The five-spice pork trotters are satisfying. I must eat them every time I go to Seoul. It’s super delicious. It tastes very good and is juicy enough. It’s a must-eat👍👍👍👍

There was a lot of engagement with the audience. Quite a few lucky ladies had lap dances and even went up on stage. There's no nudity as the guys only stripped to their underwears, but they are very muscular and handsome. It was tastefully done.

I was able to buy a 30,000W voucher for about 2,600 yen using the coupon, which was a great deal. When I showed the voucher to the store clerk, he was a little confused, but it turned out I just had to scan the barcode, so I was able to shop smoothly.
