Five of Gwangalli’s most popular bars are teaming up this weekend for a Halloween-themed bar crawl dubbed the “Killer Pop Pop Crawl.”

The event will take place on Saturday, November 1, across HQ Gwangan, Funny Beer, LA Bar & Grill, Jeff’s, and Bunker.

The bar crawl is free to join, though participants can purchase a 20,000 won ticket that includes a free drink at each of the five venues.

Those who complete the full crawl and submit their tickets will also be entered into a prize draw worth more than 150,000 won. Tickets are available for purchase at any of the participating bars.

Each venue will host its own events throughout the night, including live music, themed drinks, and photo zones.

A costume contest will also be held, with awards in several categories such as scariest, funniest, sexiest, best couple or group, and most original costume.

Participants can enter by uploading a photo with the hashtag #2025GwanganHalloween and tagging the bar’s Instagram account.

Halloween has become one of the liveliest nights of the year in Gwangalli, and this year’s bar crawl aims to continue the tradition with music, drinks, and plenty of costumes filling the beachfront district.
