Hey everyone --

I have just moved to Seoul for the year, and am looking for a good gym to call home while I'm here (and hopefully find a community of climbers to do some outdoor climbing as well). I've looked through the forums, but am still a little lost with Seoul geography :) My apartment is only a few steps from the Mapo station on line 5 -- can anyone suggest a nearby gym (or a gym convenient to metro line 5)?

Thanks!

Jong-Guk's Climbing center is only three stops from you and right next to Sun-yoo-do (선유도) subway station (line 9). You just have to transfer once at Yeouido station (line 5). Not sure about the exit number since Sun-Yoo-Do is a new station but I'm guessing that it's number 2. When exiting the station, walk straight for about 100 meters and you'll see signs. It's on the second floor, right above a bicycle shop. Basic gym but definitely one of the best training gyms in Korea. I usually go there mon, tues, thurs, fri around 7pm.
