Maybe you're in Seoul for a quick visit or business trip. Maybe you've moved here. In any case it's always nice to do a little 'sight seeing'.
If this is what you had in mind then get ready to know what your choices are and which places you'd enjoy the most.
Be aware that Koreans are very discreet about this part of their culture. In fact you may count yourself among the few foreigners who even know about it.
1st Stop - Massage Parlors
This is if you want a good massage down there without the worry of catching anything (or paying a fortune!)
You can spot these places easily as they have two barber poles spinning next to each other.
You can go in and ask for a massage (and they'll give it to you promptly.)
You can even try negotiating the price beforehand but unless you speak fluent Korean you're in a bad situation.
Just think of the extra as tourist tax. You're going to be paying that little extra no matter where you go.
You can expect to pay around W50,000 (US50) to W100,000 (US100) depending on where you go.

Why You Won't Like a Seoul Massage
You don't get to pick the Korean woman. This is a big turn-off. In other Asian countries like Thailand you can at least see who will be giving you a "massage". At least you should be able to describe what you like. Not so with the Korean massage.
Most women are older. A lot of the Korean women who work at these parlors are older and not very attractive. If you're looking for a younger woman then those massage parlors are few and far between.
You're more likely to get scammed if you're a foreigner. I've heard of some horror stories involving these places.
In one case the woman told her client to put a wet towel over his head. Soon he discovered that it wasn't her who was giving him a massage but a older man!

2nd Stop- Room Salons
These are lounges where businessmen usually 'conduct business'. Sometimes groups of friends go to these places to relax with beautiful hostesses.
What happens is that you go in a private room with your friends and get to have Korean women sit and drink with you. Now their job consists of just socializing and pouring your drinks.
On the other hand if you're friendly enough they might "hang out with you later."
The downside is that these places are quite expensive - ranging from W200,000 to W1,000,000 (US$200 to US$1000) but the service is second to none.
I recommend going with Korean friends because they'll help you get inside or bring the price lower. You see, for some reason Koreans don't think that foreigners know about all the professional Seoul sex that's going on.

3rd Stop - Singing Rooms
Singing rooms (연습장) is different from the noraebangs (노래방.)
In noraebangs you go singing with your friends in a private room for roughly W20,000 (US$20.)
In the former you go singing with friends and hostesses!
The price is also higher at the same level as the room salons.
In a same way you get to sing with the hostesses who might stay out longer with you if you're "nice" enough. ;-)
There are also rooms called 'kissing rooms' (기스방) where you can go and get make outs for a fee.

4th Stop - Personal Visits
If you ever come to Seoul at night you'll notice a bunch of business cards on the floor.
If you ever are so curious as to pick one up and call it you'll be in for a 'special' surprise.
They are the numbers of freelancers who will come to your place or residence (or a pre-determined place) for you to "get to know each other better."
The cost is usually around W150,000 (US$150) but you can shop for the prices if your Korean is good enough (and if they'll take a foreigner.)

5th Stop - Glass Windows
Now this one is interesting. You basically walk down a street with glass windows. You can see women sitting on the other side of the glass window. If you like her you can chat her up and take it from there.
You have to negotiate a price but you can expect to pay W150,000 (US$150) at least for a short-time. You also might have to pay more because you're a foreigner.

Seoul Sex - Angmas
This is the pinnacle of the professional Seoul sex world. You go into a secluded 'hotel' and ask for a room. The price is usually W220,000 (US$220) and you get a pleasant surprise.
A Korean woman there is waiting to take you in, bathe you and provide you with whatever "room service" you may need.
Once you're finished you can get a massage from a blind man (don't ask me why) and spend the night. You also get free beer and cigarettes at certain places.)
The trick is to have a Korean friend show you where a good one is. You can spot Ang-mas (or '앙마') in the back streets of Seoul. They'll have a sign that say '앙마' and the place should look like a hotel.

Final Thoughts on Seoul Sex
Korea isn't known for its' sex industry. Prostitution is illegal in Korea and so you'll have to tread carefully.
In any case just be smart about looking for a place to go. Have a Korean friend show you the way (he'll know!) Some of the places are worth the money but you'll have to hunt for them.
Worst comes to worst you can always go to 'Hooker Hill' in Itaewon.
