ROCK & ROLL

This Apkujong pub has been around for quite some time. I remember drinking tequila tabascos here as far back as 2000. Rock and Roll has two floors. The bottom floor has a square bar with tables flanking two sides of it. In the warmer months, there are also tables on the sidewalk and the floor-to-celing wood doors are open to the street. This venue is predominantly made with wood and looks like a pub where college kids in America would typically hang out. These days, the 'western style' theme is a bit outdated. However, no matter how outdated the decor becomes, Rock and Roll will always remain a popular spot due to it's super primo location in the heart of the Rodeo shopping district in Apkujong. Furthermore, this corner seems to have a good energy (feng shui) flowing through it.
Rock and Roll plays rock music and hosts a very eclectic crowd. There are pretty Apku girls on a break from shopping, local Koreans, rockers with Harleys, expats, kyopos. It's impossible to know what kind of crowd will be there on any given day, however Rock and Roll is unmistakably a great people watching spot. You can be mellow, get crazy, go there late at night. Whatever! I've never had a bad time at this bar. One big drawback to this pub is that drinks are expensive. A hite prime for example costs 8000 won, but that's Apkujong for you.
