a tough job, but someone has to do it. So without further ado…
First Thursdays Afterwork returned this time with Moet et Chandon Rose and Hennessy! The party was hosted at Copacabana, Cheongdam’s newest trendy lounge that is located right next to Tribeca or ex-Club Circle building. Check out the picture gallery to see if you and your friends were captured in the moment! Or if you couldn’t make it for whatever reason, check out the gallery anyways to see what you missed out on!
March First Thursdays Afterwork featured a chocolate fountain for guests to dip biscuits, strawberries and other fruits. Also featured were a gigantic ice sculpture of Hennessy bottle, which was nothing short of impressive. As usual Copacabana was packed with people and towards the end of the night some were moving their bodies along with the house beats dropped by the DJ at the booth. Next First Thursdays will be on the first Thursday of April. Visit Afterwork website for more details.

Where is everyone hanging out tonight? Tonight there’s Soul Heaven Hennessy Artistry, with Andy Ward (Soul Central, UK). It is hosted at Club Function inside Macaroni Market, Itaewon. This is where SeoulGrid crew will be hanging out tonight!
