19+ only. Bring your physical passport — photos or copies are not accepted at the door. Korean clubs check ID at the door.
Do I pay anything online?+
No. Nothing is paid on HANBAM. Entry and tables are paid at the venue; partner bookings are paid on the partner site.
How do I get back after a late night?+
The Seoul subway stops running around midnight, so plan on a taxi. Each festival page lists the late-night taxi time to Gangnam.
