Booking a Seoul Club Table Without a Korean Phone Number
Last updated 3 min readWritten by the Club ACE Seoul team
No Korean SIM? You can still reserve a table at a Gangnam club. Book Club ACE Seoul through site chat, KakaoTalk, WeChat or LINE — no local number required.
Quick answer
You do not need a Korean phone number to reserve a table at Club ACE Seoul. Message us in the chat on this site, or on KakaoTalk, WeChat or LINE, tell us your date and group size, and the team confirms from there. Everything works over data or hotel Wi-Fi.
Why the usual advice does not work for visitors
Most Korean booking flows assume you have a local number for verification, which is exactly what a traveller landing at Incheon for four nights does not have. Renting a SIM, waiting for a verification code, or asking a hotel concierge to call on your behalf all add friction to something that should take two minutes.
That is why we take reservations through chat instead. Nothing on our side needs a Korean number — the conversation itself is the booking, and it works the same whether you are messaging from Tokyo a week ahead or from a taxi in Gangnam an hour before.
Four ways to reach us, all without a local SIM
The chat window on this site is the simplest: open it, write in your own language, and the team answers there. If you prefer an app you already use, KakaoTalk and WeChat both reach us at ID aksen1010, and we are on LINE as well. Pick whichever is already on your phone.
We answer in Korean, English, Chinese, Japanese and Russian, so there is no need to translate your message before sending it. Write the way you normally would and we will reply in the same language.
What to tell us so the booking is quick
Two details settle most of it: the date you want and how many people are coming. From there the team can tell you what is available and give you a quote for a table, since pricing depends on the night, group size and where in the room you sit.
It also helps to leave a contact we can reach you on — a messenger ID is fine, no phone number needed. Chat threads on your side can be lost if you clear your browser or switch phones, so an ID means we can still confirm your booking afterwards.
Before you arrive
Bring your passport; ID is checked at the door for foreign guests. Dress smart casual or above, as shorts, slippers, sportswear and caps may be refused. Entry is ₩20,000 per person at the door, and Visa, Mastercard, Amex, JCB, UnionPay and Korean cards are all accepted inside.
We are at 597 Gangnam-daero, Seocho-gu, Seoul, three minutes from Sinsa Station Exit 4, open Tuesday to Sunday from 11pm to 8am and closed Mondays. Show a taxi driver the Korean address 강남대로 597 if your pronunciation is not landing.
