Hello everyone,
I will be moving to Korea in September, and will get married on October 2nd with a traditional ceremony. However, I do not want my party to be over after just an hour or so, so I was looking for a nice lounge bar or something like that in Busan to have an after-party for my guests, mostly coming from abroad. I know there's plenty of places to go to in Haeundae, but can anyone suggest somewhere not too loud and crowded, where it would be possible to have a conversation while drinking and possibly dance too?
Thank you in advance for your help!

I would say some 20 to 25 people, and we wouldn't need the place all by ourselves of course; I just wanted to book a table and mainly have drinks and enjoy some good music. This would be after dinner, I would say no earlier than 9:30 or 10 pm.
I read about 24/7 on BusanHaps, do you think that could be a choice?

24/7 could be a possiblility. It's a pretty cool bar and from what I understand the owners are Western friendly. I guess it depends on what you could over them in terms of takings compared to a regular Saturday night. I only went there for the Busan Haps launch party, so not sure what it's like on a 'normal' night.
The people at Busan Haps might be able to give you a contact.
Re: Lounge Bar
@Paul: Your idea sounds very good; we'll definitely give it some thought, although I must say we're not worried about mingling with strangers... all we want to do is have a drink and chat and possibly dance. We'll check rock'n'roll too, just in case. Thank you! :)
@tharp42: thank you, we'll check out Sharky's too :)
@mattsid: I live in China right now and for some reason I cannot access the busanhaps website, but I did pick up the magazine at the airport, might as well send them a mail or something. Thank you!

247 is actually a great option, (though I would pay to watch Tharp tear his skin off cause it's kindof a turn on) if you can get the music problem worked out-- its got great seating, very cool layout, pool and darts. The manager's name is James if you need his number drop me a line, he speaks great English and I am sure he will do whatever you like.
But you better cater on your own, menu is a little spotty.
Sharky's is good if not crowded and Geckos gives you the option of indoor and outdoor seating right on the beach.

Re: Lounge Bar
I went to 24/7 once (Busan Haps party) and wanted to tear my skin off. If you want to go to a place where you want to have a conversation this is not the place. When I was there they blared terrible terrible hip hop music and deafening levels. It was awful.
I'd suggest Sharky's in Haeundae. It's a bit small but may be perfect.
