    Korean guy moving to Hong Kong

    I'm Korean guy moving to Hong Kong shortly. Can anyone recommend good way for me to adjust to Hong Kong living? I would like to know where many Koreans live and hang out. Also would like to know if there are any other Koreans or Korean-gyopo on this discussion board.

    Are there many Korean style bar/club/restaurants in Hong Kong? What is best location to live as Korean? I prefer modern and very clean. Many Korean difficult to meet/date in Hong Kong?

    actually according to my korean friend, hong kong is not too bad for korean food, even korean street - kimberley rd is a bit small, korean grocery is pricey, you can get korean cd and films here at reasonable price, you should go to uk as korean food/stuff is almost non existant

    though street style Ddeok Bok Ee is not really avaiable, i have to make my own ver (with almost the same ingedients).

    I'd welcome any recommendations but my korean friends and I have yet to find good authentic korean food here (korean bbq aside as that's quite simple)

    oh gawd, you've revived my craving for kam ja tang (pork bone soup) and I haven't found any in HK.

    Annyeong haseyo!
    there's a street in Tsim Sha Tsui packed with korean restaurants.
    But you'll see, local food is awesome as well.
    And there are at least 2 other Korean guys on Geoexpat

    yes, it's called kimberley street ( not road), there's a few restuarants and grocery stores, but it's not really packed
