In reply to TravelGirl88. @Travel Girl88 : Correction: 'bathing with the opposite sex" is not common in Korea, in regards to bathhouses. I'm not sure how I feel about coed bathing- never been in that situation.

In reply to ehimelife. Sorry, I haven't had time to check comments this past week. Koreans aren't Japanese in that sense. It's a much more conservative culture. Germany and parts of Europe have coed bathhouses though.

You deleted my previous question – you must have thought I was spamming you (sorry) – but I was actually quite serious. Are there any co-ed nude bathhouses in Korea? I know there are in Japan, because I’ve been to some – quite the eye-opener :O – but I don’t know about Korea.

So…um…how do I put this? It sounds like bathing with the opposite sex is quite common in Korea, but is there anywhere where both sexes bathe together? And if so, would you ever go there? You’d have to be prepared to see some Korean sausage, of course… 😉
