Places to Play - Witches Brew Board Game Cafe

This store isn't a designated Magic shop but is registered with Wizards.
They might not be able to provide the same level of tournament or product support as some of the dedicated card stores but they do have one advantage over them.

The Brew part of witches brew stands for beer! 

They also look to take the cafe part a lot more seriously than most other stores.

They are located near Gyeongin University and Gyeong-in National University Subway stop. Sometimes referred to as Gyeongin Dae.

Places to Play - Taken Board Game Cafe

Wizards refer to this place as Tycoon rather than Taken. Just reading it in Hanguel leaves that open for interpretation.

Taken is not close to any subway stops and looks like it would require a bus/taxi ride on top if you are not in the area. The closest station is Jemulpo on the Incheon stretch of line 1 (the dark blue line) a couple of stations away from Juan station where Duel Land is located.

Their phone number is 032-864-3369 and email is ragenet7791@yahoo.co.kr

Unfortunately I don't have a map for them.

There FNM is standard (W10,000) and starts at 8:00 pm.

Places to Play - Duel Land Incheon

Duel Land is located near Juan (주안) station on line 1 (the dark blue line) of the Seoul Subway system. This is on the Incheon section of the line rather than the Sinchang line when the two branch of at Guro.

The map provided looks fairly decent. Take exit 4 and it is not that far. I have fallen for that trap before though so a picture of the street/store front would be nice.

Places to Play - Dive Dice Hyehwa

Edit: This store has changed ownership and has now been renamed too Red Dice


Not to be confused with their sister store Dive Dice Hongdae which I rate very highly.

I have heard some complaints about this store. Nothing that sounds like a deal breaker but it is probably amplified by the fact most Korean magic shops are awesome. I feel they always go out of their way to look after me at Dalmuti.

Dive Dice Hyehwa is located near Hyehwa station on the light blue line (line 4) in Northern Seoul. Sometimes this area is also referred to as Daehak Ro (대학로).

Get out at Exit 4 and then follow that road until you get to the main street and then turn right. 


It's easy to miss and walk past. It's signage is on the front of the building on the third floor and it shares the building with a Norae Bang which hogs most of the first floor signage.
