Seoul

Seoul’s queer life thrives in Itaewon’s Homo Hill, where bars and clubs provide refuge and celebration amid conservative surroundings. The city’s Pride parade continues to grow each year, representing a younger generation pushing for visibility and equality.

Sapphic Night is a night intentionally centered on wlw relationships and sapphic community. If someone catches your eye, make this the night you strike up a conversation in an inclusive space! The evening kicks off with a few games (and free shots 👀) followed by mingling and dancing for the rest of the night.
