Tee Time: 8:40 Players: June, James, Jongseo I played here last month so I was somewhat familiar with the course. I had a lot of fun on this beautiful course last time so I was looking forward to playing again. We had a guy caddie this time and he was pretty good. He said that…

Tee Time: 8:43 Players: David, Xavier, Tae First time playing with this group of Wharton alums that I met via the Wharton Korea club. I also haven’t played South/East in a long time and in some ways it’s not a bad course since it’s shorter than North/West. Xavier is a very good golfer but his…

Tee Time: 6:51 Players: Harry, Wooyoung, Youngjune An early morning tee time. At this time of year, the first tee time is at 6:30am and with tee times 7 minutes apart, we were the 4th tee time of the day. This past Sunday at la vie est belle, I had 2 of the worst drives…

Tee Time: 13:49 Players: Danny, Youngjune, Bryan This is a nice course that is kept up very well. The scenery is beautiful with the hanok style clubhouse so the course is very popular. It’s probably the prettiest public golf course in Korea and as such, the hardest to make a reservation. The course conditions were…

Tee Time: 12:00 Players: Dave, Young Cascadia never fails to impress. This was the first time for Dave and Young and both were very impressed with the clubhouse, cart, course, etc. We had a really nice caddie named 성다현 (?). The course was pretty empty because it had rained the day before and it was…

Tee Time: 7:56 Players: Youngjune, Kate, Maria This was another great round at Gapyeong Benest. Gapyeong has 3 courses – Maple, Pine, and Birch. My friend Youngjune is a member and he seems to dislike Birch. He also dislikes the last few holes of Pine but I thought they were kind of fun actually. They…

Tee Time: 5:53am Players: Eric, James, Woonchul This was an early morning tee time! We were something like the 3rd team out there. My friend Eric picked me up at 4:10am so that we could get there by around 5am and have breakfast before our round. This meant that I got up at around 3:30am…

Tee Time: 13:00 Players: June, Woonchul, Steven This was my first time playing Crystal Valley. Location is in gapyeong so not too far from Seoul (about 65km or 1 hour). The course itself is beautiful. There are lakes, waterfalls, fountains, etc. The clubhouse is also very upscale and nice as well. Locker rooms are also…

Tee Time: 8:40 Players: James, Steven, Hyungoo It’s spring! The cherry blossoms are blooming and the grass is finally starting to turn green. It’s nice! And it was a nice day out on the course. It has been over a year since I played the South/East courses. I generally don’t like these courses and much…
