Turns out Seoul, South Korea has become one of (if not THE) best places in the world for swing dance!!! Every night of the week in a different venue there is a PACKED dance room full of incredibly talented Korean Lindy Hoppers! I was BLOWN away by how many amazing swing dancers there were!! I had heard rumors about the Korean swing dance scene while in Japan, but I wasn't sure. I no longer have any doubt. Experiencing Seoul's swing scene firsthand was unquestionably one of the top highlights of my trip! The quantity was impressive--every swing place I went to was packed. But even more impressive was the quality of the dancers. I had to stop dancing so that I could focus on ogling at the rhythm, creativity and flair
of the Korean dancers. It was deeply inspiring. I gotta get (a lot) better and then come back!!!
