I visited here in April 2026, 20K won for foreigner. My experience was super good. Many good looking local guys and Asian tourists (I did not see Western people here). Of course if you have a nice body, people will reach you. I had a great time here in the dark rooms. Will visit again!

The counter told me to lift up my shirt first to check if I had abs. Then he made a long “ohhhh” sound. It was so disrespectful. A short, skinny guy with gold dyed hair. Doesn’t even have abs himself. What gives him the right to judge other people? It’s such a terrible sauna. No wonder its rating is so low.

Honestly not a very high bar to get in if you’re fit and Asian. I saw a lot of guys that would’ve been turned down by the secret sauna in Tokyo (IFKYK). Those complaining probably just don’t fit the look or are delulu. 4-stars because the guys could be better.

I’m a European guy with a normal, average body, not muscular. I’m 26, and when I went there nobody seemed interested in me. From what I noticed, muscular and very good-looking European guys get much more attention, so if you’re muscular you’ll probably have better chances. Also, there’s no sauna there — only dark rooms. Almost everyone there is Korean; I didn’t see any tourists from other countries. The entrance fee was 20,000 won.
