December could be the month for year-end.It's also the busiest season at room salons, where men often go after get-togethers to keep the party going.

 

Married women may in contrast to the idea, but you can find thousands of room salons in Seoul alone. And these bars are not your typical watering holes -- they're strictly for men, and included in their high prices could be the companionship of giggling young hostesses 홍대룸싸롱.

 

Unsurprisingly, in a country that's online clubs for everything, an Internet site for room salons is up.You'll see a listing of all of the salons in that area, with addresses, cell phone numbers, prices and photos. Click your method to the Gangnam district alone and 253 salons come up. One typical such salon, Kaos, charges no less than 270,000 won ($225) for two men, which includes a small bottle of whiskey, side dishes, soft drinks and a few new friends. But don't enter there thinking you'll escape with only that harm to your credit card. An evening can certainly run to 10 times that amount.

 

A member of staff at a space salon in Gangnam, Choi Hyun-woo, 28, said the Site brings in perhaps half the club's business. The website provides significantly more than basic information; it also has a "community" of members and a location where they are able to post messages.

 

One thing the male members of your website like to accomplish is what they call a "lightning bolt." One will ask if anybody wants to join him for a session at a room salon. Another will agree. They pick a salon and a period to generally meet, the sooner the better.

 

Over at the site's message board is another side of the story, as the ladies who work in the salons tell about their experiences, hopes, and frustrations.

 

One hostess, with the member name "Star," said in a post: "Although I'm really hungover now, I feel stronger because I'm earning lots of money. It's good that individuals have this web site where we could encourage each other."

 

Another complained about a really rude number of customers: "I've been doing this for two years, but this really is initially I've been asked to accomplish something that has been more than weird."

 

The only thing conspicuously missing from the website is advice for men to follow to ensure they don't go house with lipstick on the collars.
