NIGHT FLOW
Four steps that reduce guesswork
- 1Choose one district, one main activity and a public checkpoint you can name to someone else. Travelling alone, the checkpoint is the plan.
- 2Check tonight's hours, seating and whether one person is served on the venue's own channel. Bar seats and counters are the reliable answer.
- 3Set your leave time against the last train before the first order, and tell one person at home which station you will be at.
- 4Record what you actually found in Footprints. A counter that serves one person well is the most useful thing you can leave the next traveller.
SAFETY & RETURN
Share landmarks, not your room
- Never leave a drink unattended or accept an opened drink from a stranger. Do not drive after drinking.
- Share only a public meeting point. Keep your accommodation address and live room details private.
- Use a licensed taxi, confirm the plate in the app and use 112 for an immediate police emergency.
CONSENT & ETIQUETTE
Drinks and second rounds are optional
- Ordering alcohol is optional and a clear no should end the offer. Drinking alone at a moderate pace is ordinary here and needs no explanation.
- Ask before photographing people, performers or another table, and follow the venue's camera policy.
- Keep voices and groups clear of residential doors, pavements and station gates, and decline an invitation that would move you somewhere unplanned.
MAKE IT YOURS
For Seoul across 2–4 hours, the thing to settle before the first order is how you get home.
Enter the last public service, a public landmark and a backup return in the night-return draft board and it stays on this device. It never asks for an accommodation address.
