Hey guys. Mentioned I would be visiting Korea a while back, will be heading to Seoul in a few days now. I know people recommended that I visit The Cong for some umvc3 action. Anything special happening from June 4th-11th? Any other places one might recommend?
No special events I know of, but I’d recommend hitting up ArcadeStream though.
Awesome, thanks for the tip 
Any particular days/times when these places are most full? I’ll probably only get one chance to visit each place (The Cong and AS) since I’ll be vacationing with the wife, so I’d like to make the most of my visit if possible
If anyone’s around, going to try out arcadestream in the evening today, will probably try cong tomorrow.
edit: Upon further research, so wait, is AS actually just a darts bar with occasional fighting game events? If that’s the case maybe I’ll try Cong today instead.
AS has SF most days of the week, if you have Kakaotalk get at philly-one before you head out to make sure.

RagingStormX, why does your name sound really familiar? I’ve been here in Korea for a few years already and I know some people on here. When I go to Osan here in November I will jump back into fighting games. Been out of it since I got to Korea due to DDR And Pump It Up hahaha.
Manny (and anyone else lurking in the area), there’s a local tournament tomorrow here in Osan July 3 @ 1300 in the E Club ballroom. Did you extend in Korea?
Yeah. I extended in Korea. My follow on is to osan sometime in November (though I hear rumor that might change)
Unfortunately I have a doctors appointment tomorrow so I’m staying in gunsan although I will be in osan on Saturday for a little bit.
I passed word about the tournament to some buddies of mine here in Kunsan and they said they were interested so maybe they might show.
Will you make it to the Saturday tournament?
I was all over the forums in the CvS2 days and if you play Alpha 2 I’m the one whole created the tutorial thread on here. Also played a lot of ST/A2 of GGPO.
Sent you a FR as well, Jeffrey Hill.
