The opening list
11 places to begin
Start with the kind of night you want rather than a universal “best” list. A quiet cocktail room, a live stage and a late-night club solve different plans. Seoul100Bars does not sell editorial rankings, and inclusion does not imply a commercial relationship unless the relevant link is clearly labelled.
New around Hongdae: three different club options
Added 7 September 2026: NB2, MODECi and The Henz Club, without repeating Club FF. These are independent editorial listings, not a ranking or a guaranteed itinerary. Choose one event first, check entry and identification requirements with the venue, and plan your way home.
Sources checked: Visit Seoul — NB2; MODECi on TIXX; The Henz Club’s April 2026 event listing. The Henz source confirms a past event, not a current schedule. Recheck official channels before visiting.
