Restaurants, Bars, Clubs and Nightlife in Seoul, Korea

Your Guide to Premium Nightlife in Seoul

Finger Lounge is one of those venues located in alleys of Cheongdam that not everyone knows about.  It’s a modern lounge located in the alley between Tom N Toms cafe and MNet building (the main road that connects ex-Circle, McDonald’s Drivethrough and Club Answer).

The interior is very modern and clean.  Bar, which is located in the center of the venue, is metal-finished.  The center of the venue space almost reminds you of a large kitchen, where as tables and seats surround the center bar is white and wooden-brown in color.  It’s an interesting blend of two different atmospheres captured within a venue.

Lights dim at night and it becomes more of a clubby lounge, equipped with a good sound sytem.

What captures my attention immediately, is their special champagne deal.  A bottle of Moet & Chandon Imperial (750ml) sells for only 80,000 Won!  This is mind-blowing, as the price of the same bottle in other equivalent lounges (remember, regular Cheongdam premium prices apply here) easily costs around 140,000 – 160,000 or more.  For 80,000 Won, you will get a bottle of Moet, as well as a strawberry platter.

This, my fellow readers of SeoulGrid, one of the best deals on Moet & Chandon champagnes you can get in Seoul.

This is too good to be true, however.  And nothing too-good-to-be-true ever lasts forever.  This deal is only valid until April 30th, before 9pm every day.

But this is not all Finger has to offer.

They are offering a bottle of Jagermeister with 2 regular bottles of Red Bull for 100,000, and a bottle of Grey Goose + 2 chasers for 140,000 Won.  These are nice deals nonetheless!

Another amazing deal, is 1+1 cocktail deal.  Meaning, if you get 1 specialty drink, whatever it is, you will get another classic cocktail made for you for free!  This means you get 2 cocktails for the price of one (I can’t put it any simpler)!

So… I won’t have to write long… Check this place out while the deal is still on!

    I know I wrote this, but still, I’m gonna check out the deal again…

    I don’t know which is a better deal… the moet chandon deal or the 1+1 cocktail deal…

  • Tingen

    the price is really nice….with strawberries…yum…

  • Tomás

    How much do the specialty cocktails cost for the 1+1?

  • James

    Wow, Moet costs like W60,000 if you buy it from the liquor stores — they’re earning practically no mark-up. That’s a sick promotion, and definitely the cheapest I’ve ever seen it in Seoul.

  • e2

    I definitely agree. at 80,000 a bottle, it’s a steal, especially since the bar is in cheongdamdong. then again its a matter of if you want to spend 80,000 on a bottle to start with. if you go out, you seldomly start and finish your night with 1 bottle of champagne.

  • Kenji

    this deal was good. I checked it out. cocktails are tasty

  • SeoulGrid.com Guide to Clubbing Vol. 06What's up, SeoulGrid? Sorry about the delay in posting the club guide this week. My already crazy week unexpectedly got a bit crazier... [My plane crashed on this mysterious island, then we got attacked by this big black column of smoke, and... Ok, so I'm really irresponsible and I spent the past week catching up on "Lost" instead of writing this article -- look, I'm sorry, alright?!]Quick updates this week: The good, Club Heaven has free entry Friday night! The bad, Club Volume is still closed for renovations until further notice. The ugly, I'll be in Tokyo this weekend, so you all will have to party it up without me. Yeah, I know you'll miss me, but don't worry -- the East Sea won't stop me from giving you the lowdown, and there's lots of good stuff going on this weekend.Read on to find out what's up, and prepare yourselves for yet another weekend of the chaotic debauchery that is Seoul's club scene...

    Friday, April 23rd

    Saturday, April 24th

    SeoulGrid Top Pick:

    Daishi Dance @ Heaven Daishi Dance Club Heaven

    Click for more details.

    Party Info:

    Fri @ Answer: "Drive Tunes Gifting" (Housegraphy Records)

    Guest DJs: "Housegraphy Records" -- Baram, KINGmck, Hyde, S-Pill, LocoSoound, BaekSeung

    Club Naked shutting down has mixed things up a lot. I remember seeing  a lot of these guys at Club Naked back in the day, and now I guess they have a bit of freedom to play at other parties as well.

    These guys are really talented -- some of the shows they put on at Naked when it first opened were incredible. (I went to Naked much less frequently in the last months before it closed, so I'm not sure if they continued). Two of them would DJ simultaneously, often creating new music on the fly, blurring the boundary between a DJ set and a live performance.

    This party is described as "House Mixset for Driving," so I'm not sure exactly what kind of style to expect, but it reminds me of my midnight drives up I-95 between my college and my hometown. So chug a Red Bull, crank the volume, push the pedal for the floor, and check your review mirror periodically for flashing red and blue lights!

    Fri @ Eden: "EZ-House"

    Resident DJs: EYou, Ziro

    Nothing much to write here -- Eden's resident DJs usually play tech-house and minimalism. I can't find a decent quality video of their resident DJs online.

    Fri @ Heaven: "Mash Up Da Rave"

    Guest DJs: Clubber Langz (UK), Mackay (Ireland)

    Note that although Club Heaven also lists "Shut Da Mouth" as a guest DJ, I'm not listing because on last week's poster it read:

    Shut The Mouth are resident DJs at Heaven. There, I said it.

    Club heaaaaven...

    Anyway, actually guest DJing tonight are Clubber Langz from the UK and Ross Mackay from Ireland. Here's Clubber Langz playing at Elune in Busan with an MC:

    Free entry: From what I gather, you can get in this show for free if you arrive before midnight and say "Clubber Langz" at the desk. So if you've been wanting to check out the club scene but don't feel like paying a W30,000 cover, here's your chance.

    .

    [Top Pick] Sat @ Answer: Kavinsky

    A friend of a friend just saw Kavinsky in Tokyo and said that the show was incredible. People are calling him the next generation of French Electro, following in the footsteps of Daft Punk and Justice. After listening to his stuff, I can say his style is definitely one-of-a-kind.

    Think synth film scores from the '80s. Think SNES. Think Knight Rider meets Tron. [Speaking of SNES, did anyone here play Mega Man II? This game had one kickass soundtrack. Ok I'm a huge dork.] Anyway, If I wanted to sum up Kavinsky's style in a word, I would have to go with "Neo-Retro," if that makes any sense. So it's like he came from some strange alternate universe where the '80s was awesome.

    Check out more of his music on Kavinsky's Myspace. If you like what you hear, then I'll see you Saturday!

    Sat @ Eden: Kenny Dope & Louie Vega

    This duo goes under the name "Masters at Work" or MAW. The video I posted is a bit more upbeat than a lot of their stuff, but it was the highest quality video I could find. For the most part their style seems to be a kind of funky, soulful minimal house with some Latin influence. Definitely an ineresting sound if it's your style.

    Sat @ Heaven: Psytonic Super Live

    Note that this is a live show -- "Drum, Guitar, Keyboard, Vocal" -- but I can't find a clip of Psytonic playing a live set online.

    Psytonic's usual style is psytrance, so if that's your thing, it should be quite interesting to see psytrance accompanied by live rock.
