Going to be in South Korea for a few days - don't know if have time, but can anyone recommend a place in Seoul?

Theres a LCDH at the Hotel Grand Intercontinental , just near the trade center which is a nice place.

And there is the cigar club of Seoul in the Namsong Building, Suite 402 (entrance floor).

Find the time...

Actually from the six months spent in Seoul I can tell you there is a very active cigar community going on.

In Korea success is not a bad word, most still smoke cigarettes but you will find quite a lot who smoke cigars and the ban on smoking is confined to western places.

I think there are some more places, also not a bad Humidor at the Airport...

will definitely try to pick some stuff up at the duty free at the airport...

thanks mate

Just to update this, there is a cigar lounge in Itaewon called BURN. Live jazz, decent selection, and great drink choices. They have a website.

Thanks for the suggestion.  By sheer fluke I both saw your post before arriving in Seoul and happened to be staying nearby.

Their cigar menu wasn't bad, but during my visit a fair few options were out of stock.  They did have quite the array of whisky to choose from though.

Glad it helped! I agree there could be a better selection, but the PSP2 I had was quite nice, and like you said the drink selection was very good. Comfortable place as well.
