Unique Date Idea in Gangnam & Apgujeong: Song-Through Cheongdam Lounge Musical Pub
Looking for something fun to do in Gangnam or Apgujeong? I recommend a visit to Song-Through Cheongdam Lounge, a unique musical pub!
Song-Through is located in Apgujeong Rodeo and Cheongdam-dong.
I'd always thought of musicals as being like the ones in Daehakro, so I was surprised to find a musical pub like this in Apgujeong Rodeo.
Song-Through Cheongdam Lounge

I had a reservation for the 6:30 PM show, and when I arrived around 6:10 PM, there was already a line!
Seating is first-come, first-served, so if you arrive late, you might end up in the back.

They offer a variety of highballs, as well as non-alcoholic drinks like cherry coke, iced tea, and Americano. They also have beer and wine.
What I ordered:
Lemon Cream Shrimp: ₩23,000
Cold Brew: ₩9,000
Budweiser: ₩8,500
It's a real musical lounge where the performance space and pub are combined!
It seems like the first 30 minutes are for ordering and preparing the food.
For the 30 minutes before the show starts, they play musical highlight videos on a large screen. I was so excited to see clips from 'Dracula'!
They played fun videos, so waiting for the food wasn't boring at all.
The cream shrimp came out before the show started!
The stage isn't very large, but because the actors are singing and acting right in front of you, the energy feels really powerful! Their singing and stage presence were amazing.
Around the end of the first act, they held a raffle with the numbers we were given at the start. I didn't win, but the little games made the performance feel even more special.
The actors didn't just stay on stage, they came down into the audience to interact with us and sang right next to us, which was so much fun! The immersion was incredible, and the fun was doubled! It was so vivid. Sometimes it might be awkward if the audience isn't very responsive, but they kept up their high energy. It made me realize that being a musical actor is not easy.
Kang Geon actor's cross-dressing was especially memorable! His funny acting and humor really livened up the atmosphere.
The actors were truly powerful and full of energy!
They sang a lot of Kinky Boots songs, and I kept hoping they'd sing one I knew, but I was a little disappointed that I didn't know the songs.
The audience members even participated in the performance by turning on their phone flashlights! We shouted for an encore three times, and at the end, I felt a little emotional.
I think I got emotional because I saw how hard the actors were working. I also felt moved when they sang so well.
If you like musicals in Daehakro, you'll definitely be satisfied here! I think it was even more fun than a typical Daehakro musical!
It's a really great place for a date. It would be perfect for celebrating a special occasion, and there's a photo time with the actors afterward, which is great for making memories!
Honestly, I think the price is very reasonable. When I checked the reservation price, the tickets are normally ₩30,000, but they're offering a 50% discount event, making them ₩15,000.
You can enjoy a high-quality performance while ordering drinks like coffee, cocktails, and beer, and the food is good too. It's a great place to relax and have fun! It's a unique bar where you can enjoy drinks, food, and a performance all in one place! Truly the best value!
This is a great date spot, and it would be fun to come with friends too. There were even families with kids there.
I recommend it to anyone looking for a musical in Apgujeong Rodeo or Cheongdam, or anyone who wants to experience a unique musical pub. It has a different charm than musicals in Daehakro.
The actors' energy made me feel excited, and I felt like I had a special day.
