Parking금정문화회관Geumjeong Arts Center: 186 Parking Spaces, 4 Hours Free for Ticket Holders — and the Discount Desk Closes at 11pm, Not 6pmGeumjeong Arts Center (금정문화회관) in Busan has 186 parking spaces — 125 indoors, 61 outdoors.

ParkingDaegu Arts CenterDaegu Arts Center: Palgong Hall's Balcony Answer Is Section E, Rows 1–6 — and No Parking Rate Is Published AnywhereIn Palgong Hall at Daegu Arts Center (대구문화예술회관), the balcony seats that look straight down on the whole stage are section E, rows 1–6. The 430-seat balcony splits into D (136), E (158) and F (136); D and F run along the side walls at an angle. Parking is restricted to people attending a performance or exhibition, and the centre publishes neither a parking rate nor a space count. Non-member online booking was abolished on 23 March 2026.

Parking하남문화예술회관Hanam Arts Center Seating: Ga, Na and Da Are Blocks, Not Rows — and 62 of the Balcony's 217 Seats Are Marked Restricted ViewAt Hanam Arts Center (하남문화예술회관), ga-yeol, na-yeol and da-yeol are left-to-right blocks rather than rows: ga is on your right facing the stage, na is the centre, da is on your left. Geomdan Hall's 618 stalls seats split ga 199, na 220, da 199, and on the 217-seat balcony every seat in rows 1 and 2 — 62 in all — is officially restricted view, so start at row 3. In Arang Hall, rows 5 to 9 of centre na are the safe pick. Parking is 1,000 won for 3 hours with a ticket. (Checked September 2026)
Parking장충체육관Jangchung Arena Seats and Parking: 48 of the 63 Bays Go to the PromoterOn a concert day you almost certainly cannot park at Jangchung Arena (장충체육관) in central Seoul. Of its 63 bays, 48 are block-booked by the event promoter, and the operator’s own parking page states that general vehicles are restricted during events. Exit 5 of Dongguk University Station on Subway Line 3 connects directly into the building, which makes the subway the only realistic answer. The arena seats 4,507, of which 1,324 are retractable — so zones change from show to show.
Parking수원컨벤션센터Suwon Convention Center Seats and Parking: the Rate Went Up (9,000 Won for 3 Hours)Parking at Suwon Convention Center (수원컨벤션센터) is now 500 won per 10 minutes — 3,000 won an hour, 9,000 for three, capped at 10,000 a day. Guides still quoting 400 won per 10 minutes are out of date against the venue’s own parking page. The cap is reached after 3 hours 20 minutes, so budget 10,000 won for a concert. There is no fixed seating, and all four concerts KOPIS records here were in the ground-floor Exhibition Hall.
ParkingGS칼텍스 예울마루Yeulmaru Grand vs. Small Theatre: Sightlines, and Free Parking for Ticket-HoldersParking at GS Caltex Yeulmaru (GS칼텍스 예울마루) in Yeosu is free for anyone attending a performance or exhibition.

Both totals match the KOPIS record to the seat. Rows 6–13 of Block B on the lower level are the safe default.

KOPIS holds 8,828. There is no fixed seating chart: the plan the ticketing site publishes for your specific show is the only reference.

ParkingXSCALA(엑스칼라)XSCALA seat views in full — where each of the 20 official sight-line photos was taken (September 2026)XSCALA seats 637, and adding up the official seat map's own tables gives exactly that: 407 on the first floor and 230 on the second. The seat map offers sight-line photos from 20 positions — 9 downstairs, 11 upstairs — and this guide puts all 20 in order with the position of each. All 7 wheelchair spaces are on the second floor, and the 42 lobby lockers are token-operated, so buy a token first.
Parking국립정동극장Jeongdong Theater vs Jeongdong Theater Cecil — where 326 and 232 seats come from, plus parking, lockers and access (September 2026)The National Jeongdong Theater and Jeongdong Theater Cecil are separate buildings with nearly the same name: 326 seats at one, 232 at the other, both verified here by adding up the official seat maps. Sixty of the main house’s 326 are orchestra-pit seats that may not go on sale, and its auditorium is below ground in a 1995 building with no lift, so wheelchair users must request the platform lift in advance.
ParkingSeoul Arts CenterIBK Chamber Hall Seat View Guide — All 600 Seats at Seoul Arts CenterIBK Chamber Hall at Seoul Arts Center has 600 seats, 454 downstairs and 146 up.

The 20 side-box seats are drawn on the first-floor plan but counted in the second floor total.
