Looking for somewhere to celebrate Thanksgiving in Seoul? Join Lit Lounge in Itaewon on November 26, 2026, for a free Thanksgiving dinner, unlimited drinks and an evening dedicated to food, friendship and community.

Yes, Seoul has an English stand-up comedy scene. And you don't have to be a professional comedian—or even a comedian at all—to be part of it.

If it's your first night out in Seoul and you don't know where to go, start with Itaewon. If you're in your early 20s and want young, high-energy nightlife and lots of clubs, choose Hongdae. For a more upscale night out, look toward Gangnam or Apgujeong. And if you'd rather experience Korean drinking culture, hidden bars and old-school streets than spend the night in a club, go to Euljiro. That's the short answer.
