If you’ve always wanted to get a feel for Korean nightlife but never had the opportunity to get to Seoul, head to Boombar: It’s the next best thing.

Boombar is the first international branch of this Korean chain of nightclubs, which brands itself as a luxury hip-hop lounge. On weekdays, the Korean house DJs pump out a seamless stream of hip-hop tunes that we defy you not to bounce along to, and on weekend nights, guest DJs man the decks.

They’ve already hosted a couple of big parties and have had their premises graced by rock stars, pop stars, and NBA legends. Equipped with a wide selection of Champagne, models to up the glam factor, and a VIP room or two, it certainly ticks enough boxes to count as a luxury venue.

If you like your cocktails firmly on the sweet side, you’re sure to find something you like—the Beijing Boomojito is a jasmine-infused, honey affair that will leave you buzzing—but those without a sweet tooth can content themselves with martinis or imported beer.
