BAKÁH Live @Mudaeruk Seoul, South Korea 01/02/16 

Mudaeruk is a cafe/restaurant/bar located in Hongdae (closer to Sangsu station).  I personally don’t enjoy going out to Hongdae area especially on weekends, because it’s sooo packed with people from everywhere. It’s probably because of my age, as I get older, I prefer to sit down and have a chat in a quiet place. 

I recently visited Mudaeruk and found this side of Hongdae much enjoyable to hang out, simply because it’s less crowded. It’s near from Sangsu station and still pretty close to the main Hongdae district. I would definitely come back to Sangsu area next time than hang out in Hongdae main areas.  Mudaeruk was a good place to have a sit and have a drink (maybe a glass of homemade Ale). They serve a variety of whiskey by glass and I was happily surprised that they even have some of my favorite Single Malt such as Talisker!  I’d like to come back here for a concert next time. 

(+) Spacious, variety selection of food & drinks, good music, art-friendly, somker-friendly, often has live gigs, great young vibe

(-) Could play better music (can’t really find anything to complain)

Mudaeruk (or Mu, as it is sometimes affectionately called) was started by Kim Geon-ah and two fellow indie musician friends who wanted to create a casual gathering space for music lovers. They recently relocated to a converted warehouse, a white-walled, cement floor space that is enormous but still fills up with Hongdae’s young and artsy crowd. They occasionally showcase the work of up-and-coming artists on their walls, but the main cultural attraction is the concert space in their basement where the good work of supporting indie musicians continues on. The first-floor café exists for the purpose of funding this project, so grab a few friends and get drinks and eats before the next show. For double karma, order one of Mu’s new “sharing boards,” wooden cutting boards loaded with small bites—for every board, 2,000 won goes to Save the Children’s local projects here in Korea.
