Counter-First Japanese-Style Bar
- Best seat
- Go straight for the counter (바자리/카운터석) for the most solo-friendly atmosphere.
- Best time
- Before midnight for a calmer rhythm; later for a livelier crowd and more energy.
- Ordering friction
- Expect a slower pace—there’s a “1 hour, 1 drink” ordering rhythm, and draft beer can be temporarily unavailable at times (check in).
- Confidence
