Bars and Pubs in Itaewon

Drinking spots in Itaewon — soju bars, beer halls, pojangmacha and makgeolli houses.

Itaewon has 51 bars and pubs licensed and operating, as of 2026-08-11.Source: business-licence data published by Korea's Ministry of the Interior and Safety. Updated daily; closed businesses excluded.

Seoul's international quarter. The widest choice of non-Korean cooking in the country, and halal-friendly restaurants clustered near the Seoul Central Mosque.

Korean drinking is built around anju — food ordered alongside the alcohol, not optional in most places. Soju and beer are the standard pair (mixed together it is called somaek); makgeolli, a cloudy rice brew, is usually drunk with savoury pancakes. Pouring your own glass is avoided: you pour for others and they pour for you.
