My partner and I land in Seoul this Thursday. We would like to hire a local English-speaking guide to take us around the gay scene. Any suggestions?

Hi David,
I'm from S.Korea, not gay myself but I know there's (probably only?) gay scene happening in Itaewon area. I just found this link that might help you to locate the bars:

Unfortunately, Korea is still not so open to same sex relationship, so it might not be so easy to find an obvious places for gay & lesbian scene. Also, you might need to take a bit of precaution on public display of affection as many people are not used to this (and sometime against).
Still, Seoul is exciting city and hope you enjoy your time in Seoul,
Weather must be beautiful there now. :)
Alice
