Soul Trane
Type of Establishment: Bar/ Dance
Club Location: Near Pusan National University.
From the main gate: walk out and make the first left. Walk straight about three
blocks or so and turn right when you see Crossroads Bar on the left. Soul Trane
is down on the right next to a chicken joint. Review:
Soul Trane has been one of the main expat hangouts for a while now--mainly
English teachers, but a fair few soldiers and the occasional suits straggle in.
Also a lot of Koreans, many from the university and often willing and able to
speak English. It's not that big and it gets pretty packed
on weekends. They have a good selection of CDs (requests are encouraged) and the
music is generally good--a mix of rock, folk, jazz, and electronic. The staff
is very cool and they all speak English. Nothing crazy on the
menu--there is anju, but very few come here to eat. Stays open late (about sunrise)
on weekends, and rocks into the early morning. Great place to get in touch with
the expat community and your baser instincts. |
