Bar and Club names also welcome as an answer.


Answer
Only a week?? =(

So!~ TOP areas for drinking and partying : Shincheon, Itaewon `n Gangnam!
The streets in these areas are just crazy on Friday `n Saturday nights lined up with a pack bars, drinking places, karaoke lounges, billiards rooms, cafes, restaurants, fast food stands, games you can play to win gifts, etc. etc. The drinking culture in S.Korea is just awesome!
I won`t mention any bar names cos I recommend you to go to Korean drinking places rather than bars, since you are gonna be in Seoul! Try this when you drink soju... in a mug of beer get the shot filled glass of soju `n just slide it in `n gulp down that mixture. Pretty sweet.
A for clubbing, GO TO Club Answer! This is just the hottest club in the city. You can find it in Gangnam.
Check out this website for other clubs - http://korea.wikia.com/wiki/Clubs_in_Seoul

If you wanna sightsee drop off at City Hall, get a brochure, look at the attractions map in th City Hall Station... You can find most of the palaces, temples around there in just one area. Some palace examples : Changdeokgung Palace, Gyeongbokgung Palace.
`N you have to go to Namsan Park, Namsan Tower! But get there in te evening when the scenery is just breath-taking. Not too far off to Namsam Tower, there`s Seodaemun Prison you can check out. It`s a prison built by the Japanese during the rule of S.Korea. Too bad for me that last year it was still under reformation... T_T
I almost forgot! Hang out in the late evening/ night time around Cheonggyecheon Stream. It`s close by to City Hall, so you can go there after seeing around palaces `n stuff.

Have you seen a magical castle with a blue roof `n an indoor skating rink in Korean movies or dramas? That`s in Lotte World, it`s next to Lotte Hotel `n this I recommend here if you wanna go to an amusement park. They also have an indoor roller coaster there.

As previously mentioned, for a hang out in a mall CoEx Mall is my answer. One of the biggest mall in Seoul `n they also have an aquarium there as well as MegaBox cinema `n a variety of restaurants. If you wanna eat steak, the got Bennigans `n TGI Fridays =] Another mall suggestion would be Lotte Mart but I prefer CoEx. As for buying souveniors, best to go to Namdaemun Market.

While you`re there try get to eat bulgogi `n kalbi (Korean BBQ.) You can find places that provide them along with alcohol. Also you can find sannakji (live baby octopus) in drinking places. It might sound inhumane but it`s an experience especially with soju. `N tteokbokki (rice cake with sauce)! You can usually find them being sold on the road sides. They`re displayed in a large tray with rice cakes in an orangish reddish sauce with fries on the side.

There`s so much more to add in but, you`ll find other things to do once you`ve arrived there so have fun! =D

Presents for a traditional 100th day of birth (Korean Tradition)?




lilstarz


I've been invited to a traditional Korean baek-il. A baek-il is the celebration of the 100th day of birth for a child. What is expected to be brought as presents for the child by guests? I tried to Google it, but not seeing much info at all. I just read that family members bring gold rings for the child? Is that all what is expected, or is there something else I can bring? Thanks in advance!


Answer
100 shots!

Na, in all seriousness I don't think it matters what you bring. I've been in your situation. The baby got ONE gold ring from the grandparents, but others just bought random things... It was like a birthday party gift. Teddy bears, those push cart things for babies, etc.
