I have been to Itaewon a total of three times now and out of those three, two were to experience the night life. You should know that Itaewon is home of one of the largest military bases in Seoul and that it is always full of nothing but foreigners. It's actually quite odd. You can literally cross one street where you're solely among Koreans and then BAM! Hello westerners! Itaewon is a great place to shop as they tend to carry more western sizes. They also have a plethora of diverse and cultural restaurants. So most people go there to eat really delicious, over-priced food.
Anyways, as for the night life, what I've experienced hasn't been that great. Every bar is packed with military guys and its like every time you walk in the door, military guys with wedding bands come flocking. I find it rather annoying. However, I do hear this district is home of many homosexuals and transsexuals. That night life I would much rather experience. But until then, I'm not in any hurry to go back!
