One of the last truly alternative spaces in the Hongdae-Yeonnam-dong area, this cultural space and bar turns itself into a club and lounge on weekends and is especially popular with the artsy crowd. Drinks are cheap and a lot of mingling happens outside where partygoers go for a smoke or a breath of fresh air.
Formerly located near Hapjeong Station, Channel 1969 attracts a diverse crowd of people from all over the world and is a rare place in Korea where people of a wide age range can hang out. Indie rock shows are held on a regular basis, while a handful of resident DJs hold down the fort.
