PC bang (original) (raw)
PC Bang (피씨방, read pee-see-bahng)
Internet caf�s, known as PC Bangs, are a common occurrence throughout the average South Korean city landscape. They're similar to British and American internet caf�s, but most cater more to online game playing for the younger generation of Koreans. On average, use of a PC Bang is priced at around 1,000 Won per hour (about 80 cents USD).
In Korean, "Bang" (방) means room, so the term literally means a room or place for a PC. The meaning room is not exactly accurate; see Bang.
