How do I meet people in Korea?
When we asked people living in Korea about club and activities where newcomers can meet others, they responded...
"There are many clubs and activities. If you let me know your interests I can help you find what you need," mentioned another expat when asked about moving to Suwon, Korea.
"Daejeon offers a variety of activities for expats. There are book clubs, sports organizations, artist collectives, and volunteer opportunities. However, the frequency of participation tends to vary greatly, depending on the current expats living in Daejeon. Since the majority of the expats in Daejeon are EFL teachers serving one year contracts, there is quite a turnover and variance within the expat community. There is a monthly publication called the Daejeon Access that focuses on expat happenings. Also, other expat-oriented information can be found at hang-outs frequented by foreigners. Santa Claus (the best known bar in Daejeon) and Brickhouse (a very popular expat spot) are great places to plug into the Daejeon ex-pat "scene."," commented one expat who made the move to Daejeon, Korea.
