whats the best gym (or gyms) in the haeundae area?

 

Looking for a decent gym in the haeundae area.  Main criteria is a decent selection of free weights and a smith machine.

I joinded a gym the other day beside e-mart. Its good and has lots of free weights, I didnt check if there was a smith machine but id say there probably is. 

Also its really good value compared to most other places at just 55k/month or 130k for 3 months. 

Its right by jung dong station exit 1, 3rd floor of the building on your right when you come out.

hope this helps.

Why not go to that gym that the Korean UFC / K1 guy works out at, Choi Hong Man I think he's called. Not saying you should go there for celebrity spotting, but if an international athlete works out there, I guess they must have some pretty decent equipment. Name of the place is escaping me right now. I want to say Chicago gym, but not sure.

There's another one in near Jung-dong.  It's called Iaan Health and it's above a crab restaurant beside the Iaan building (go out exit 10).  It's similar in price (I don't remember exactly) and just opened a few months ago, so it's never too busy.

I'm not sure how it compares to the one mentioned before.  I think it has a smith machine but I might be remembering something else.  There aren't *that* many free weights, but as I said it's not busy.
