LGBT in Busan?

just curious if there is any LGBT-friendly bars/groups in busan?  haven't seen a real topic yet discussing the places to hang-out.

If anyone knows of other relevant links for Busan or Korea, please post them below in a comment and we can turn this into a basic LGBT Guide. 

Re: LGBT in Busan?

Totally different things are happening depending on whether you're male or female.

Male: most things going on in Beomil-dong as far as I know.

Female: 3 lesbian bars in Seomyeon. A group called Busan Sisters meets once or twice a month for organized chaos.

Re: LGBT in Busan?

If you are a gay man, I would suggest Beomil-dong area.  Apparently, there is a gay district near Hyundai Dept.  It's sort of hidden.  There are gay bars that are foreign friendly I hear.  If you are a woman, I think there are a couple of lesbian bars.  One is in Seomyon near Migliore.  I would suggest visiting the web site Utopia Korea.  It has a lot of information of places where you can meet other people.  It would be nice to have that community out of the closet here in Korea, though.

Beomil-dong is right, the back alleys and the entrance is at the rear.

I can't find Busan Sisters on FB, is it a hidden/secret group? How can I get added to it? Thanks.
