Burn is a perfect mix of the 1950s Jazz and Edwardian eras. Located in Gyeongnidan, Itaewon, the Turkish-owned lounge bar’s one-of-a-kind menu offers the finest Cuban cigars and an assortment of drinks.

Dim lighting, neutral colors accented by bits of red and Edwardian furniture provide a sophisticated, intimate environment away from the hustle and bustle of nightlife. Guests will imagine they are among Frank Sinatra and the Rat Pack.

Jazz lovers can fly away to sweet, raspy renditions of their favorites while dressed in their best coats, fedoras and sparkling dresses to accompany the bar’s atmosphere.

The lounge bar perfectly balances sociability and privacy for guests. Guests have the options of sitting towards the front to be closer to entertainment or towards the back for more seclusion.

Burn is opened seven days a week from 6p.m. to 2a.m.  Live music is offered Sunday through Thursday from 9p.m. to 11p.m. and Friday and Saturday from 9:00 p.m. to 12:00 a.m.

Leo’s | Haebangchon

Being a true standout as a food-and-drinks establishment in Itaewon or HBC can be an almost impossible feat, but the entertainment, menu, and vibe at Leo’s might just make it an exceptional hangout worth your while.

Though the usual bar music and indistinct (or wildly animated) chatter are fun forms of entertainment, live acoustics can be a refreshing and laid-back way to chill out, and that’s exactly what Leo’s serves. The owner even had soundproof windows installed to keep the HBC noise out and the soothing sounds in.

The music at Leo’s is jazz-heavy, but it isn’t exclusive. Bands from other genres love to play at the venue with its spacious stage and airy vibe. Customers, on the other hand, can be seated at any table and comfortably watch the show wherever they are in the room.
