Open past midnight

3 spots · picked by our Korean team

Seoul nights have a way of not ending when you planned. Dinner wraps, someone says 'one more,' and suddenly it's 1 AM and half the city is closed. These three aren't: a purple-lit alley bar near Soongsil University taking orders until 1:10 AM, an owner-run football pub in Dongjak pouring until 3, and a late-night gamjatang house in Yeoksam that never closes at all. Work down the list and the night ends whenever you decide.
