Hi Sam, welcome to Busan!!!
In Korea, it's a bit more expensive. Cheapest way to get is buying it through on-line shop. In Busan, two shops I'd like to recommend, one is Mountain bank located Jungang-dong far west from Haeundae, the other is Maneo sanjang located Yeonsan-dong 20 minutes cab ride from Haeundae. PM me if you interested, I will let you know the direction. I can also get one for you through on-line shop if you want.
Hi Chris,
There is a gym open 24 hours, unlocked all day long, it's small but I believe enough to train, on top of that, monthly fee is only 20000 KRW only!!! It's really really hard to clue you in the direction. I have a coupla days free in the mornings throughout weekdays. If you want to check the gym with me, pm me. Even better climbing mornings.
Hey all newers,
I will post a small meet and greet for Busan Kotrers on upcomnig trip thread.
Check it out!!

Dong-il,
I am looking for a good gym also. Can you post directions on here for everyone? What neighborhood is it in? Thanks.

It's called PC rock climbing gym located near Minam subway station.
Really hard to tell the direction but here you are ;
Go out exit 6 of Minam subway station on line 3, walk straight the road toward Sehwa hospital(세화병원) for about 300m(5minutes) and turn right at the hospital, walk up the hilly road for about 150m(3 minutes). You will reach a 4 way small intersection with a small store on your left. Turn left at the intersection and walk down for about 50m. The gym is on your right with the sign saying PC rock climbing gym.
This gym is relatively small but fair enough to train and people are so friendly.
Good luck!!!
