I’m a blogger, writer, and urban explorer. I worked in South Korea’s ESL field for the 15 years. My one year contract turned, unexpectedly, into a journey!

KMK: Berlin

April 20, 2010July 29, 2023 Brian Dye597Leave a Comment on KMK: Berlin

I’ve been hearing about the restaurant Berlin in Itaewon for ages. A few weeks ago I finally made it over to see what all the fuss is about. I’ll start off by saying that I love the location. It’s right on a hill with a towering view of the streets below. Inside its all hardwood […]

KMK: OLD STAND European premium Pub

April 18, 2010July 29, 2023 Brian Dye906Leave a Comment on KMK: OLD STAND European premium Pub

Old Stand is a European style pub in the back streets of Itaewon. It’s located in the heart of things across from My Chelsea and next door to Baby Guinness.  If you blink you’ll almost surely miss it, so be sure to keep a keen eye out. You’ll be glad you did because it’s a […]

KMK: Wolfhound

April 16, 2010July 30, 2023 Brian Dye5912 Comments on KMK: Wolfhound

St. Patrick’s Day may have come and gone but that doesn’t mean you can’t kick back and enjoy a Guinness at a good old fashioned Irish pub. Every day of the year you can have a little bit of down home Irish hospitality at The Wolfhound in Itaewon. Inside there’s a no frills attitude. It […]

KMK: Gio Cat Cafe

April 12, 2010July 29, 2023 Brian Dye8854 Comments on KMK: Gio Cat Cafe

I should preface this by saying that I am a total dog person. In fact I find myself fond of Chihuahuas which one might think would make me a possible cat lover, but really I’m not. Cats just don’t do it for me, except for maybe Siamese cats which I have an unusual fascination of.  […]

KMK: Speakeasy at Club TA

April 8, 2010July 29, 2023 Brian Dye664Leave a Comment on KMK: Speakeasy at Club TA

A few Saturdays ago I hit up Club TA in Hongdae. I had never been there before, but a friend clued me in on a musical event being hosted there by the folks of Speakeasy. Live music sounded good to me and since the disastrous St. Patrick’s day event over at the Wolfhound I was keen on […]
