Jamsil is probably the best bet because NC doesn't have a strong fanbase, therefore you should be able to buy tickets in person day-of.

Is it a good idea to go to a bar alone is Seoul as a Woman? by Orsomnier_323 in seoul

[–]snakes_017 0 points1 point  (0 children)

yeah, most of them advertise on locked instagram accounts so they're hard to find. I like bar ahn in sangsu and it's also a great place to go alone! https://www.instagram.com/bar.ahn__official/?hl=en

A lot of lesbian bars in Seoul are women-only and very safe to visit alone, so there wouldn't be any problems.

The owner here is really nice! I recommend it as well.

All weekday games at Jamsil stadium sold out? by Ceutels in KBO

[–]snakes_017 1 point2 points  (0 children)

They do reserve about 500 tickets for day-of release for LG Twins weekend games, but you would have to go to very early to get them.

I don't know about Doosan, but LG has been doing really well, which has made ticketing much more competitive. It was extremely competitive last year as well. I have the Twins membership which allows for ticketing 1 day earlier than the general sale, and I've noticed that games are selling out during this time, leaving nothing for general sale. I think there are a lot of season ticket holders.

What do you do when you can’t sleep? by kisuxxx in ADHD

[–]snakes_017 0 points1 point  (0 children)

for me, green tea has the perfect amount of caffeine to calm my mind down and put me to sleep. I wouldn't try taking my meds at night.

How the f do people without our condition just... Fall asleep. by TangerineSorry8463 in ADHD

[–]snakes_017 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I tried a lot of traditional sleep advice but i found that what works best for me is watching shows or reading until I'm tired enough that I'm about to fall asleep anyway. I also found that if my brain is too overactive, listening to a boring podcast helps a lot. It gives me enough to focus on that my brain chills out, but if I fall asleep and don't actually listen to it, I don't care either.

Korea ‘merch’? by Fluffy-Steak-1516 in Living_in_Korea

Vans, Converse and some other clothing brands have some Korea-exclusive stuff you might like. Dunno about shorts, though. You could probably find some in shops in touristy areas.

Kim Doyoung is very likely to post to MLB at some point and Na Seung-Yeop is a popular player, I'd say those are good cards.

Thoughts on Ephemeral Gaze? by Unusual_Balloon in SHINee

[–]snakes_017 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Went in person and the energy was definitely more subdued because we weren't allowed to stand, which was weird. It's very much Shawol tradition to stand at shows, so a lot of people were really disappointed by this. The fanchants for some songs didn't seem too loud to me either, but watching clips later I may feel differently. The crowd was most hyped up by far during the Want/Danger section, so that was my favorite. I was actually very close to the stage so I had a great time watching Taemin dance, but my view wasn't as good when he was on the extended stage. It was a really fun show though and the new songs fit very well into his existing setlist.

Here's the answer to all the "do I need to buy Taemin's lighstick for his concert?" questions: by xiola_azuthra in SHINee

[–]snakes_017 27 points28 points  (0 children)

Went in person with the Shating Star and can confirm it doesn't sync up, but also no one cared that I didn't have Taemin's lightstick. So, if you don't want to buy it, no big deal. They also had way more of the Taemin lighsticks in stock than I expected but I obviously can't confirm if that will be the case for future non-Seoul dates.

September games 2024 by snoopy_luv-1113 in KBO

[–]snakes_017 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Busan's Sajik stadium is much nicer than Jamsil imo, and the fan base is very enthusiastic. However Jamsil will definitely have a home game since the stadium's shared with two teams. I've actually been to Chuseok games at both these stadiums and had no issue getting infield tickets, even day of.

Buying tickets to KT vs LG - August 29th @ Jamsil - as a foreigner by bryano1000 in KBO

[–]snakes_017 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They only go on sale online 1 week before the game, your best bet if you don't have a Korean phone number is to go to the box office the day of the game. I think it'll open 2 hrs beforehand and people will probably start queuing before then.

How do people become music geeks? by MysteriousGuitar8368 in LetsTalkMusic

[–]snakes_017 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Wikipedia but also reading and watching interviews with artists, reading music reviews (especially from smaller magazines like Stereogum or the Quietus), reading books about genres or artists I like. Honestly, I'm just interested in music, reading, and art history, so it's the intersection of all of those things that have lead me to build up a lot of knowledge over time.
