West Coast Swing and Lindy Social Venues in Korea - updated December 2016


A friend of mine asked me to help compile this list as a reference for Westies traveling to Korea. As West Coast Swing is growing and gaining a foothold in Asian countries, more and more venues are beginning to open up for social dance and Korea is no different. In fact, if you know of any venues that is also having Lindy socials as well, do let me know and I'll update this list.

If there's any changes that I do not know about, do let me know by dropping a comment below as I'm not a Korean based in Korea, I can only rely on fellow travelers help in making sure this list is up to date.

Some people you can get confirmation with before your trip to Korea (Seoul) are:

1. All Star West Coast Swing Korea (Richard & Nam-lim)
2. Westie Korea (Sungjae Byun & Heejung Jung)
3. WesTurn Swing (JungEun Youn)
4. Swing Land

Have fun, have a safe trip and keep dancing.
