Seoul’s sauna and cruise club scene is relatively small and while most are open 24 hours most saunas are busy from early evening until the small hours. Most of the saunas and cruise clubs are located in the two main gay nightlife hubs, Itaewon’s Homo Hill and Jongro-3. Similar to nightlife most of Seoul’s gay saunas don’t get busy until late around 2-3 am when the guys start to leaving the clubs.
It is commonplace for gay saunas in Seoul to restrict access based on age, race, fitness and general ‘hotness’.
