Has anyone here been to a Korean stand-up comedy show?
I was wondering how many people living in Korea have actually tried Korean stand-up comedy.
Most shows are entirely in Korean, so I imagine they can be a bit intimidating for non-native speakers. At the same time, it seems like a fun way to experience local humor and practice listening.
Our club is trying to make it a little more accessible, so for one upcoming show we're offering a 50% discount for foreign residents in Korea. The performance is still 100% in Korean—the discount is simply meant to encourage more people to give Korean stand-up a try.
The show is Kim Dong-ha – Welcome to Korea at Meta Comedy Club Hongdae on Friday, July 17 at 5 PM.
Has anyone here been to a Korean stand-up show before? I'd love to hear what you thought, or whether this is something you'd be interested in trying.
