KMK: At First Sight

At first Sight

On a recommendation from my gal pals Cleo and Papiso I made plans to go to At First Sight. Initially I planned to just pop in and check it out, but after all the hype they bestowed upon the place I decided to instead go with a date. I have to say the ladies didn’t…

Heads up, the beast is out and won’t be coaxed back in his cage. Papa Gorilla, a club in the thick of Hongdae, threatens nearby hot spots with thumping music, cheap drinks, and warm gyrating bodies.
