Groove - Hongdae Station (홍대입구역, line 2)

My Korean indie musician friends have been telling me to try playing at Groove, which is located out of exit 1 of Hongdae Station (홍대입구역, line 2). It's supposed to be spacious, clean and have good instruments, though an American friend of mine felt it was a little sterile. Guess I'll just have to see for myself. There are 4 rooms that range from 12,000-20,000 won/hr, and you can also rent guitars and effects pedals.

You can choose from Room A:


Room B:


Room C:
