Jail Joa
Jail Joa is a "jail"-themed Korean pub. What does that mean exactly? Well, there are metal bars separating the different "cells" (dining rooms) in this neon-orange bar/restaurant, which is as deep as the oddball theme gets. The huge pink photo booth, disco ball, swirling LED lights, and K-Pop music do not scream incarceration. The main reason to go to Jail Joa, however, is to eat excellent bar food on plastic stools with pitchers of beer and soju— get the whole fried chicken that bursts with juice when you bite in.
