Intro To Sex Tourism In Seoul
The paid scene in Seoul is… complicated. A lot of places simply won’t serve foreigners.
If you don’t speak Korean, your chances drop fast. And yes, race plays a role.
Some places have extra fees for white guys, and many are completely closed off to black men. It’s not fair, but it’s the reality.
Anything that offers full service with Koreans is notoriously hard to get into for foreigners. Put simply, Korean men do not want to see foreign guys with their women.
That said, the scene isn’t entirely dead. Certain red light areas like Itaewon, Hongdae, and Gangnam are known for local girls who are open to hooking up with non-Koreans.
Some even travel across the city just to meet white guys. So it really depends on the vibe, the area, and your approach.
These areas have bars and clubs where you can meet girls interested in foreign men… Or you can engage the services of glass window girls on the street.
The most popular red light areas are…
- Hooker Hill (Itaewon) – Once the go-to for foreigners, now much quieter but still has a few working bars.
- Yeongdeungpo (YDP) – Known for its “glass houses,” though many spots turn away foreigners.
- Miari Texas – Traditional brothel alley near Gireum Station, still active but fading.
I’ll touch more on the foreigner friendly red light districts in Seoul in the next part of this guide.
What About Girls And Sex
There are quite a lot of pretty, bright and beautiful girls with great bodies in Seoul. They know how to dress and look after themselves.
While hooking up with a Korean girl as a foreigner isn’t impossible, it’s no cakewalk either.
Most attractive girls don’t do one-night stands unless they’re already into you.
They might act reserved, pretend to be drunk, or play hard to get even for something as basic as a kiss.
Some are also known to be superficial or snobby, especially if you’re flying solo in bars, which many Korean girls see as cringe.
Like in Japan, girls in Korea don’t speak much English, especially the prettiest one. You might start a conversation, but it’s hard to keep going.
Not to forget, girls here are also kind of passive. They expect men to lead the conversation and everything else, for that matter.
You are going to decide where to go, how to do it and when to do it. That’s exactly why a lot of mongers fail. They hesitate or don’t take charge.
Where to Find Sex in Seoul
In this section, I’ll walk you through the best spots to hook up with local Korean women starting with…
1. Online
In recent years the internet has opened new opportunities to hook up with local girls. From the university girls that need extra cash to couples who are into threesomes.
When you are in your 40s+ and you want a much younger lady for a relationship with benefits, your only option is to use a site like Sugar Daddy Meet.
There you’ll find many university students eager to meet your needs without all the drama that usually comes with a regular relationship.
In the case you’re only after casual sex, on an adult dating site like Asian Match Mate you’ll find horny singles and couples.
Just create a profile, let the community know that it’s your first time in Seoul, and it won’t take long before someone invites you for a booty call, a threesome, or an invitation to a private sex party.
2. Nightclubs & Pick Up Bars
If you would like to party and meet Korean girls with foreign men, you should consider hanging out at Itaewon and Hongdae.
Itaewon is widely known as Seoul’s international nightlife hub. The women who hang out here are more open to foreigners.
Hongdae, on the other hand, is younger, wilder, and more local. This university area is packed with clubs and bars full of Gen Z Koreans and English teachers in their 20s.
Some people say Hongdae isn’t ideal for mongering because it’s too “local-focused”.
But in my opinion, that’s exactly what makes it a good option because there are also more Korean women. If you’re willing to handle a few rejections, your odds can actually be much better.
That said, here’s the list of the best pick-up joints in Seoul…
- Prost Pub & Grill (Itaewon)
A European-style pub/club that has always catered to an international crowd, so most staff speak English. Pickup chances are decent, people chat over beer games or board games.
- Blacklist Irish Pub (Itaewon)
A lively pub beloved by expats also in Itaewon. It’s explicitly “super foreigner friendly”. The crowd (20s–30s) is a mix of Westerners and friendly Koreans.
Korean women here tend to be sociable and enjoy karaoke or drinking games. Because it’s noisy and casual, it’s easy to strike up conversations.
- Mike’s Cabin (Hongdae)
A popular dance bar with a Latin/pop/hip-hop playlist. It has a mix of Korean college students and many foreign visitors. Girls are typically 20-25, fashionable and ready to dance. This is a strong pick-up spot.
Thursday Party (Hongdae): A well-known expat bar chain. It feels like a college house party: casual, loud, with beer-pong tables.
The crowd is primarily comprised of international students and local young adults. The atmosphere encourages interaction, so it’s easy to meet people.
- Corner Pub (Hongdae)
Very similar to the Thursday Party (and often mentioned in the same breath). It’s likewise full of friendly foreigners and young Koreans. Pick-up chances are equally high.
3. Red Light Districts
Seoul’s red-light districts still exist, but they’re a shadow of what they used to be.
Government crackdowns have pushed much of the sex industry underground.
That said, there are still a few areas around the city where you can find window brothels or P4P options.
Please note that access is limited, especially for foreigners, and the overall quality has declined in recent years.
So, let’s start with the most popular red light area:
- Hooker Hill (Itaewon)
Hooker Hill used to be the go-to red-light area for foreigners in Seoul.
These days, though, the place is mostly dead. Only a handful of spots are still open, and most girls working there are older and less attractive.
If you’re looking for Filipina or Thai freelancers, you might still find them in some of the bars, but the days of reliable action on the Hill are over.
Prices: Expect to pay around 100,000 KRW for a session for about 15 minutes. The service depends on the girl, and it’s mostly HJ and BJ, but sometimes you can get full-service. Beware steep “lady drink” prices (~15,000–20,000 KRW each).
Verdict: Not worth the trip anymore. You’re better off checking out Itaewon’s nightlife scene for non-paid encounters.
- Yeongdeungpo (YDP)
Yeongdeungpo is one of the last semi-active red-light districts in Seoul.
You’ll find the classic “glass houses” here, rooms with girls sitting in the window waiting for clients.
Unfortunately, many places in YDP are known to turn away foreigners, especially white or dark-skinned men. If you’re Asian, you might have better luck.
Even when accepted, foreigners are often charged more. And if you don’t speak Korean, you’ll likely have a tough time navigating.
Prices: hover 100,000 KRW for 15 minutes, but you can try negotiating. Anything much over that could mean you’re getting hustled.
Verdict: Still running, but not easy to access for most foreigners. Go at night, and don’t expect much more than a fast, mechanical experience.
- Other Areas (Like Miari)
Other famous red-light areas like Miari Texas (which was the last remaining brothel cluster in Seoul) is also on a decline.
There’s a government crackdown against prostitution in the area.
These days, only a few discreet shops remain, and they operate quietly to avoid drawing attention.
The scene is much smaller, less consistent, and much harder to find if you’re not already in the know.
Prices: If you do find a place, expect to pay 90,000–150,000 KRW for 30 minutes.
Verdict: Miari Texas is fading fast. It’s no longer a place you can just walk into expecting easy access. If you do go, keep expectations low and your approach discreet.
4. Erotic Massage Parlours – Anma
Anmas are Korea’s version of erotic massage parlours, often referred to as “soapy massages.”
They’ve replaced many traditional red-light areas and now serve as the main go-to for paid encounters in a cleaner, spa-like setting.
The usual setup involves a shower, full-body massage with gel or soap, and full service (typically covered).
Most of them don’t advertise openly because the scene is technically illegal… And many turn away foreigners.
Even if you get in, there’s often a “foreigner fee” or a separate pricing tier for non-Koreans, especially if you’re not Asian.
Here are three Anmas that are foreigner-friendly:
• Donuts Anma (Gangnam)
Donuts is one of the most foreign-friendly erotic massage parlors in Seoul, located near the CU Samseong 1st Branch in Gangnam.
It’s known for classic soapy massages that include full service in a private room.
Most girls are tall, slim, and heavily made-up; you’ll usually get to pick your girl through a glass wall before the session starts.
Pricing:
- 260,000 KRW (~$195) for Asians
- 300,000 KRW (~$225) for non-Asians (includes 40,000 KRW “foreigner fee”)
- If you’re feeling adventurous, you can even add a second girl for 100,000 KRW (~$75) for 30 minutes.
• Castle Anma (Seolleung Station)
Castle Anma is about 150 meters from Exit 4 of Seolleung Station, just turn between Orange Life and Lotteria, and look for the sign that says Seo Ho Massage & Spa.
This spot is known for offering full-service nuru sessions, and it does accept foreigners.
That said, the experience can be inconsistent. Some guys get lucky with a fit, energetic girl in her 20s; other times, you’re paired with someone older or less enthusiastic.
There’s no lineup; you get who’s assigned to you. Service quality depends on timing, your luck, and sometimes your race.
Pricing:
- 180,000 to 360,000 KRW (~$135–$270)
- Price varies based on time, your race, and even the mood of the staff
• Dao Massage
Dao Massage sits on the 7th floor of a building in Nonhyeon-dong, Gangnam, and is one of the few anmas in Seoul that openly accepts foreigners.
The experience feels a bit like a conveyor belt, you’re greeted by an older mama-san, shown about six available girls (mostly in their 30s or 40s), then briefly massaged by a few before one main girl takes over.
Pricing:
- 270,000 KRW (~$200) for 1 shot
5. Escorts
Escorts in Seoul can be tricky to find, especially for foreigners.
Most websites are in Korean, and many providers either ignore messages from non-Koreans or flat-out refuse bookings.
The most well-known site is Opgani, but even accessing it might require being in Korea or using workarounds.
Even then, getting a reply or a booking is hit or miss.
You’ll come across plenty of escort sites with a quick online search, but there are two big downsides:
- Prices are steep. Expect to pay 250,000 KRW ($185) for the cheapest girl, and up to 400,000 KRW ($300) for top-tier options.
- Bait-and-switch is common. Photos often don’t match the girl who shows up.
Even when everything lines up, the service is usually cold and mechanical.
These girls are all business, little conversation, no connection, and definitely no GFE. For most guys, Seoul escorts offer the least value for money in the city’s adult scene.
6. Kiss Rooms
Kiss Rooms (or Kissbangs) are a unique type of adult service in South Korea where you basically make out with cute university girls in a private room.
It’s meant to feel like being her boyfriend for half an hour.
But if you don’t speak Korean, most girls will be cold or uninterested.
Some spots offer extras like HJ or BJ for an added fee, but full service is usually off the table. The girl may let you suck her nipples too if she likes you.
Prices start around 60,000 to 90,000 KRW (~$45–$70) for 50–60 minutes. Extras cost more depending on what you negotiate.
Finding a Kiss Room is tricky. They go by vague names like “Secret” or “K21” and rarely have signs.
Look out for scattered business cards, ask a taxi driver in Gangnam, or have a Korean-speaking friend help you.
Typical Prices
When visiting a business that sells sex, the prices are fixed and can’t be negotiated.
Here is a list of standard prices for each business type:
• Erotic Massage Parlors: Quick services in barber-style shops go for 40,000–50,000 KRW. Independent massage rooms offering FS typically start at 100,000–150,000 KRW.
• Anma Parlors: Standard sessions range from 180,000 to 360,000 KRW and include a bath, nuru massage, BBBJ, and covered sex. Foreigners often pay more.
• Love Hotels: Rooms cost at least 25,000 KRW for one hour. Some hotels can call a girl for you, but her rate usually starts at 250,000 KRW.
• Escorts: Expect to pay 250,000–400,000 KRW per hour. Photos are often fake and the service is hit-or-miss. Most providers are mechanical and not into small talk.
• Kissbangs (Kiss Rooms): Entry fees range from 60,000 to 90,000 KRW for 50 minutes to 1 hour. Extras like HJ, BJ can push the total to 200,000 KRW or more. Foreigners may be charged higher.
If paying a girl for sex isn’t your thing, consider reading the next section where I explain how to get a vacation girlfriend in Seoul.
How To Get a Holiday Girlfriend in Seoul
Are you searching for a girlfriend in Seoul? But you don’t know where to get started. Don’t worry, I’m going to show you how to find one.
A girlfriend is the best way to enjoy your stay in Seoul and never to feel lonely. Enjoying each other’s company, visiting places and getting intimate are just a few of the benefits.
Imagine having a Korean girlfriend…
She is ready to do anything to please you. Expect all the good things only a girlfriend is capable of offering.
That is a boost to your self-confidence, without mentioning how invidious your friends and colleagues will be.

The best way to get a top-notch girlfriend in Seoul is to use a site like Sugar Daddy Meet. Plenty of Korean girls are looking for friendship and more.
Just be friendly and sociable, enjoy talking to the girls and when you find the perfect match, just tell her you’ll come soon to see her.
Best Sex Hotels In Seoul
Sex hotels are commonly known as love hotels in Korea. They sound romantic but in reality, couples and single hunters go there to get laid with sexy Korean girls.
So, if you are planning to hunt down girls in Seoul, these are my favorite erotic hotels to stay:
- IP Boutique Hotel – Located near restaurants and bars in Itaewon, it’s the perfect place to bring girls to have fun.
- Hotel the Designers Seoul Station – If you like design, class, and a convenient location and are looking for a great erotic playground, this hotel offers it all.
- Seoul Shilla Hotel – This hotel is a great choice to impress the girls and get them wet. The window overlooking the bathroom is great to watch the girls taking a bath.
This concludes this Seoul Sex Guide. Have fun!
