JONGNO, EL BARR GAY  SEúL

Estamos en el siglo XXI, la tolerancia sigue latente y en una sociedad o la reana, ser homosexual algo que no solo te sprtigia a ti, so también a tu faia, haciendo mucho más difícil el proco aceptación (personal y faiar). Hace po vi la película “Whe Night” Song Hee Il que se trenó en 2012, la cual cuenta la historia lo que ocurre dos años spués que una pareja homosexual atada por un gpo homofóbis a la salida un billar, en una lle Jongno; y n ta película no solo scubrí que tá spirada en un hecho real, so también que Seúl tiene un barr llamado Jongno y renocido o “la zona gay” la pal. No obstante, la mayoría “snoce” que las ll Jongno tán llenas numerabl tablecimientos gay, que van s bar tándar y lol karaoke hasta salas DVD, barbaas e clo snas gay.

Seúl tiene cientos bar gay distribuidos en ciertos barrs, pero la mayoría los turistas se faiarizan más n Itaewon, un terror amigable para los extranjeros y que parece tener gente todas part l mundo. El razón gay Itaewon apodado «Homo Hill» y ha sido ttigo una explosión bar gay alto nivel y que amás tar ubido tratégimente, saben cómo tratar a los extranjeros. Y nque muchos creerían que te sector Itaewon todo lo multilor que Corea tiene para oecer, en realidad Jongno, mucho más relajado y scuidado, s duda el “razón gay” Seúl, n numerabl lugar para rnirse cer la Estación Jongno, jto al lado la galería stmentos mil Nakwon.

LA GUíA GAY HOR: SEúL, COREA L SUR

“La zona gay” reana nun fue tan accible o lo ahora, pero según la historia, el hecho que Jongno empezara a renocerse o un sector para homosexual, se be a que en un prcip era un lugar para que las parejas l mismo sexo se rnieran en la déda 1970, cuando la suación para los homosexual era mucho más difícil que ahora.

Hasta entonc, los encuentros homosexual ocurrían manera aleatoria y anónima en lugar públis pero secretos y en nstant mbs ciudad. Pero a medida que la ciudad se re-urbanizaba bajo el printe Park Chunghee, las empras enzaron a mudarse l centro y os lugar vacíos en Jongno, lentamente empezaron a llenarse burl y un gran número bar gay. El Teatro Pagoda (ahora Pagoda Town), se popularizó cuando las personas lo renocieron o un bar don se oecía un pac y sexo gay.

Los beberos homosexual que se enntraban cer, eran igual forma secretos y las personas tenían que ser guiados para saberlo.

THE BT GAY BARS SEOUL

De acuerdo n las listas elaboradas regularmente (y igual forma prohibida por el gobierno Corea l Sur), Jongno cuenta n hasta cien lugar gay en el área, nque difícil obtener un número exacto. El hecho que se oezn hoy en día rerridos por los bar y más ss gay, amás que tos salten a la luz públi, una mutra que “la zona gay” reana no tá ndida, pero sí que la mayoría los reanos no la tienen en cuenta. Jongno en realidad un mundo aparte en el razón Seúl, en un país don se renoce la existencia la homosexualidad, pero no a los homosexual.

El hecho que exista Jongno o e barr gay cierta forma renfortante, un ttamento que los homosexual sí existen, son pac to intifirse y formar una unidad a par la sociedad repriva en la que viven. Viajar a Seúl fácil, cuenta n transporte públi y accible que te pue llevar a cualquier lugar al que nec llegar, y no nos sorpren que Seúl se té nvirtiendo en el nuevo sto gay por excelencia. Valoran mucho el aseo y la apariencia, tanto que a vec difícil discernir hombr heterosexual homosexual.

S embargo, un porcentaje signifitivo la población nservador o algunos son votos cristianos, todavía hay un tabú n rpecto a temas gay.

But a closer look will reveal another world unfaiar to even veteran Jongno-goers, tourists, and rints alike: gay Jongno. Many are unaware that the streets of Jongno are led wh myriad gay tablishments, varyg om standard bars and karaoke jots to DVD rooms, BBQs and even gay snas. While the more obv ‘Homo Hill’ the ternatnal district of Itaewon is often associated wh all thgs gay Korea has to offer, the more laid back and shabby Jongno is whout doubt the heart of Seoul’s gay scene, boastg untls hangouts close proximy to Jongno 3-ga statn, jt next to the Nakwon mil stment ar.

The Korean gay scene has never been as accsible as now is, but the story go that gay Jongno started off as a space for homosexuals to gather the 1970s when thgs were que different. Until then gay enunters happened randomly and anonymoly secret and ever-changg public lotns around town. But as the cy reveloped unr Print Park Chung-hee, bs started movg out of downtown and empty spots Jongno-3-ga slowly filled wh brothels and a handful of gay bars.

One spot particular, Pagoda Theater (now Pagoda Town), soon beme famo as a place where gay sex was soliced and offered. Gay drkg hol nearby were shroud secrecy, and one had to be guid to a gay bar orr to know .
