Most lists only have the big ones in larger neighborhoods, but there are other saunas and gay sleeping rooms throughout the city. I got these listings from World Cuisine, which was published back in 2007, Ivan City, and the informative, though poorly designed, Utopia Asia. If anyone knows of any more, if any of these have closed, or you have better directions to the sauna (some of my translations are pretty poor), please let me know. If you have been to the sauna and you want to contribute more information, please do! I would love to have a contributor writing posts about saunas around Seoul and\/or Korea. <\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>He concludes the list by writing the following<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>Wow&#8230; this is tiring.
